    Careful Admin doesn't send realityhack to do a Robin Cook on you.

    Yes your right that was not fair, as a member of the contract pan scrubbing community Brillo deserves more respect and I withdraw my remark.

    Fortunately my occasional morning swim and evening gym visits dictate showering at regular intervals

    Fortunately I am the only one who has to suffer that room for the next few days!

    We'll have to keep the thread warm for tomorrow.

    Brillo, if you're reading: hope you're OK, hun.

    I shall leave NLadyUK to do the honours and explain that, otherwise Brillo will start trying to be funny at my Mrs's expense again

    Milan.

    yes indeed, we are a family of cyclists, which is excellent, we go away 3 or 4 times a year for cycling weekends

    the youngest age 10 can keep up on a daily 50km ride

    we cycle mainly across country, off the roads, through the forests and countryside

    we plan the rides to either take a circular route, or go one way with a train connection back to wherever the accommodation is - usually a spa hotel so that we can have a sauna and swim in the evening before dinner

    we've got great bikes, and even Chateau Benes is on the edge of a national park so we have great opportunities for cross country cycling straight from the back door

    and you, cyclist ?

    Milan.
    Not really. I get out now and again but not in a serious way. Need to do more really.

    Brillo, got any nice plans for the weekend? A bit of cycling maybe or a meal out?
