Hang on Sue !. I thought you were planning on getting a Bicycle... and now there is Cycle hanger at the end of our road...

You have no excuse...


.. Bicycles and Ale are never a good combination... though it seems to be a good idea until you have to push the thing home. :)

Which suggests that it's probably a good shop name (even if it is grim). You (who I suspect has no interest in yoga and sports wear) noticed it and remembered it. That's a catchy name.

oh, but there is science involved...it's not just pretty colours and exclusive price tags. It's about ergonomically designed clothes and all sorts of other factors..


Did you know - for example "In sport, compression clothing has been designed to improve recovery following exercise and training. A similar concept applies to the tight-fitting shirts worn by a number of the teams in the finals of the 2007 World Cup for Rugby Union, with claims of increasing energy levels through transfer of ions to the body".


I quite like watching the rugby, hadn't though there was a reason for their tight tops....

I quite like the concept of www.fatladattheback.com (although it seems they specialise in cycling).


Personally, I like swimming, but wearing the right gear for sport can make you more inclined to actually use your gym membership....

I'll definitely have a look when it opens and maybe find some inspiration.


Maybe we could have a ED runners club (beginners-and-not-too-far for starters...

      Do you have any binoculars?  My first ever sighting of swifts was when I was lying in the park, trying out some 10x25s.  Nothing at all  within plain sight, but when I was playing around with the focus -- presumably for clouds or planes -- suddenly there they were.   I've still never heard any in real life though.  The sample I heard on the BBC website sounded fairly high frequency and not very loud, so I suppose I might miss some; but then there have been precious few reports I've seen here of any being heard.  The only one I remember is Jenny1's last year.

      None of that makes any sense. Rumour and vibes-based governance...   Meanwhile, thanks in part to the NIMBY tendencies of certain councillors, 23 London council areas saw 0 (zero) new housing units under construction in Q1 2024. Pitiful. About 724,000 (net) people moved to the UK in 2024, a sizeable chunk of them to London. The already high demand for housing is increasing, and the supply isn't changing at all. Rent prices (and therefore taxpayer funds paid to private landlords through Housing Benefit) are going up...and new housing units are objected to because they're "visible" and because a fear that rich foreign students will live there.

      Lots of hoverflies (that look like drone honeybees) about today. Also, tiny (< .5cm) bees/wasps

      2 sister cats missing.

      By Delainie · Posted

      Posting for friend. Both missing since Thursday eve. Last seen in back garden on Soames Street, their garden backs onto gardens in bellenden road, avondale rise and copleston road. Gladys went missing a month or so ago and I know she was chased by a large black and white cat and again he is back in my garden and now both my cats missing. They are both chipped and neutered. No collars.  Thank you.
