Freshly ground coffee on the go. Cup number 4

Am I weird for preferring instant coffee? I don't mind a latte from Costa or somewhere but other than that I can't see the attraction. Tea is another matter, I am discovering all sorts of teas that I like and those that make me want to spit them out. I am the same with wine, I just don't like it.

Still if we were all the same, life would be boring.

Coffee

On the other hand, I've had 4 huge cups of tea so far this morning...

Definitely coffee rather than tea, but instant is fine! But only had 2 so far.... however no 3 is calling

I'm the same on the coffee, but you probably are still weird (I am)

Four cups of tea this morning and a toasted banana sandwich.

The weather is looking suitable for my first 50k ride this weekend. I just need to decide where to go...

25 km away should do it.

It took me until half way through the month before I did my first. Mind you the weather didn't exactly encourage me to get out.

He pays me, @Speicher - though he does compensate me for my time by giving me fruit, veg & nuts from his garden. He can't get about so well (he'll be 90 in October) and hence I do part of his grocery shopping for him. Besides, he's a lovely chap and he enjoys the chat when I drop stuff by.

That is very neighbourly of you both, and lovely to hear. What nuts does he grow? I guess he likes being able to reciprocate.

One of the (many) things that I like about living here, is the lovely neighbours that I have. We are not in the habit of popping into each others' houses, but they are friendly and helpful.

1 tea, 1 coffee so far, just to even things up.

Birds are flocking to the feeders this morning as I forgot to put any food out for them yesterday, bad boy.

The sun is trying to defeat the clouds, when it does I shall be outside in the garden, sieving compost and digging out some very old plants while the ground is very soft. It is very heavy clay here, which soon goes rock solid if there is some dry weather.

The weight loss is going well, early days I know. I have lost just over two pounds in ten days. If If I continue to lose 6 pounds, or thereabouts, a month, I will be very pleased.

I like the fact that myfitnesspal also shows my daily salt consumption, which appears to be on the very low side.

Dr Phil Hammond was very good last night, what a thoroughly nice chap, he shook hands with every audience member when they went in and chatted in the bar during the interval. I didn't get a chance to ask him if he knew the Prof from the lecturing and TV luvvy circuit.

Most of the crowd were retirement age, as we were leaving 1 guy complained to his wife about Phil being very political... well... yes.. that is what he does

 

[fossyant]

Freshly ground coffee and certainly not that instant stuff. I also like tea.

Instant coffee is the work of the devil.

It would be if I could go to sleep first.... I'm too hot! This mild weather after the cold seems to have effected my sleep!

Well you were looking at warm loo seats at 3am!
