Really good that you are doing so well. You have definitely made real progress.Still circling the higher 6's ..6.8 this morning .
Sun was shining this morning, so took the little e-bike out for a test run.
Lovely little cycle along the Thames Riverbank walk in the sunshine
Cold & a touch windy, but very enjoyable .
Pedestrian & cycle lane for miles heading west.
Ave speed 5 MPH fast enough when sharing space.
Max speed under power was 13 MPH
Top speed while pedalling 18 MPH..above two on proper roadway.
I kinda felt comfortable..still a little twitchy around certain vehicles..but it is easing.
( I find the e-bike to feel safer & more publicly acceptable then the e-scooter.
So much so I'll be moving that on for someone more adventurous to enjoy , soon.)
I can cycle normally, but nowhere near as far as I could .
So nice to able to extend the ride so effortlessly.
It's a real game changer for me.
Already considering put a few pennies away and getting a more modern one around birthday time first quarter of next year.
But for now, rather pleased with how this has worked out.
Enjoy the day.
Chuckle for the gallows humor of post.It's been an anus horribilis for me with constant piles since August.
Roland's a big un, ain't he ....Fbg 6.6
This rat avoids the cat, the fox, and the badger. Here, he is timing his moves to evade the cat, Midnight.
Rat & Cat (I'm sure I smell a rat...)
How did Midnight not smell that rat to the side of him? He walked past it! Does Midnight have a sense of smell?
Or is he guardian to all creatures in my back garden....
Creative is a digital painting in Procreate of autumn!
Time for a cuppa.

Good that you feel a lot better today @dunelmGood morning everyone on a bright and sunny start to bin day here in the dark and dangerous north. Took to my bed early yesterday having slept for most of the day and didn’t wake for 10 hours. Arm still hurts but apart from that, so far, so good. Luckily a pneumonia jab is only a once in a lifetime event - and no wonder! Sadly I missed the demolition of the blast furnace over in Redcar and had to watch it on the beeb: Demolition derby.
Dentist at lunch time - just a follow up but I bet hard cash will be involved.
I did though manage to do a bit of art so here it is so far. Have a great day if you can. I am hopeful that a tasty brew of koffy will soon be mindfully made and consumed.

Thank you @Krystyna23040Good that you feel a lot better today @dunelm
Tried lupin flour some months ago. Keto friendly but, sadly, not Ann friendly. Shame to have to keep younger siblings waiting in the cold. I still have the mini pumpkins that Neil bought for me a week or so, or 3 ago. I will get around to doing something with them, but haven't felt too keen on the idea so far.Good morning and I hope you are all sitting comfortably, especially you Derek. @dunelm good to hear that you slept well and seem to be on the road to full Dunelmness. I'm sure Mrs Miggins will be delighted to see you back to normal. Thanks for sharing the latest development of your art. @gennepher thank you for the creative and video. A whole other nighttime social life in that garden previously hidden to yourself and us. @Krystyna23040 great fbg and good news on the dry start. Our son sent us some video and photos of the concert so not totally missed. School pickup yesterday was cold and wet but good to have the two grandchildren here. Today should be dry but grandson's class is always about 20 minutes later than his sister's. Hers are the youngest and always ready waiting outside just before 3.00. Long cold wait for most who also have older siblings. Today is US Thanksgiving so very quiet here and plenty of turkey and pumpkin pie consumption. I like turkey but the pumpkin pie I tried didn't float my boat. Today I will mostly be persuading JKP lupin flour is the latest must have ingredient to clog up cupboards, waste money, time and hope on. At the price of the attached much less than most items the Avon lady delivers. Not that I ever notice you understand but knowledge is power and best to be well briefed for PMQs. Have a great day if at all possible.

So glad that you are feeling better and getting over the after effects of that pneumonia jab. Odd how these jabs affect different people different ways. I had no ill effects when I had mine last year (I think it was). I rarely seem to have ill effects from jabs, I save my efforts for foods and ingredients.Good morning everyone on a bright and sunny start to bin day here in the dark and dangerous north. Took to my bed early yesterday having slept for most of the day and didn’t wake for 10 hours. Thank you for your kind thoughts but after lots of rest and drinking water I think that I am over the nastiness of it. Arm still hurts but apart from that, so far, so good.

It was the side effects. I'm intolerant, not allergic, to many of the more exotic ingredients. They produce unfortunate effects on my insides (so what's new with me?) and serious headaches.Shame about the lupin flour. Was it the side effects or taste?
