Bikes and spinning and walking
May. 2nd, 2015 08:42 pmI took the bike Annie bought me for Yule to the bike shop today for Expert Opinion.
It can be refurbished for less than a cost of a cheap bike as it is basically sound in wind and limb.
Soon I will be even more mobile!
It is local wool shop day so our local wool shop had lots going on, including Serena and her Mum spinning. Fabulous. Mum has a very spiffing high end portable spinning wheel.
We retired to Kanya for lunch, which was fun.
Then I walked round Marbury, nearly came a cropper on the metal steps near Aldi, I've walked up them many a time but never down. In the rain. They slope downwards and are *very* slippy, I'm glad I was being cautious, even so, I slipped down one stair. Would be just my luck, after walking over mountains and down remote valleys and beaches, to do myself an injury so close to home.
It started raining about 12.30 and I don't think it's stopped since, I broke in my new silly sun hat, doubles as a rain hat as the purple floral one is getting a bit floppy (the brim has to be held up with a Hugo nominee pin to keep it out of my face).
Just had a long hot bath, to ease muscles strained by slipping and grabbing *very* hard on that hand rail on the steps.
Tomorrow, a short, Archers walk, then I need to tidy the house.
