That has thrown me out !
Pop Master on Beeb2 usually starts at 10.30 . I switched on today and it was all over by 10.45! . Must have started early !

Now have I got this right ?
The governmint are cancelling the runway from Heathrow to Leeds but are building a HS 2 at Heathrow ?

Yes, and if you would like to visit Leeds, you will get there ten years earlier than expected.

And you did 13 miles!? Risky....

Never thought about it before but that is just the milage of that loop

Good job you were not taking part

Mild, mostly sunny and rather breezy here chez Casa Reynard.

I spent the morning having a lovely walk with a friend and her two dogs and just setting the world to rights. It has clouded over somewhat since I got back though, which is a shame. I also bought some carrots, leeks and broccoli from the veg stall in the village.

Almost time for luncheon, and I have worked up an appetite.

@Reynard - not the friend you dreamed about? And did you tell her?

I was having a peaceful lunch-time hour working on the Harry Quinn I picked up a couple of weeks ago, before attempting to rescue a bird which our big cat had caught. I failed. RIP bird and a very shouty cat about their bird-catching prowess:

Clearly the bird wasn't tasty enough, too feathery, or simply an appetiser as he came in demanding lunch a few minutes later.

@Reynard - not the friend you dreamed about? And did you tell her?

Err no.

The dream was of a male friend, who is, alas, unavailable in that department.

Anyways, lovely lunch of a ham & cheese bagel, a banana, a minneola and two

Bum park for a bit, then off to move firewood.

Mustn't forget to pick a decent bunch of parsley.

What is Bob, my cat, doing in your garden?

cat catching bird! impressive! I think only 1 or 2 of any of our cats over 30 year ever caught a bird. I only remember 1. had a girlfriend in my 20s, whose cat caught a bat, while we were grilling on her deck. that was exciting. but well done to your cat!

 

[DCLane]

What is Bob, my cat, doing in your garden?

You can have him back. He's big, noisy, not house-trained, demanding, aggressive and not even mine - it's my son's cat who's been away at university since late 2018.

Oh, and there's a vet's bill to pay for vaccinations. Just let me know where to send it

Err no.

Believe me.... unless "unavailable" is a euphemysm for some disfunction then all is not lost!

Had a lovely 20km ride in the sunshine today. It was still a bit chilly but very pleasant.
