Don't panic! GS is springing into action ! Grant Shapps is getting into his one piece stretchy suit and is going to sort out the lorry driver mess in a flash!
I am going to hold my breath and wait to see what develops !

I hope he remembers not to put his Michael Green outfit on again.

Now I know that something is seriously wrong with me.

More shopping has been done. And again for myself - new waterproof walking shoes.

I think I need a lie down.

Are you planning for something cold and wet?

The new job is outdoors, all year round. And this is Britain. With British weather. 'Nuff said.

I forgot to mention that with all the long work days last week my apartment was a pigstsy by last night. By dint of much effort I have however found the surface of the desk this morning and cleared the sofa of dirty laundry.

good work!

Good news! My garden is not overflowing with my neighbours pots and plants.

They were repositioned so as not to be in the new occupant's way. It helps considerably that the "new" person is the sister of the people who live between me and the new person.

It occurred to me that as the new house of the old occupants is not completely built yet, it could be considerably longer than planned before the plants follow them into their new home. The reason she wanted to take them with her was that many of them are of sentimental value, as they were gifts from dear friends, some sadly now departed.

Much as I like my garden, none of them are of sentimental value. Even the one in memory of my Mother, an apricot rose named "Honey" is replaceable. She liked apricot as a colour and honey with her toast.

The problem l have with Cycle Chat is that some of the remarks made encourage me to venture into waters new and probably very deep. A good example is the Canondale bike that a friend recently gave me. There seems to be a view that l should stop wondering if l should give it away or donate it to the local tip and bloody well get on with cleaning it up and then ride it as a winter bike. So now look what l have started doing

I must admit that l do like the pedals, l've not come across the design before.

Oh well here's to bulk buying WD40

The BBC weather on my phone this morning described a light breeze. Clearly they and I had a completely different view of what constitutes a light breeze!

Our local service has funny ideas about what "dry, zero chance of rain" means as well...

The dirty laundry is now on your desk, found earlier?

Quite a lot of heads down, bums up, look how fast I can go types out today. Very annoying when they seem think tear arseing along a shared path is fine though.
