Very odd eve, took Mrs LL out for birthday din dins at are local restaurant , won't mention what we had in case it's claimed to be too poncy, however owner gave us a bottle of wine and asked us to stay for an hour ish, so that he could claim to have no spare tables as main chef had not turned up! Told him if he kept giving me freebies I would stay all night Will see what a good idea it was on club run tomorrow

Sitting at seafood restaurant for lunch, waiting for Mrs. GA and listening to some vintage Mahler recordings on a local show about Bruno Walter while I wait in the car.

I have the ear worm of the year. Ahoy!!!! I believe it's your fault

I made hamburgers on the grill, with my special ketchard sauce, just the thing after an afternoon helping the cycling masses at the co-op.

Song of the Earth's Sorrow, Vienna 1952 recording, with Kathleen Ferrier. Best yet. I did not have any idea that Bruno Walter was so closely involved with Mahlers' completion of this work. He premiered it, soon after Mahler's death.

Morning. It looks lovely out, the sun shining brightly casting a golden glow over everything and a light turquoise sky with a few mauve streaky clouds.

Both cats were really hungry this morning and so I had to open up another sachet of food for them. Gwen is at this moment trying to sleep on my lap and so is preventing me from making another hot drink. Schrodie I assume is asleep on his chair.
We had another Flagondry Visit our pond yesterday, I think word is gradually getting around that there is a pond there. The Hedgehogs visit the base of the bird table each evening, last night an adult shot across our garden like a Greyhound without stopping for food, later on I heard a lot of snorting going on in my neighbours garden.

...except I'm still full of cold.

I hope you get better soon. Could you sit outside and enjoy he sun?

Blue sky from horizon to horizon today. It is the HSBC Ride Leicester today and I'm leading a big group from the pub into town to ride the circuit. Afterwards the landlord has laid on a bbq and live band. A perfect summer Sunday.
