    Quickies part 2

    On my way to the Shed this morning, I was stopped at the lights waiting to make a right hand turn. The lights changed, and the line of cars moved off, only to be stopped just around the corner. A long wheelbase truck with dual rear axles was trying to back into a warehouse. It was so long the front wheels were on the crown of the road. As he rolled back, the back wheels of the bogey rolled through the gutter and up the drive of the warehouse. This lifted the front axle of the bogey so the driving wheels were clear of the ground, and just spinning.He had to let it roll forward again, and try a couple of more times till he had sufficient momentum to roll back to where the drive wheels could get a hold and get him off the road.

    Saw a girl at the gym on an exercise bike, wearing a safety helmet, so I put on a life jacket and got on the rowing machine beside her.
