Back from a pleasant walk with the 🐶 around Harleston Firs..

It can get a bit mucky in places but I managed to keep her clean 👍

I fell over in the street today. Not sure I tripped on anything but one minute upright the next blam, floor. Bruises in a couple of places and my shoulder is telling me it doesn't appreciate meeting the ground at speed.

For me, some years ago, it was one of those wire rings inside hubcaps, like having your feet tied together. Embarrassing.

Swollen face noticeably less so this morning so decided against a trip to A&E. 38 mile car journey on work matters instead and after only one reasonable nights sleep (last night) since last Friday/Saturday was beginning to feel a bit tired towards its end. Noted plenty of cyclists making use of the fine if slightly windy weather.

Just arrived at Ely station on the way to Nottingham. Somewhere in one of carriages there's a baby crying loudly and, judging by the aroma, I think the parent has just changed it on one of the tables instead of using the accessible toilet with the necessary facilities 💩

How many Bank Holidays does the UK get next month? The first Monday is the usual one, and then one at the end of the month. Do we get another one on the 8th, two days after the Coronation?

I've just had my 5th covid vaccine. Normally you have to be 75+ to be eligible but I'm slightly immuno-compromised so qualify that way.

Just bought a DIY/Flat Pack kit.

Don't surprise me once spotted someone going the same thing on the floor of a shopping centre. Feet away from the baby changing room.

Thank you

I am not working, but like to know the dates of Bank Holidays. There is a carnival/fair here on the 29th, and there may be other events on the other two.

Lunchtime stroll completed chilly out

Cloudy early doors, but it's a lovely sunny spring day here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept well, and spent the morning doing some writing and tinkering with the mower. I have it on the battery charger, and then this afternoon, I need to finish rebuilding the steering and front end. It took ages for the parts to turn up (mower is rather elderly), and now, at last, I have a full complement of pieces. The final bit in the puzzle was the doodad that locks the steering arm in place on the stub axle, and without it, the steering is as mushy as a mushy thing.

And yes, I did try it sans doodad, but let's just say the trial didn't last terribly long.

Anyways, it is time for luncheon.
