Other non-mundane news: have ordered another pair of prescription swimming goggles.The first pair was a huge success so I'm getting a pair to keep at the seaside. Bit like how I've built up a full drawer of running kit and shoes down there, so I am ready for most activities without having to remember to pack them here. All I need now is a bike to keep down there permanently

swittle Jan 2020 10:53am, 15 Jan 2020 60,288 posts	0 swittle Re 'peely wally' above: a reggae singer called Eek-A-Mouse released a song called 'Peeni Walli' about being knocked off his bicycle. The lyrics include: "When the bike really hit me I see stars and peeni walli".... There's a definition of 'peeny wally' here - I make no claims to its accuracy - a firefly. lexico.com Mundane enough?
