Fix my bike. Mudguards held on with sisal+glue plastic + bungee in front, sisal+sticks + bungee + ?(turns out proper bolt in middle) at back. Back wheel off, clean gears, clean bike parts, remove gunge from rear gearset. Cut off mudguard sisal. Unscrew middle(very tight), clean + white lithium grease, no way of moving that further from tyre so back on, wire instead of the sisal+sticks. Front wheel cut sisal off, mudguard metal L had very small rivet end worn through mudguard. Remove rivet. Find bolt too big. Drill hole wider. Find too big but it will do plate to go on inside of mudguard. Bolt it and L on. Bolt L back onto bike. Test ride. Lovely. How do those track stand wheel hops front and back humm?

Crashlanded! Our own version of springwatch here. Not one but two little guys (great tits/blue tits?) crashlanded beside me while I was fixing bike. One seemed to crash down from gutter not too hard, they recovered and has flown off. Other guy out cold! Or maybe dead! :-( He hit upstairs window with a thump. Doing their flying lessons I think. Second guy not so good ended up x-[ later on he was still conked, we put 4 things around so we wouldn't step on him by accident. Put badger(fluffy toy) under after a while to insulate from cold ground. A parent bird was in blackcurrant bush chirping at me. Later on spitting drizzle I moved him under the bush. x-[
