Had a colonoscopy this morning and they only found moderate amount of haemorrhoids. No polyps and no cancer.

Did they rate your efforts to prepare? I got a “good” from the doctor last time.

Steering away from butt hole related stuff. Logged in to service nsw to check on a licence. It said upgrade online. So i have brand new never used P plates, pick up only.
So i don't like riding road bikes. Last time i rode one was home from the P's test. Any how, just a questionnaire which asked the same question 3 times, and no i do not have diabetes, and $32 later, i have the unrestricted option till 2033.

Hooked into a lawn and solid hedge yesterday afternoon with Crash Bunny. Done by 6PM, everything binned/bagged, owner messaged this morning to say how pleased they were with the result. You could tell the gratitude was sincere, it’s a nice thing.

Another “dead wood” workshop job being steadily reactivated. Hoping it’s out before late November but a sender has been lost by the machine shop. Not a big deal as it’s a small, top-mounted part, but likely needed from OS.

As they say, good to put a face to a name. Not exactly the hookup that Tonz was implying but a decent natterfest and worthwhile venue.

A guy was selling various XB XCparts on market place, $20 $50 $100.
Nothing I really needed, couldn't justify buying stuff.
Anyway, suddenly it's $1. I confirmed with him, yes$1 , moving house, has to go.
Got a very nice clean pair of kick panels, $1, a pair of bonnet hinges, $1 and a NIB master cylinder $1.
I missed some other stuff, already sold unfortunately.
I gave him a fifty, he was appreciative.
