Potentially could have been major catastrophe for Berty B and me today but someone somewhere was looking out for us.

Nipped into town today to buy a couple of birthday cards,  parking Berty at one of the cycle racks close to the shopping centre.   My quick pop into town probably stretched to a couple of hours and birthday card shopping also became dress trying on, buying of makeup and a pair of jeans amongst other things.

I returned to collect Berty,  put on my helmet and then realised that I had never chained him up.   It didn’t matter whether it was 2 minutes or 2 hours I was incredibly lucky that nobody had half-inched Berty and that he was safe and well.
