Taking a little risk is so much more fun. :)
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

I am intrigued, a biker wearing petunia oil?
Would that be for greasy hair, or would that be insinuating that our dear OH rode a bike for the other gang? :wink:

Afternoon OH, DD, and what a lovely one it is too!

OH, I don't have a bike anymore, I sold the last one last year. I'm a bit too long in the tooth for that kind of caper these days! I did have many adventures though, rallies & festivals across Europe and the UK! Oh those were the days! I still do venture out to camp at music festivals however, if the fancy takes me! :wink:

My OH has a bike which must be more than 25 years old. About 15 years ago after severe lack of use he spent a small fortune having it done up as part of a Keep Fit campaign. I think it was ridden about five times before it resumed its stagnant position in our potting shed area where it has remained ever since, forcing me to bang my shins on it every time I walk past it. I think it's being saved for the time when the world's oil and petrol supply comes to an end when it will be harnessed to our wheelbarrow in which all our worldly goods will be loaded as we tramp the country like gypies living off herbs and berries. No doubt at that time my OH's wisdom in hanging onto it will be apparent. In the meantime, I'm spending a fortune on Band Aid repairing my damaged shins. :roll:

I think everyone should make good use of their Wheelbarrows, when i'm less busy i will try and calculate my yearly mileage. :roll: :)

Hope you all have a most pleasant day. :wink:
