Better Than Fine

"How’s the knee?"

"Good thanks. Never better..."

That's the sort of thing L would say. So I assume that’s the reply she’s looking for. Actually it’s fine as long as I don’t move and it was better than fine while I was cycling to work. It was when I stopped cycling, that it started to throb. So whether cycling was a good idea or not I'm not sure. To misquote somebody famous "To rest or not to rest, I struggle with that question."

Later, as I leave for home, the traffic situation is again ridiculous. So I’m really happy I’m on my bike, bad knee or not. Even the rain is better than that queue.

The rain does put paid to my planned swim though. Taking off wet kit and then putting it back on again does not appeal.
