Good man. All you need to do now is buy a bike for yourself so you can
enjoy family rides with your grandaughter.

Sorry, I'm an adult.

I am very glad not to be an adult by the dave's definition.

This child (dave's description, which I am proud of) finds his toy an
extremely useful viable pleasurable convenient means of transport.

Indeed, an "adult" who doesn't engage with his grandchildren is more
accurately described as a moron.

The car is stuck on the drive, waiting for a replacement ignition

noises but that's about all.



Yesterday, my wife drove to work with the air con on, while I drove to

Our granddaughters pushbike is stuck in the garage, awaiting some air in

a tyre. You can sit on it, hold the handlebars & make clank clank

noises, but that's about it.

So you're a handyman who can't work out how to operate a bike pump? Do
you call the AA when your van tyres need more air?

Why would I need a bike pump?

To put some air into your granddaughters pushbike tyre!

Or is that to simple for your complex mind?

Erm... to pump up your grandaughter's bike tyre?

Sorry. I forgot I was dealing with amateurs. One has an air compressor to
blow up tyres.

So why haven't you used that to put air into the bike tyre?

So why not use it, so the poor kid can use her bike?

Because she doesn't live here.

Why does that stop you putting air into the tyre and taking the bike to her
so she can use it?

Goodness me, I would never have guessed!

It is such a pity your posts do not show that!

Another psychic psycholist.

My granddaughter & I 'engage' all the time, we have loads of fun
together. It doesn't include "family bike rides" because we are a
normal family, not a bunch of sad losers.

No. She has three bikes.
