fell off the bike again but landed on my feet, hurrah
on the way to sign on, a hundred yards from the house, rounding a corner thinking i hadn't got any money with me, i avoided a car fairly comfortably and then ran into a curb. i think i abrogated control of the bike again which i am beginning to realise may not be a good strategy. thought i'd broken the gear mechanism and was momentarily despond at the possibility of being without transport but after walking it back to the house and some fiddling it seemed to be working and i decided to risk riding it into deal. i think there is such a thing as bike school and i should attend one. the brakes need adjusting urgently
the person at the job centre was nice
catching up with email, filling in an application form and posting others. this is the first post from the deal library. not quite moblogging but still noteworthy
the only constant is change and i am hopeful again
