    Pippi, have a great journey home :) MrA's just called me and has been taking the mickey out of me and whether or not I'll manage to make it up the hill, so the gauntlet has been thrown down, I think I need to head out to the shed and get some sneaky practice in ;)

    Update: Phew, the bike is out of the shed, I have a bike, a helmet, a basket, a lock (complete with key!!) and I borrowed my neighbour's very industrial looking pump and hopefully the tyres will stay up and I think I'm going to have to take some painkillers as my back is already hurting. Grrr. What a wooss! But, at least I'm sort of the way there.

    I might have to try getting on the damned thing now!!!
  • He he he KK

    I'm doing something very novel, well for me. I've been in a lift (first one since October) and on an escalator (not sure when ever on one of those last!) and now I'm in a global type coffee shop - very unusual too :) making most of free Internet!

    Left granny early early popped in before train - when we left she was settling in for a nice doze :) all cosy and comfy loved ones around :) lots of hugs and love about. Xx

    Oooh get me, I managed to cycle (and walk a little bit) over to MrA's house to surprise him and demand tea and cuddles :) He was very impressed (as well he should be, it nearly killed me!!). Coming back home just now is far easier, it's downhill....but at least I that it is like riding a bike :)

    KK, you're adorably potty at the moment, long may it continue :)

    Pippi, having a quiet little laugh at the lift and the escalator - are you using the walkways at the airport?

    I'm glad you saw granny comfy. It must be hard to leave her, but you're leaving her well cared for and well loved.

    have a good and a safe journey home Pippi

    KK it's sounding all exciting, it's probably a good job that we don't live near you as we'd probably be at the side of the road cheering you all on in your first meeting :) good luck, i probably won't be around tomorrow because i have wedding to attend.

    I live near KK! I haven't met her yet, but I could embarrass her horribly :rotfl:

    Its okay really, KK, I wouldn't dream of it. Hope it goes wonderfully well tomorrow.
