@df9hc@mastodon.radio 😀

@archy@mastodon.radio Thank you so much! Yes, I do love handheld portable--in fact, just walked back in from making a few contacts as I walked my property! :)

Playing with the @n6ara@mastodon.radio TinyGawant.
This little guy is quirky and fun!

@2E0ECN@mastodon.radio @N4JAW@mastodon.radio But, of course, you already know this story, Mark! :)

@2E0ECN@mastodon.radio So @N4JAW@mastodon.radio has a few folding bikes, but no Bromptons. I know he uses a Tern quite a lot. Funny, because it was Jim who convinced me to take the Brompton plunge. I always wanted one and while saving up for a new one, two used ones showed up locally on the used market (an extremely rare occurence here in North Carolina) and I grabbed both. Absolutely love them and am grateful to Jim to telling me to bite the bullet. Always wanted a Brommie when I live int he UK!

@oatmeal@mastodon.social This. I understand this.
