Random Irritations

[Beezerk]

Do you think racists are only to the Right politically?

No I don't which was my point really. Some of the biggest racists I know are from back in Yorkshire and dyed in the wool reds.

Fat blokes on electric bikes, they’re fooling nobody but themselves.

Maybe they have a health problem, or have had a really bad injury and just want to get back out in the fresh air and exercise again, an electric bike is all they can manage for now? Good on them I say, I for one aren't going to make a snidey remarks about someone trying to do something positive.

I rather sit in anfield than sit on a leccy bike.

Don't knock it until you try it

Had a go on my dad's that he got to cycle to work as he got older the hill was knackering him out and saved him driving the 3 miles , it was lovely. Felt a bit fast in places but nice on the hills.

If I had the need for a bike properly like he did before he retired I would get one 100%

Far easier to judge and assume their lazy they be postive about people

Chill out for godsake! It’s a random irritation! Did you not see the winking emoji on my first reply!
I look forward to everyone getting the 3rd degree on their RANDOM irritation.

Ah yes the wonky emoji the forgiver of all jerky comments

Have you got a car, or do you walk everywhere...

mrs fundy has an electric bike, its excellent. what it means is I get to cycle at my pace and she keeps up 80% of the time then on the hills gets some help meaning I dont get to the top and stop and wait, its certainly made going out on the bikes together far more fun (apart from the odd big hill where she just laughs at me, thankfully not many round here), means we can get out to the beach or up into the forest without having to drive there and unload bikes when we do

We've got a couple of free standing units which are now on. Only gets hot enough for them a few times a summer though.

Mate, it was a random irritation said in jest, I was blowing out my backside and he went past without a care in the world, at that moment I’d swapped with him in an instance.
Obviously it touched a nerve with some. (Not you)

Just looked back and that image is scarily accurate for lockdown me - longer hair and a wee pot belly!

Don't worry, it was obvious.

I was going to stick up for you before the Anfield comment ??

I thought that was the obvious giveaway.

Sometimes I wish we didn't need ours on, especially when I wake up at 3 in the morning with it rattling away.

They are noisy for sure. Tend to rely on a fan overnight when it's too hot.

I thought that but we use the ones in my office and the bedroom almost every day, the lounge one far less, nice not to sound like an airplane taking off too as our portable one did!

And on the second day God invented ear plugs ??

What? Speak up man!

 

[Beezerk]

Bought some lumpwood charcoal from Morissons as it was the only stuff I could get short notice. It's taking an absolute age to go white, even in the chimney starter ?

100% what Fundý said. The seller may think they would struggle to sell right now and want to bring some money in via renting. Give them something to think about .if you want it, speak to them.

Thanks both, we'll be doing that tomorrow.
