Explaining the inexplicable to the uninterested using maths more than words.
2. It’s the weekend, where are we off to tonight?
Bed - ready for Cloncedigion in Newqay tomorrow :grinning:
3. What keeps you awake st night?
How grim and unfriendly the world is. On the other hand my own family and friends do more than offset the gloom.
4. What’s the greatest trip you ever took?
It’s a toss-up between my 70th birthday gourmand tour of France and Spain and a Route 66 inspired road trip with my son round USA and a family road trip round N & S New Zealand
5. What are you proud of yourself for?
I can recite e (the base of natural logarithms) to 16 decimal places and I can say the English alphabet backwards.

I touch people to find out where they hurt

Nowhere, staying in with a take-away :slight_smile:

I assume you mean because you can’t stop thinking about it but currently:
My wife now takes up more of the bed (pregnancy pillow)
The cats scratching our bedroom door.

You may have to wait for the Eisteddfod Entries to find out :wink:

I moved a lot of bits and bytes around, and did my best to see that they obeyed my particular (peculiar) set of rules.

It’s the weekend, where are we off to tonight?

Anywhere you fancy. :wink:

What keeps you awake at night?

Ahem, at my age, mostly my bladder. Sorry, but you did ask.

What’s the greatest trip you ever took?

A tour of Peru would be the most exotic I suppose.

But I think I mostly enjoyed cycling around southern Ireland and northern Germany.
Have had lots of good times in former eastern Germany (Thüringen, centred around Jena).

What are you proud of yourself for?

At the time, thinking I was making a difference, which I did in various campaigns. With hindsight, I am not so sure. Pride comes before a fall, so I try not to be too proud too often. Looking up “pride” in the Google bible, I see that “proud” and “haughty” are not the same. I’m almost never “haughty”. Can’t say the same about “naughty” though. :wink:
