    Why was nothing put on the banned thread? I bet MF would have said why...

      Knackered my left knee and can't ride on it. Gutted. 9 months of training and prep down the pan.

          Preparing the garden bench to sit on it for a few weeks.
          Maybe taking The Toy out for a drive - it's been parked up for the last month and maybe only done 10 miles in that time
          Might pull the onions, cut the grass, take down an apple tree, or I might leave those for jobs next week, depends on the weather.

          What about you?

            Got minor surgery at 4pm today. Tomorrow will walk round the Great Orme. The kids want to do it even though its due to rain. Sunday is the trip down to the smoke.

                    Best of luck with that (although if it's a personality transplant, you might want to check out the donor first )
                    Mostly preparing for Mrs M's HUGE birthday next week. Maybe a bit of watching Arsenal beat a Mike Ashley Invitational XI on Sunday. I was going to say it's a shame there's no cricket on, but after last weeks capitulation, I'm sort of quite relieved. A bit of gardening, if my rain dance doesn't work.

                      That would be major surgery for Brillo as there is no personality to replace.
