Bizarre thinking, I might nip down and get some paint - my wife is off work and will be getting bored once she has cleaned the whole house :D

Take it on the chin Steve and have a break from the dribblers and spitters that come in your shop.
An old neighbour of mine who calls now and then has been stopped from calling as he cant talk without spitting and foaming at the corners of his mouth :old:
(Must stop putting toilet duck in his tea.)

You could contact the nhs to see if they want to buy any beds.

Covid - 21 is where it is at now, or it will be in a couple or three months.
The sequel is seldom better, but this time it will fuck you proper....We are on the way out with this shit...…..19 was found still alive after 17 days in a cruise ship cabin, so good luck with all this shit folks, can`t help thinking we need to be enjoying ourselves because we are fucked anyways.
Still, day 2 on the last days of life on Earth was once again stunningly beautiful......Remember, when we are gone, the rest of life can proliferate and diversify without us fucking it all up again, we all deserve to die, every last muthafucking one of us.

A couple of lines from a second world war film have always stuck in my mind. It`s on a french beach with the British getting bombed and straffed and one guy whines "I don`t want to die I don`t want to die" and a voice pops up with "You bloody might have to ".

Judging by the way some humans behave , the seagulls probably got more intelligence :roll:

I managed to get a cheapish new battery for my Buell as the previous one was just about f****d on Saturday. My HD replacement for the original was never as good. :roll:

I may not be able to ride it without being stopped and questioned now, but l hate the thought of not having a Buell that runs and a two wheeled back up to my car. As luck would have it, our regular local battery supplier also fits them for the local ambulance service so can be regarded as an essential provider. ;)

And why are bicycle shops essential? Mind you, adding offys to the list is a plus.

Anything that means key workers aren't forced to use public transport, especially in flattish cities like London where NHS staff have been supplied with bikes to travel to work.
Maybe less useful in the Land of Mountains and Dragons.
