Fragile Do Not Bend Dec 2018 8:35pm, 11 Dec 2018 3,835 posts	Quote Pin Fragile Do Not Bend There’s a lot of it about today - I nearly got taken out by a cyclist on a (definitely not shared) pavement. I may have overdone my exclamation of alarm.
McGoohan Dec 2018 9:34pm, 11 Dec 2018 37,317 posts	Quote Pin McGoohan The bloke on the bus could not be silent for one moment. - Call to friend telling him to bunk off his course. Friend can't leave, he's due to stay till 6:30. 'I'd tell her to ** my *** **' Went on ages. - Call from his dad - he'd been called by 'the nursery' - Calls 'nursery'. Assures them his daughter will be in Weds or Thurs but she's on antibiotics. Gives them his mobile number. - Calls Dad back. Says he's sorted it out. They've got the wrong number 'since t all kicked off'. - Calls another friend. Talking about getting wasted.How about tomorrow? Thursday then? And then I got off. I resent having to wear headphones and listen to music to drown out somebody's YELLED personal life. I managed about a page of reading my book.

Lately it's easier to avoid cars in the road than cyclists on the pavement.
