But you think you were influenced by Alice and I spoke briefly about cycling.
I didn't think it was a joyous chat.
I mean, what I love about cycling is how the act of your legs turning around sort of it keeps enough of the brain engaged that that frees another part.
But in the same way that you have wonderful ideas a lot of the time while you're brushing your teeth or maybe ironing or using the Hoover.
That's what I love about cycling.
And I don't think I got that across.
Instead, what came across was just this nerd chat about pounds per square inch pressure putting into tires.
It's a triathlon of sorts.
Colin from Accounts, a treadmill, and a go on a bike.
Yeah.
Maybe that's what was annoying the man, that you were just like Steve McQueen in The Great Escape, bouncing this ball around the small back room of the pub.
What makes this so magical, this ball?
Is it shaped like a dodecahedron such that the bounce is unpredictable?
My last bouncy ball, Ivo, was my mother for Christmas.
I never, ever thought we would get to a stage where you would start and say, this is my last bouncy ball, and then I'd get the information, but I'm all ears.
My mother gave me what was actually, I'd say, 500 rubber bands.
all wrapped around each other that functioned as a bouncy ball, but had the advantage then that you could occasionally remove one and use it as an actual rubber band.
It was lovely.
And then about a year ago, maybe I've had it for five years, and then the rubber bands just started twanging every time you tried to rubber band something, which I would say I only need five rubber bands a year, maybe max.
Imagine their disappointment if, when they check it a few moments later, added the Mavericks moon ball.
