Cycling

I don't know where to start....

FTFY - worse than Audi and BMW drivers combined. (oops I've started)

Going on a bike ride tomorrow with my local techie contacts.

We focus on a different IT related text each month and this week it's my turn to pick the chapter to be discussed on our way round on the ride. This month it's Martin Fowler's Refactoring.

Later I'm attending a Zoom presentation from my local history group in which we're being treated to a history of food labeling by a local doyen of such matters with over 40 years in that particular industry and will be covering topics such as the fallout from the E is for E Numbers revolution back in the '80s and its implications to the industry right the way through to the more recent traffic light system of food labeling. Should be fascinating.

The UK's weather will do that to you. It saps all that healthy looking colour out and turns you all pale and pasty.

to which you add a pink-ish hint from dilated blood vessels from alcohol and the result is gammon steak

I have some mother issues but that looks a bit too much to take in...

In terms of the colour, what LM posted I think is a bit more accurate for now, let's see how it looks tomorrow.
Thought I had a bit more tolerance to it but I guess few years in the uk does this to you...

Turned out to be CFS and menieres attack central.
Wrote off the entire weekend
At least I didn't end up in A&E - small blessings!

That's crap. A sunny bank holiday weekend without a beer is sad indeed.

Get well soon!

Menieres is nasty. I had an attack of labyrinthitis once. The doctor diagnosed it as I walked from the door of her office to the chair... She did say it could be Menieres, but thankfully it went away. I've had it happen a few times since, so she prescribed me some medication that's supposed to help. When I looked it up, I saw it was an anti-psychotic drug...

Menieres is nasty (diagnosed in 2013) and drop attacks can make it much worse depending on what happens when you fall! I cracked my head open on the side of a radiator once

What did she prescribe you?

Peter Rabbit 2 watched. Not bad, not as good as PR1.

Watched PR1 on Saturday. Highly enjoyable. So silly. As was Turbo this evening.

On the intellectual side, I've nearly finished reading The Outer Limits of Reason: What Science, Mathematics, and Logic Cannot Tell Us by Noson S. Yanofsky

You walked 88.69 km in 3hr 17min 21s ? Must be as dodgy as the reading I once got on my cheap mobile. In about 1 hr I walked from Sussex to Lyon in France then back to Norfolk.

PS Or is that 3 days 17 hrs 21min?

Reading not your strong point? I'll try it again .... "4 1/2 hour walk on Saturday, 3 1/2 hour cycle today." Let's see if you can work it out
