Working week completed, thankfully as it's been a very busy and stressful week at work.

It stayed dry but is pretty blustery all day. I thought about a bike ride but I felt tired today. I took an evening to beach for a little coastal perambulation, fish and chips and time spent looking out to sea.

My everyday. Outputs humidity, bugs, insecticides, and corn I cannot eat. Quiet, though. (when airplanes are not flying over spraying insecticide.)

Today's 71 plate has 556666 kilometres on the odometer and has taken me to Acocks Green.

I might!
I put on a new pair of socks yesterday, fancy bamboo things with Red Arrow Hawks on and got snared inside when I tried to put my foot into them. Masses of threads inside!

I am waiting for some bike parts to arrive and just been thinking how things have slowed down! We used to have Concorde but now have sub sonic planes. The main roads didn't have speed limits at one time then became 70 mph and now a lot are becoming 50 mph. We used to have next day postal delivery but now you will be lucky if you see it within a week! Work drags on for months but miraculously holidays fly by in a few hours!

I was just trying to think how mail delivery companies could improve things for themselves and still make profits.
They will give you the sender's address so you can go and collect it yourself!

Off for a swim this morning then straight to the hospital for an appointment @ 11:45 👍

Are you going to get changed or not bother ?

It's called progress

I did the unusual thing this morning and layed in rather than get up and go for a ride, mainly because got to set off soon for a drive up north for a family gathering.

Easy to solve. You can't divide 23 by those quantities, as it's an odd number and you don't want to be sawing goats into pieces.

Neighbour lends the fella one goat.

Then half of 24 is 12
A third of 24 is 8
An eighth of 24 is 3

So 12 + 8 + 3 = 23

And the neighbour gets his goat back.

Ah but I doubt it your bank manager would see it that way ?

Good morning all, wet and again windy today, ‘feels like’ forecast max of 13°.
