I thought that Facebook was so enraged by this picture that all their hard disks melted! Maybe their warning to me about it was because they feared these consequences?

I thought that it was me looking at the ladies lingerie adverts that done it!

The thing is, with energy prices rising the way they are people will and are insulating their houses to save money! It's just a bunch of nobody's looking for their 15 minutes of fame!

May have to install a seat belt onto the bog!

Famous last words, mate.

One for @Six30......

We did a homemade curry on Saturday, well, a turkey curry and a vegetable curry to go with it. I think that the decision to just throw the last 4 of my missus' home grown chillies in with the veggie curry was possibly a mistake! And we've got part 2 for dinner tonight! Maybe need to put the bog roll in the fridge overnight!

No problem..........there won't be any fuel to run the cars anyway!

We had various hospital appointments today and then food shopping, so no bike action today. Possibly out on the eBikes tomorrow but Sunday is looking a bit soggy here, so we may end up hibernating! Hopefully back out on the bike next week though.

I quite like the scramblers, but, as you say, they're a bit heavy and I'm not sure how much offroad abuse they could take. And it would take a lot more than a scrambler to make me look cool!

The Geordie postman Pat vid always cracked me up!

I'm sure that's not true, @Sofia.

Me and a couple of mates used to go down the pub on Friday evenings after we'd played squash and neck a few beers before closing. One of my mates missed squash one Friday but turned up down the pub with this kind of plastic mask thing on his face. He looked like he was starring in the Phantom of the Opera. We asked him what it was all about, so he said that he'd broken his nose and fractured a cheek bone! So we asked how? Anyway, the previous Friday, after we'd had a few down the pub after squash, he got up during the night for a pee. Being a bit unsteady on his feet he decided to sit down to pee. However, he fell asleep sat on the bog and then fell off and smacked his head on the corner of the bath as he went down! We tried not to laugh..........

Unfortunately the dementia didn't really start until quite recently and there's no way that they can now afford to move back. They're close to the beach, so they can walk down there for some fresh air, so it's not a bad place to live.

The idea was to downsize their house and buy something cheap up there and use the difference in price to buffer them in preparation for retirement. It was all working out OK until this happened. Obviously this scuppered all those plans!

I think the fact that she was worried about her drinking and reached out to her GP for help makes me think that she was given poor advice, but, when all is said and done, she should have done something about it herself. Easy for me to say, I guess. But the damage is done, so it's all a bit academic now, unfortunately.

I'm about 32" in the leg and 6'1" tall and around 14st. Secondhand bike prices are very variable here. Some are reasonable, but there's always someone trying to punt a shed out as a "classic" for silly money! Seems to be more choice of bikes around the 600cc capacity here. Most of the smaller capacity bikes are either proper trials bikes or motocross bikes.

Sorry @Swagman, I appear to have hijacked your thread! Sorry mate.

It's only that clean because the dealership washed it when it was in for its service the other week!

Yeah, he can't leave her on her own for more than a few minutes as who knows what she'll do. Their daughter moved up to their place from London earlier in the year, so he's got some intelligible company in the evenings when she's back from work. They only moved from Kent to Redcar a couple of years back, so they've got no friends up there. I think that he struggles.
