Mundane News

It's turned out out be a fairly sunny and not too windy day. If I'd known this earlier I'd have got myself going earlier and done what I was going to do on Wednesday before the A14 problems. Instead I've booked some rail tickets and a bike reservation for Monday to give myself a couple of options. This gave me an excuse to go out for a decent 50k ride to get the tickets printed out!

A large coffee has just been had and a snooze will possibly follow.

I have been out and bought some paint for my Pinarello. They used a scanning tool to match the colour. I had to buy 1 litre so I will have to see what other bikes need painting red.

Still does have a market but not on Tuesdays Thursdays and Sundays which probably explains the Skipton office meeting on a Thursday.
Presumably it has been affected by the arrival over the years of Aldi, Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury's and Tesco ; no doubt Lidl is looking to be there as well

Yes, we did a few, too few, years in Ilkley. Got shipped out about 40 years ago.
Grief, how time flies.

Decision made going for a ride
Yesterday's gone but requires a bucket 🪣

Assume it's on the list.

Well I did go out. I did cycle, the sun shone.
Found a variant route that was very nice.
The absence of pubs or cafes was a bit of a shame.

Wandering the lanes and hearing shotguns being fired I fell to wondering what the economics of running a shoot are.

Mentioning the lack of a Lidl in Skipton reminded me to call in at the local
one on the return of a work visit. Stack of new vouchers to use some of along with pork medallions and chicken breasts.
