@bill: I saw quite a few garden sprinklers in action over the past week. I didn't think there was a market for them here.
You've forgotten the summer of 2018 already?

My SKS rear mudguard broke again just in time for rain. Wet bum coming up! :(
I am told Kinesis mudguards are better. I shall look into that.Posted 4 years ago # -
@bill
How has the mudguard broken?
Posted 4 years ago # -
@IWARTS
It just broke along the way. No particular pothole or anything. It always breaks in the same spot.

@bill I foound an extra long ass saver, drop round for it tonight (I will leave it where the milk usually is - though I think was nicked Monday. Morning as no milk for my porridge that morning)
If you want it

@gembo Thanks! I will take you on that offer. I have a regular ass saver but it isn't that great.
I didn't see your milk on Monday when I went past. I thought it was hidden away or you already took it in. Sorry to hear that!

What time will you be passing?
@bill, you can have cup of tea in garden or just pick up the ass saver from behind the wheel

Does this mean that bill has an extra long ass?
Posted 4 years ago # -
@gembo around 6.30-7pm I reckon. I will message you if running late. I will probably be rather wet, so I will pass on tea offer this time :/
@jdanielp if the extra long ass saver will keep it dry, then it is true

Ass Saver Extended is under the Milk Wheel
Too wet for Garden Party alas

I am slowly destroying my memory with Old Poultney, but wasn't I in shorts and a T-shirt five days ago worrying about the drought-dry soil? And tonight I have put on the fire while the rain lashes down?

@bax (typing with shaking hands) - I'm sure I heard this has been the driest May on record. And I have flashbacks of a hose in my hands, watering the garden.

This was genuinely formative for my mental processes as a child. (Weirdo.) Increasingly relevant too.

Great to see Chris Zeeman again. He was one of my lecturers at Warwick back then. His lectures were always packed, often with non-maths students who were fascinated by this new idea - a precursor of chaos theory.

The comment from the sceptical mathematician at 22:18 is very much a question we need to grapple with during our current situation...

I think the forecast yesterday said it would be a sunny morning, so I got up a bit earlier to go via the Lang Whang and Harburn and some nice views.
Very, very thick fog on the Lang Whang, so no distant views. I didn't realise I was around Harperrig until the final few meters of the climb
EDIT: gembo says the climb is called Auchinoon Brea
