Just a bit slower.

I'm not operating machinery.

Listening is easy & when I see people there are fixed outcomes / options for consumers (basically):

........
Collateral history is king.

....

It wasn't busy but constant going which keeps you going as well as 7-11 coffee
you would still want to be extra careful getting home xxx


Rode to work for 3 shifts rode back the two. Left the bike with the police & took PT home, Mrs WPT picked me up from the station. Drove to & from work for the 4 hr shift (get paid for the full shift) then next day put the bike in the car.

Next day driven to tram by youngest at 1pm & picked up from work at 1045pm (finished late as we had a busy one with the police).

In short I won't drive that tired. Problem with all the OT (& I've worked too much this month) is that I was too tired today but will be fine tomorrow

Anyway, it's paid for this:

well done you, good idea with the public transport.

like the look of that machine, let us know how it goes, i have a fantastic blender, but i need a decent food processor, and that looks nice and compact too. especially interested in its grating and slicing powers! raw beetroot for a start!!! cheers

I've got 2 food processors in the kitchen cupboard.

Mine, which was last used 15+ years ago and mums which was last used, by me, 35+ years ago

Lost my rhythm with bike riding to work because of overtime.

Nice ride today to Mordialloc & back.(except for the headwind on the return journey).

All covers but one. A Whiter Shade Of Pale & Space Oddity went down best, the former is the cafe owner's all time fave but I had no idea at the time.

Just me & my Maton so Beatles, CSNY (any and all), 70s/80s stuff mostly with a few Australian tunes (eg: Gypsy Queen, Flame Trees, Arkansas Grass) also. Elton John, Billy Joel, 5 Man Electrical Band, Jethro Tull, Queen, Dylan, Jimmy Buffett. So a broad cross section. Played 46 songs today.

Cheers P4S Very Happy

MM

Signs? "Long haired freaky people need not apply"?

I'd love to hear your version of Arkansas Grass sometime - that's a wonderful song.

46 songs. Now that's hard work!
