As an aside - I've never really had a "needs to be" kind of list for a partner, but I've now put computer techy and able to help with bike mechaniky stuff on that list!! (Only other thing is tall )

Bollox, I am distraught!

I am no longer 'puter techie, don't do bike mehanikie stuff, and am a short arse. Am I off the list?

Never ask anyone on here their age - just in case it destroys a dream (or a fantasy!!)

True, but unkind.

No fantasy here, I am old enough to be your Dad, and maybe your Grandad. But oldies can dream .....

Sorry but bringing it to you gently meant large words i would need a dictionary for.

I didn't need to know that - might have been my fantasy!

My horrible cat fetched in a live baby rabbit and decided it was fun to teach me to catch it.

At least you've got a new pet you can replace the cat with.

My Jack Russell killed a mouse and gifted it to my wife. When she saw it on the settee next to her she screamed and jumped as if it was a funnel web spider!

Our two caught a total of 5 mice between them last night.

I wouldn't mind, but they woke me up at midnight loudly crunching on mouse! They've got cat food available but if seems the primal hunger gripped them.

Horrible cat tends to kill and then eat part of each rabbit, starting at the back of the neck. The remains are usually in one piece with the head still connected by a flap of skin and fur. There's a suitable flat rock at the front of the house I put the carcass on so the avian scavengers can feast too.

Ours bought in a live sabbit ...I offered to off it, but swmbo 'd decreed that it be
given another chance... 10 minutes later it was back in minus it's head.

They freeze with shock.

After reading all of the above, I'm very relieved that our cat is as good a hunter as he is at ballet. And Scrabble. Or balletic Scrabble.

Seriously, the only birds he can catch are the dead ones that fall out of the nest (or are pushed out).

Elsa is great at catching flys and mosquitos, which I thoroughly approve of

She also walks around on the patio licking up ants

I trust you let her know of your approval.

Wilko used to be death on four legs to flies and mosquitos, but as he's got older he simply CBA. Which is a shame.

Back pain/spasms.

FFS, this is the first week we've had a few days in a row of sunshine and I've not been able to walk to hte garage, let alone get on a bike

And - no idea why it's happened Not done anything different to usual.

Yesterday I was really positive (after giving up sleeping up on the bed and spending most of the night on the 'sofa' thing) as it felt a bit better and I figured I could ride the bike today.

Nope. As I could actually get up the steps to the bed I went to bed last night - only to wake up at 5am with more muscle pain.

So I got up took painkillers (that have made no difference ) and am back on the sofa thing - not able to ride

And now iPlayer is buffering. Don't know if it's the VPN being shit or the wifi. Don't think it's the wifi because it has played Netflix totally fine this morning.

I can't deal with another stupid text conversation with a bot about the VPN - it's almost worth going back to paying to see uk tv rather than having the vpn!!!

When I doubt, clear caches and all that shenanigans and restart everything...
