This appeared in my inbox this morning after my run...

I'm going to ask Santa for a new pair ;)

Good timing actually as my last 'retired' pair of running shoes, after being demoted to walking shoes, have just started to fall apart after having covered getting on for 2000 miles both in running and walking service...

I foresee a visit to our local running shop :D

I'd be writing to the shoe manufacturers and tell them to make shoe mileage at least as good as tyres!! Or is it just a load of cobblers? :-D

I bought some replacement 3 core to make up a new existentialist cable for one of my generators. I think it might be over specified for my requirements. I'm not sure my genny needs 'nuclear' cable :shock: :lol:

I've seen one or two cars with such wheel treatment. One an Astra, think the other a big SUV (maybe a Range Rover, can't remember) in both cases it was heck if a contrast against a drab body colour (grey or black)

Indeed I could Matt, or I could fit two Rolls Royce Turbofan engines on the roof to achieve the same effect!! :-D

I was in Ellesmere for a few days, seeing Mum and other Family members. This morning there was a glorious sunrise there, so I took a few photos over a couple of hours.

Had cause to leave through the back door today, on my way to my son's house.
On return was rather surprised to see healthy looking flowers - that should have been there months ago and weren't.

Les pleasing was all this s**t that someone has piled on where I have cleared the weeds and planted flowers.

Not my land, public property but I have cleared and planted it it the behest of a disabled neighbour. He had tried but fell over, smashed his hip and a couple of ribs and can barely walk now.
