Nope, Because, I was asleep. Will do that now.

A touch foggy this morning, but even with the late start traffic was very light. I guess no one has to work today.

Then they said they were going to change them again, still with the same effective date. This would have removed one of the options allowed. And then the supermarkets, who are a pair of 800 pound gorillas, said we are only going accept eggs grown under the new proposed rules. This meant the farmers who'd taken the option that the govt threatened to remove would suddenly have to spend lots more money, really, really fast to stay in business.
The farmers don't of course have the multiple thousands available to change again quickly, nor will they get the necessary permits/consents from councils and government departments quickly. As a result, eggs are virtually unobtainable for the average consumer. The last few times I've been to the supermarket there have no eggs available to buy, regardless of price.
Just as well I don't eat a lot of eggs.

They are doing some work in the space next door. The workers have loud music on, at least it's "classic rock" so I don't mind it. Much.

Shimano hubs are probably cup and cone with loose ball bearings. Sometimes tricky to get the preload just right. Is it both wheels? Someone suggested the QR was hitting the axle but this seems unlikely to me.
Switching between two frames, do the rear dropouts have the same axle spacing?

Seen here with a GPS watch that cost more than a dozen eggs.

It's clearly the Saturn of watches. Cheap, plastic, and good enough for me.
