Just back from a funeral of an old mate. Died in his sleep, no warning, fit lad, 60yo. You never know.

Well, I'm on a home visit again. Not as tough as last time but damn, still hard (and a bit hurty :( )

But - M&S Hot Cross Buns for lunch and proper coffee!!

Pizza for tea - really must learn to make my own cos whilst I'm perfectly capable of eating a whole pizza, arguably, no one (especially not me) NEEDS to eat a whole pizza (even if it is extra thin!!)

And; there's fleurs in my jardin :) :) :)

Had to move into the shade it was a smidge warm in direct sun even at 14h !! LOL LOL

Got to decide on Monday morning if I feel ok to come home for good on Thursday - right now, honestly not remotely sure. I get to see my main physio in the centre before I see the doctor to make the decision and I think I will try and talk to the physio I'll see here once I'm home cos he might be able to help. Nerve wracking!!! Wrong decision could set me back, but I really do want to be home and eating 'normal' food (not a whole pizza every night though!! Just better-for-me food than I get at the centre!).

Hopefully the main physio will be able to help me - and I do need to get some big ice packs for the knee!! I lent mine to someone in resort and whilst she gave me back my crutches, she forgot the ice packs :( :(

Fleurs :wub:

HCB, good coffee and view :) :)

I did cover the scar with a scarf, but still had to move into the shade!!

PIZZAAAAA !!! Soooooo want to try making some for the freezer :) :) :)

Yesterday actually but meh.

I sold some van roof bars , collection only due to their length. A chap arrived on a Transalp, secured them to the bike crossways and off he went.

The German TUV inspection sounds like it works in the same way as our MOT, any known fails get removed before the test, His was, there may be more, a pannier held on with a home made bracket.

Edited for grammar

Coffee on the terrace!! Now RTTL on the terrace :) :)

Almost out early enough to see the sun come over the mountain, missed it by about 15 mins - time it took to organise coffee, a sort of breakfast and hobble my way out to the deck !! :lol:

Day two of spiffing the F350, pretty much all done except the roof (which I'm too short to see anyway)

Also dealing with the fact that I have a $300 fill-up in my future sometime this month. Oh well. Cheaper than dealing with the aftermath of cleaning up after a nuke...

Yesterday at The Banbury Run. 400 bikes rode the selection of circuits, only one of which included the Rising Sun hill. Great day out.

Pulled my fucking back this morning.

Currently can barely move.

Which is especially aggravating because I'm in Chile supposedly being supportive of family going through a very bad time and I'm currently completely useless.

Ffs. :(
