I have been thinking of buying myself a 82nd birthday present next friday just to get me and the wife about.

Dont trust a Buggy as if the battery runs out I could not get it home so I have looked into an electric Bilke if that battery runs out I can peddle it home. I might give this Pope Mobile a try, it seems just the job for shopping,and I can put my Zimmmer in it, and the dog can sleep in it.

I wonder if I will have to wear a helmet?

Hi Shorty,


Just seen the thread, what a laugh. Happy Birthday and many more.

How is your wife getting on with the new extra long ladder you bought her for Christmas so she does not have to stretch so far when cleaning the gutters and windows, my wife love's hers, I think !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am spoiling her now, I am buying her a wheelbarrow, so that she does not have to carry the concrete she has mixed to the back of the garden to lay the foundations for the new 20 foot by 12 foot shed I am buying.

Any other ideas for presents I should buy her.

Hope you are having, or had a great "Birthday", depending on when you read this.

Good to hear that there are others that alow their other half to get involved, here Mrs Shorty helps me put up the roof trusses in the bungalow we built.

She likes being on the top scaffold to do the painting, I had to make the tea.

Never stop a willing hand.

    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
