Morning.
It is a lovely bright sunny day here. I can't see any clouds at the moment . It also looked lovely and clear at 4.20 this morning when I got up for a pit stop .
I will be going out for a ride later this morning . I'll take it a bit easy as it will be my first time out since the woozy .

Champagne corks make good plugs. I lost mine while touring a couple of years ago and the bar tape started to unwind so I popped into a pub and asked for a cork. It did the job admirabubbly.
EDIT: I was playing catch up and didn't realise the subject had been thoroughly discussed in following posts.

The wine of course, water is for washing the bikes and cars with, I think animals drink it too. My local wine emporium secured many cubic metres of Châteauneuf-du-Pape last year and are flogging it for €2.40/L.Good red wine 14% abv is €2 a litre in a 10 ltr. box from my very good friends not far from here. Water in a bottle from the supermarket is much the same price or possibly more if it's the sparkly variety. What am l going to drink ? l ask you
They bought it from a négociant whose market for the US had collapsed due to the punitive tariffs enforced because of the Airbus Boeing trade war. Apparently it is usually sent for bottling in the US, when it runs out I will be bereft.

True, especially if the sun stays out. It's a five mile walk home for him so I'll set off lunchtime. And a bakers in his village does very nice coffee and pasties. And pastries ☕🍽🌞

I remember adverts for Stones Bitter, the hook line was changed by many to "stones bitter, comes up great guns".That takes me way, way back to my misspent youth "Asti Spumante" it was more commonly called "Nasty Spewuppi"

I've just lit the stove.
Before that I did the shopping for next week.
Amongst other things, I bought some toothpaste.
