SABINE!
You posted this!?!? :shock:
I look so fat in that big sweater and that large waistcoat ... ugh.
But this was taken in early June when I had only just taken up doing my countrytours on rollerblades for this summer, and the only tour on which Sabine accompanied me, so that was the only chance to get a picture of myself while rolling along our narrow (totally unused) country lanes.
All the other times after his I have been on my own, and have had my "emergency stops" (OK, only that one, thankfully) at the street sign on my own (cf. here - a little further into the thread- and here and here) ... and while today I shall still take a day off to give my little pinky another day for healing (it is still very swollen but getting more mobile again, plus the swelling is gradually moving into the hand, so I am back to using that pinky for typing, today, too), tomorrow at 7 I will be "on the road again"!

I personally think you look like you're just showing off. But, maybe that is because if I put wheels under my feet, I wouldn't still be standing! :lol:

Well, to tell you the truth, I was going slowly so Sabine'd be able to keep me in focus. We tried a "let-me-go-for-real" pic, but she gave up and said she could impossibly focus that one. I would need to have someone like our lostprophet to take those pics :greenpbl: :lol:

I think you look fantastic, and a very good shot from Sabine as well!

Thanks :blushing: --- and I will tell Sabine you said that (unless she comes to check on her threads herself, which she rarely does, but I think she is curious as to what others say about her island).
