Not going to say anything to family,but Lancashire next week looks very wet.So I am putting my open weave Karrimor walking shoes back in the cupboard and getting my everyday Doc's out.They can cope better with wet rain.Lord knows what piggin Fleetwood will look like in a downpour,it's going to be interesting the next few days,because f i l cannot walk very far at all.

As well as the Speed 5, I've also got my eye on a Guv'nor which has the advantage of being slightly cheaper and can be picked up from Norwich train station.

You've seen one in the bike racks at Norwich station?

One thing I will never ever buy is a budget price gazebo.
You've heard the term 'farm to fork'..

Well next doors cheap gazebo just went 'wallet to landfill' in three days.

Sat there, gust of wind, a sudden load of odd noise and their gazebo is smashed to bits in my garden

Just because you didn't like it, no need to smash it up.

I didn't sleep very last night and feel tired today as a result. I think it's too hot. Maybe I should go back to the Hebrides!

I started a little carpentry project today, and then discovered I had evidence of of woodworm in the wood I was working on, so haven't gone any further with that at the moment. I think it will be okay if I get something to treat it.

I did some writing on my blog and I also tweaked a poem I had written while in Stornoway waiting for the ferry, and have entered it to a competition, along with two older ones that I revisited.

I think I will soon have an early night.

Bank holiday Monday tomorrow so have a day off work Usual bank holiday weather forecast, but I hope to get a few miles in.

A very relaxed afternoon was had post grass cutting. Out for about 90 minutes for a gentle bike ride followed by another 90 minutes reading & listening to the radio in the shade in the deck chair starting with an ice cream, finishing with a coffee.

The evening's hot chocolate has just been had and the non-recycling bin has not been moved to the front of the house as the council has changed collection days to Thursday as part of the new 3 bin system. It should be a 4 bin system, but they've still not delivered the food waste caddy (no great loss as I don't have waste food).

SWMBO took advantage of my lack of sleep and I was taken ladies clothes shopping with lunch out.

Did you find something that fitted you nicely?
