      How do you think they make baby apes ?

      Having now got a wonky sense of smell courtesy of COVID, I'll not wash for a week then stand very close to the Memsahib. I'll report on the feedback, in particular how anxious I feel following said feedback.

      Well, watched again tonight and to be fair it was consistent.............really cannot take to this. Anyway, only another week or so and the next 'guest Richard' takes over. 

       

      Stephen Mangan apparently. Much better methinks.

      Xanda and Richard have a rapport that comes from knowing each other for years. I wonder if Xanda was asked who he wanted in place of Richard ?

    I found out this morning that certain posh motor bikes have air conditioning. How can that be necessary?

    1. NHY 581

      NHY 581

      To be fair, they probably have a fairing on the front the size of a barn door. Hot air will rise off the engine and this coupled with the lack of air circulation makes for a warm time on warm days. 

       

      My late '70s BMW 1000 and my mid '80s Kawasaki 750 both suffered like this due to their respective fairings. 

       

      My 'naked' bikes have never suffered thus. 

       

      Either that or they ain't going quick enough.

    I was minding my own business earlier today, sat in my own railway room, contemplating an aesthetically pleasing pannier tank, when I heard an advertisement on the wireless for the LNER! Yes, the LNER! The effrontery, bringing the name of that railway uninvited, into my own private sanctum!

      If one were to see a Scotsman utilising a jet pack, pray to god you would have time  to discourage the Memsahib from looking up. 

       

      In relation to the cul de sac so named, I believe it is recognition of the origins of the metail used to produce the man hole covers and drains.

    If you drop something on the floor when you're young, you just bend down & pick it up.
    But at my age, I stand there for 5 minutes, deciding whether I actually need said item anymore.....

      Due to a few 'issues' I was presented with a telescopic magnet LED last Christmas to assist in the retrieval of dropped items. 

       

      You can stand and stoop rather than bend. Its proven quite successful. 

       

      However, in standing there, moving the stick from side to side, it presents an image similar to someone crossing a minefield, Tobruk, 1941.
