A brace: one grey, one green.

Ooooh, green version just arrived. Less than £15 delivered and took 6 days.

Go for the multi effect choice!

Having to endure being dressed like this made us the winners we are today! 🤣

Just got the Nagoya NA701 (genuine) for the Baofeng UV-5R Mini. Will try it out later to see the difference in receive signal.

Interesting that it’s a £19 aerial (including delivery) for a £20 radio!

More suitable than the usual NA771 as it is only around 150mm in length.

Quick outing to Jersey Girls Dairy Ice Cream earlier. I tried Banoffee, Mrs KPH succumbed to doughnuts (two lots!)

Weather can’t make its mind up today. Little bit of rain in between sunshine, but still damp, so avoided my usual route down the railway line.

Not keen on sticking to main/busy side roads but the route was relatively dry. Not been out on the bike for a while, so better than nothing!

Hmmm, saw this on FB and must say I am not impressed.

Implying somebody is stupid because they don’t have the clairvoyant skills to determine somebody’s invisible illness does not help the cause.

My disability is invisible, but I don’t assume people are stupid for not guessing!

Just a reminder that, with all the filters and effects turned off the camera, this is how I actually look!

Best I can do for Halloween!

Looking back through old pics.

Twinkle, twinkle groovy cat. How I wonder where you’re at!

Groovy man.

Oooooh, these look nice. However, a £1 for a bar the size of a raffle ticket didn’t seem good value.

Today’s cycling frustration was a large group of “hikers” who seemed reluctant to get out of the way. Not sure why it is necessary to take up the full width of the path.

Had I been coming the other way (uphill) this would have been quite awkward.

I had to maintain ramming speed for them to move! 🤓

If you’re going to handcuff yourself to something, make sure it’s something good!

New full fat gloves for the colder weather, and to look fashionable around town!
October 27, 2025 at 1:24 PM
Oooooh, this looks interesting - especially to keep the thighs honed over the winter months!

New radio arrived this morning, bought primarily for the bike.

The Yaesu FT-25 is quite a compact radio to begin with, but it is a bit heavy. The UV-5R Mini is quite a lot more compact.
