I have been up and round the circuit at Oliver’s Mount several times - all at the posted maximum speed - they are, after all, public roads when not closed for racing. Cafe at the top gives a great view over the bay of Scarborough and serves excellent food. Downside if you have an imobiliser is that the transmitter interferes with the signal between key and bike and you have to push it about a quarter of a mile along the road before you can get your bike to startDo you ever get a chance to take that mean machine of yours round Oliver's Mount?
We had a transmitter on the top.

Thank you for the cricket link @dunelm. (England's batsmen seem to be continually hooked by India's spinners) Is the higher fbg linked to vaccine? Mine, and a few others, took a few days to stabilise - up to 14 in my case. I didn't know what to make of Grayson Perry until I watched his documentary/reflections on Manhood in modern society. His work helped some parents of young suicide victims and older men with that potential.Good morning everyone from a currently dull start to what may be a promising day here in the dark and dangerous north
The wonder wheel of lies and deception came in at 6.8 this am - hm!
Had to quickly skim everything to catch up but - good landscape @Muddy Cyclist even though I can’t see the cricket pitch, fabulously cold scenery @geefull and more joy on the beach from @gennepher.
Trip to York was a bit of a let down - everything was closed apart from a new interactive art installation where you wander round a series of portacabins, arms exposed, avoiding all the actors dressed as soldiers until someone jumps out, jabs your arm with a needle and orders you to sit on a chair for 15 minutes. Utterly pointless. Nearly as bad as that tent thing by Tracey Emin. To cap it all, I missed last nights episode of Grayson Perry’s Art Club.
A fish this morning - that’s not doing so well either. Have a wonderful day if you can. Koffy is calling.

Sorry to hear about the man flu... There's a few diabetics reporting sugar spikes (me being one) but after 24-36 hours all back to normal. I'll be interested in hearing the effect jab 2 has...mine coming 2nd week May...Yes, I expect that the higher fbg is due to the vaccine. I am quite tired as well - might just go back to bed and pretend that I have extensive man flu symptoms but it wouldn’t wash. Quite like Grayson Perry and his quirky, autobiographical art - not sure about his alter ego, Clair, though. We need eccentrics - it’s not just elephants and rhinos that need saving.
Excellent - We sometimes tied a fluorescent tube under a quarter wavelength HF antenna, hoisted it up on 48 ft masts - then began transmitting morse - nearly as good as Ritchie Blackmoor’s RainbowYes, and OMT as we called it, was a relatively a low power transposer.
I worked at the HF station at Skelton for a time and there was so much stray RF about that the electric field caused the fluorescents tubes in the store unconnected to any circuit to light up.
We used to reckon that's why there were so many odd characters working for transmitter group.
See I have given you a belated free one!Sorry to hear about the man flu... There's a few diabetics reporting sugar spikes (me being one) but after 24-36 hours all back to normal. I'll be interested in hearing the effect jab 2 has...mine coming 2nd week May...
I asked for a sympathy massage and got entirely the oppositeHope you're feeling better soon.
Thank you! Appreciated. @muddycyclist before I forget , I dreamt about Andy Pandy, Bill and Ben with someone on a mountain bike following the fire engine out of Trumpton about to put a fire out in the basket...See I have given you a belated free one!
For my part I am just following the advice of Jaques in As You Like It - one man in his time plays many parts - this one is the part of Simeon the Sympathy Seeker attempting to avoid ‘jobs” - it never goes down well with the audience of one.Sorry to hear about the man flu...

Happy Birthday Mrs JGood Morening Ladies and Gentlemen.
A peanut fueled 7.0 this morning and I don't care.
Today is Mrs J's birfday therefore the day will be filled with excesses of all sorts. Mrs J celebrates in style and so ( whether they want to or not ) does everyone around her.
Me is far too much of a gentleman to mention her age, but me's are not........here's a little rhythm stolen from a band.
Will I still need you?
Will I still keep you?
When you're 64.
Of course, because I can't use the washing machine.

Enjoy the break, second dog walk and the Montezuma's when they eventually come @Krystyna23040 . Fortunately, we all have different tastes. Try as I may I can't like very dark chocolate apart from Waitrose 1 (is that my Waitrose bias?). I wasn't aware that I needed sweet (ish?) tastes so much. A pack of each of the cookies is arriving today since we can't bake anything close and I can't stand erythritol. I found the bars excellent for no change in bg but a waste of the effort involved in eating.5.5 this morning. Have already done the most important thing today - ordered a supply of Montezuma 100% chocolate.
Have actually got a lunch break today so looking forward to the second dog walk of the day between classes.
