      If you've never had the transmission go out on an F-350 Super Duty while towing a 25 foot trailer and blocking four lanes of traffic in all directions, then the tow not having an inch and 7/8 ball hitch, so you block traffic for over an hour, I highly recommend it. Talk about an exercise in humility. 😬

          I am so tired. But I am glad that's over. And they didn't seem too mad about it at work.

          How you doing Giles?

            I'm doing good thank you, but the new Kayak is using muscles I did not know I had, so I am knackered.  But that is part of the reason I got it, to build up the strength in my legs…

            I did have a bit of a "discussion" at the public dock yesterday.  It was the first time I was landing the thing, so I was a little nervous about remembering everything and not making a complete lash of it.  I got out of the kayak on the slipway and a motorboat came in behind me:

            "Oi, we are landing there"
            "Yeah, so am I and I got here first"
            "Well I need to land now"
            "I'll only be a few mins, and I did get here before you"

            etc etc etc

            After I got the kayak out, the boat owner came over and was exceedingly nice to me.  I think he knew he had been a complete twat. He did not actually say sorry, but did give me some advice on good fishing spots....

                Haha yes, it's something special — I dated a British girl for a while and it always cracked me up when she called somebody one. It's all in the pronunciation, too — we yanks tend to pronounce it like "twot" but the Brit "at" usage is way better. They win at the insults.

                  Yeah, you need to put some venom into the "at" and it if you really mean it, if it is a term of endearment then you soften the "at"  🙂

                            I saw a pair of platform Crocs recently. They’re mutating like the virus.

                                Ahem, I will die clutching my Birk Bostons. And they don't smell that bad…

                                Also, I hear that Crocs are super comfortable but tbh I have never tried them on, due to the fact that I am legitimately scared I will like them. Can't have that.

                                  I’d wear some Boston’s.  Crocs on the other hand…

                                    Hey, there are plenty of comfortable shoes, and not all of them are abominations. That said, Crocs of course are comfortable. Wouldn't they have to be? For professions like being a chef, as long as you stay in the kitchen where they are not visible to the patrons, or being a prisoner, where you might not have a choice, they are a fine option.

                                    If you need that springy sole and people see your feet from time to time, I'd recommend Adidas Boost 😉

                                    Think it, be it.
