Being kind to nurses it’s got a bit busy. I’ve done both bits of my fluid balance chart. Luckily I know how to do the bit they have to do.

I was just chatting to Biggsy about the cost of paint for my Pinarello. I had to drive about 30 return miles to go and get the paint. I have already spent about £30 on 2 aerosol spray cans, one was too dark the other a bit too orange. I spent about £80 to have a litre of red paint and a litre of activator, I already have some thinners. I won't use much of the paint as I will only be doing local repairs. I have sprayed the crossbar which is red, silver and black with white lettering, Angliru. I have had to redo the lettering and silver. The down tube and seat tube are the next things to tackle. These also have lettering on which I will have to copy and repaint. 8 am hoping to keep the repairs away from the silver and black areas.
It would have cost a fortune if I had taken the frame to have been done elsewhere. The frame would have had to have been stripped because of the corrosion and paint chips. 3 colours plus lettering would have cost a lot despite the fact that they wouldn't need so much paint.
Do I know what I am doing? Well yes! I used to be a sprayer although I don't fancy spraying a bike frame. I must admit it is better than decorating!

It has finally stopped raining.

The now dry washing has been put away, yesterday's removed bedding has been washed and put on the clothes horse as it's a quicker drying material and a bit of tidying up and throwing stuff out has been done to make a bit of space.

Coffee and a light lunch will be followed by an hour's walk if it stays dry overhead.
