From Leeds, the city of sirens - Police and Ambulance mostly. It's been remarkably sunny and dry forYorkshire .A very good day has been had so far.
1 - I managed to board the first train avoiding a dullard I used to put up with at work with who retired a year ago, then shared a table with someone else more interesting who I've not seen in many years (also a fellow retiree) on the second train.
2 - Before picking up the 'click & collect' order at Decathlon, I had a look round the hiking section and found the last pair of waterproof boots in my size reduced to £30.
3 - The account credit refund from the energy company has already been returned to my bank account.
Lunch and drinks have been had, a shower and a good snooze will follow once I've finished the coffee, then it's off to The Brudenell for an evening of loud music and more good beers.

It's been a cool, grey and occasionally rainy day here chez Casa Reynard. Not much of a breeze so felt warmer than yesterday.
Sleep again was subpar in terms of quantity. The lack of it has been accumulating, and I've felt rather meh today. A
was taken upstairs and I did a couple of hours of writing. Then jim jams swapped for fleece hoodie and joggers, and I cleared all the chores. Today's additional bits were putting away the non-fridgeable shopping after I'd just dumped it in the dining room last night, finding some almost non-existent shelf space for the books I picked up, and ironing my white coat.
Had a lovely luncheon of a wholegrain roll with ham & mustard, a banana yoghurt and my little pot of tea.
I've had a quiet afternoon. Yes, I topped up all the wood bins and coal bucket in the house to the max so that I don't have to futz about tomorrow, and sorted out all my stewarding gubbins, but then I had a lovely girly pamper session.
A quiet evening in front of the TV is planned. I don't need to cook - supper will be from the fridge via the poppity ping.

Is it wrong to admit that I have a collection of cat-themed teapots?
And cat-themed mugs.Though the little one that I pulled out of the cupboard is a plain little white bone china one.
2nd Sainsbury's shop in two days. Forgot to pick up any cheese yesterday but it turned out worthwhile as their was now 20% off clothing. New pair of jeans and three boxers for nightwear which then also facilitated use of a £3 voucher I had. Equated to a 29% reduction.

I have a collection of teapots, including a "Kit Kat" (chocolate) teapot, a "Flying Scotsman" and a cat shaped teapot. I also have a variety of mugs on the theme of railways. And watches with a railway theme.

Love it!
Which reminds, I have a small collection of football club mugs somewhere that I built up when I was in my early teens. A local shop used to sell them for pocket money prices, so every few weeks or so, I'd buy a different one.
Just over a hundred kilometres cycled today, virtually all of on off road cycle paths. All pancake flat too, but the headwind was horrible on the outward leg. I actually feel cycling needs hills to make it more interesting.
I had fish and chips when I got back. I ate in the park. I like the park here, and I've discovered they've got nesting swans in their pond.

You were lucky on the helmet front. They might have turned you back as you neared the end if they caught you with no helmet.
