The world was not to my liking today so I am taking my new trousers for a walk. I can't replace my walking boots until next week, so had to pick a route mainly on road. Plugged into podcasts and walked to a lovely cafe which is going some way to remind me that I'm fortunate enough to have small problems that only look big because they're close up right now.

Was that on the redways ?

All shared used paths, maybe a bit of Redway, too.
The circuit of Willen itself is wide (nearly) all the way round but is ridiculously busy weekends & holiday times.

Anyone got any Prime Day deals ? My cats have. 240 packs of food for £60. Normally £70 ish these days, but a 40 pack in the supermarket is around £13 at cheapest, £18 saved ! That will keep them going for a month.

You must be fuming

I remember being fumed in my air cooled VW van when the heat exchanger perforated on the way home from Wales in Mid October. We had to drive the rest of the way about 300 miles with the windows open as we were driving overnight up the M6. Something had also gone wrong with the controls as it could not be isolated from the cab.

Yes, some problems do look very big in close up. Also it is near impossible to juggle more than two problems at a time.

Sometimes, actually quite often, I have to think about which is the two biggest problems and the others can wait. Sometimes I do not try to solve the problems before getting some fresh air and exercise in the garden.

I've been in the garden this afternoon, a little deadheading and hoeing in the autumn sunshine, very therapeutic, , makes life's problems seen small and distant, its almost as good as cycling.

When you are going home in 40 minutes, and you realise you've not dried your cycling gear from the morning's commute

I was terribly, terribly offended by @Reynard assuming my species identity: I am generally more of a dog person.
