Finished an unpleasantly sweaty session at the osteopath. Now going to seek out a pork pie and ride home with it in the basket of my bike*
*assuming my bike still has both wheels. I am still slightly bitter about cctv cameras whose views of bike racks are blocked by trees.

Me too. Wasn't intentional though. I usually use the longest setting on my hair trimmer, but this time started to use it straight out of the box. Forgetting that I had stored it on zero setting! So no option but to do the rest on the zero setting.

Must admit though that it feels quite nice and I might even do it again!

For anyone wondering, bike was still fully intact and secured when I got back to it. I’d left in the most open and visible bike rack I could find. Wonderful osteopath said “oh, you could have brought it in here”. I know for next time.

I would try that but I think my wife may kill me.

Start of the week, then it'll have time to grow back before she sees it.

Alas for that plan, video calls are a thing these days...

Clock in the showroom has just chimed 12 minute to two.

No-one knows why.

Being in Germany, is donging in metric instead of Imperial?

Still and hot here chez Casa Reynard, with hazy sunshine.

I slept OK for a change. Have taken it easy this morning, sorting out some paperwork, photographing some artwork and editing the writing that I did over the weekend. Lexi has not been taking it easy, and has brought me a large, fat mouse.

And you know it's hot when I give in and break out the shorts.

It is almost time for luncheon.

I've been for a mainly shady ride in Delapre Abbey grounds.

What a relief, for a moment l read that as "dogging"

 

[Reynard]

A bit of a bitsas luncheon. Finished off the last of the pork pie, and had the last of the cream cheese on some fruited sourdough bread. Then I had a nectarine, the last of the cherries and two

I am going to go and wash my hair, and then go and sit outside with a book and dry it in the sun.

How about that for an energy-saving tip?

Is it to remind you to mend the clock?
