Bought 1L of fork oil from Opie Oils. Arrived today and a little had leaked, apparently it stinks when fresh too! Emailed them and they are sending out a new bottle and don't want the old one back. Well done Opie Oils.
Splashed boiling water over my right hand, which smarted a bit. Quickly got the hand under the cold tap and so no harm done and no damage. Sat back down at my desk, drank some of my coffee and after a couple of minutes, my right thumb started to report in. "Er, I think I'm hot. Is there hot water? Am I being scalded? I'm getting hot!". Having smashed the thumb some years ago, I occasionally receive a reminder that all is not well ... but taking five minutes to register that I had poured hot water over my thumb? Unacceptable.
Cycled 15 miles for the first time in four years. Looking at tonight's TV schedule, I think @Exige ought to be watching BBC three at 9 PM
After queueing up for almost half an hour in the chemist's shop today I finally got to the counter and the woman looked at me and said, "I'm really sorry about your wait." In a rattled state, I replied, "Well missus, you're not so feckin' skinny yourself"
