Well guys, thank you for your comments and yes, you were right. A weekend with a bike attached to my basket made a big difference and I am starting to grow more fond of it by the day... Even if I did have a little 'incident' at the farmer's market in front of a few friends. I loaded up the basket all nonchalantly indicating I was off for a healthy ride with my spray free veges and generally just showing of about how organic I now am (I am really not very at all). Unfortunately my very overloaded basket popped off the bike and spilt blueberries everywhere. I laughed awkwardly, scraped everything together and rode off wobbling the way you do when you are going very, very slowly trying to keep your blueberries from rolling away. I don't know how long this basket will last...
So here is my bike having a bit of a fashion show.
I have to admit that when I ride my bike I pretend to be all casual but really inside I am going "This is MY BIKE!!! ".
I love how in this photo it's looking pensively off into the distance. This basket is more of a thinker.
Oh yes, we made it to the beach too. The weather was warm and the waves were the best they had been all summer. Archie and I spend hours boogie boarding together and I think I have ruined any chance he has of true surfie talk by teaching him some of my phrases. When I described the waves as rowdy the other day he asked me admiringly where I learnt my surfing banter from. I told him the truth. I told him that I made it up. So now he knows that phrases like "There's a lot of pi going on in the green room" are not commonly made statements. They should be though.
Lots of love,
Kate xxooxx.

Oooooo! That's your bike, you clever girl. I saw it on facebook the other day and posted it to my wall saying I so need a bike like that to ride around the village I work in. I can just see myself popping off to the bank or the post office on a bike just like yours.
Very much fun.
Kate I laughed so hard about the pensive basket photo I actually snorted!! xo
Great. Bike.
Ooh la la! delightful and i want one.
I love your bike! If I had one like this I would probably use a bike more often. I have a friend who has a motorised buggy and you have given me a fantastic idea to 'yarnbomb' this!! Take care. Chel
beautiful bike!!!!

Beautiful bike again. I am rather envious of those swims you had. The dam doesn't quite have the same ambience! Mud and weeds before you get out far enough to swim!, love Mrs A
