I wish I'd have known you were there today, I too could have brought you an ECU you might have been desperate for. Just wondering how long it took you to cycle home from Brands to Reading as not even the world famous Delta can't use the M25 on a push bike

Given what I've just seen on social media, as long as you're dressed as a fox and have a bit of money behind you, you're deemed an 'essential helper' and can get in pretty easily

Hey Tim Zi did bike home from Brands but probably 30 years ago now . I’m ashamed to say that I gave up and caught the train after about 30 miles .Dont tell Bob I don’t want to upset him on his Birthday .

I remember hearing an explanation for why this happens a while back.

If you are always creating memories, then the time between your 9th and 10th birthdays is 1/10th of your entire memory, so feels like a significant period in your life. When you reach 50, the time between birthdays is only 1/50th of your memory, so feels like a lot less in comparison.

Oh - and happy birthday bob.

Looks pretty fireproof Gordon, complete with comfy cushions, and armchair I trust.
