I Bought A Pump

After my puncture the other day I decided I really needed a decent bike pump.  I wanted one made mainly of metal, with quality parts and a gauge.  The recommended minimum pressure for my bike tyres is 45psi.  That is fairly high I would have thought.

So I bought a decent pump and gave it a go and pumped both tyres to the recommended 45psi.  What a difference it made.  The bike runs smoothly and so easily with the tyres pumped right up!  It has made quite a difference to the ride!

Drinks Friday afternoon were again a lot of fun.  It was better than the quality of the footy match we watched later that night.  There are now only 2 undefeated sides in the AFL, my team Geelong and Trish's team Hawthorn.  They play each other next Monday (Easter Monday).  It should be a top game to watch!

Computer Club was reasonably busy bit not too bad.  I managed to help quite a few people out and they seemed thankful enough.  Both Saturday and Sunday were footy on TV days.

The nasty cyclone which hit northern Queensland early in the weekend has had a minor effect on us at it now clears out to the east and away from the Queensland coast.  It is extremely cloudy today and a little windy.  However there is a 'trough' sitting over the land and this is causing the cloud from Cyclone Ita to rise and is giving us a fairly wet couple of days.

Trish has her eyes on a new 'buffet'.  The "Ladder- Racks" wall unit we purchased in Penang over 40 years ago and made of solid teak is going and a new more modern piece is on the horizon.  We spent some of Sunday checking prices, delivery costs and seeing what was available.  We aren't in a rush just now but will keep our eyes open.
