    'Her indoors' does not drive so I had to go back later to collect all by myself!

    2. Arterial bleeding combined with them owing you money (it is a judgement call on how much cash warrants their being collected).

    Tough love maybe but there are limits.
    HUH? Unfathomable reason indeed... you'd never EVER loan a man your bike, no bl**dy way!

    Reason two, yes, perhaps depending on the sum owed, but again, I would not lend a man so much money that I cannot afford to loose it...

    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    A hilly 40 miles, my first proper ride back. Confidence returning, though not sufficient to spark any pedals just yet. Only hit 42mph on the big descent to Blaenlechau(now there's a name lovely), bit of scaredy cat braking when in the past I might have let it go and gone for the big 50! I wonder why.....
    Wrecked now though, gonna have to drink beer!
