What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

I had a mk1 mx5 in my eBay watch list, it ended last night and eBay sent me a message with similar* items I may be interested in. To be fair, it is the same colour :)

That's great I put it in the low cost liability thread in the modern section a couple of weeks ago.

It was mother-in-law's birthday last week so we had a big family gathering over the weekend.

 

She loves puzzles and quizzes and has apparently always wanted to do an escape room, since they became a thing.

 

So we got one for her as a birthday treat, and all joined in. I confess I wasn't really looking forward to it, but it turned out to be great fun. I don't want to talk in too much detail because spoilers, but we had to really work together and think logically to get through the puzzles and make our escape.

 

U-Escape in Bournemouth, highly recommended if you enjoy puzzles.

 

Done it a few times now….. also great for hangover cures. I was so bad I exited the taxi and threw up and walked the rest of the way - escape room lights went out, I 'looked' for clues on the floor..... sadly failed the mission but felt a lot better for it!

 

Sober times - it was truly taxing and great fun.

 

EDIT - First gig as MC in a while on saturday…. went well and everyone had a great time. Missed being up on stage running events and having a laugh. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Couple of company gigs to do in the run up to Xmas….. just for fun. Not being associated with the organisations you get away with almost anything. Brexit currently providing a lot of material for over here!

Almost finished!

New rims, tyres, tubes, chain, cassette, rear mech, bottom bracket, brake pads and cables. Just need a set of brake cables to finish. I thought I ordered a set but turned out it was just shifter cables.

 

Once they're changed, put the new bar tape on and go for a ride. Really looking forward to it as it should ride like new! A car comparison to what it's like, would be having an engine+gearbox rebuild, new shocks/springs/bushes, new tyres and new wheels fitted to your car.

"Look mate, it's perfectly straightforward - black bin every second Wednesday, blue bin every third Friday, brown bin every fourth Tuesday, and fucked Hillmans every fifth Monday. It's hardly fucking rocket science, is it? Now shove it round the back pronto or I'll have to fine you."

Any company or thing that uses Alexei Sayle’s face for some sort of promotion is the best kind of company or thing. Can I have dibs on that cardboard cut out if nobody wants it, please?
