Back, 30 quite greuling MTB miles virtually all on road unusual for me, got overtaken multiple times by those cheaters on their new fangled lightweight road bikes with skinny bald tyres, they should be ashamed of themselves. Present delivering this afternoon

I have lost my garden scissors. They may be in the compost heap.
Also lost my leucanthemum superbum, but they may reappear.

I have also lost about six pounds, but do not need to find them again.

It's a long time since my super bum has been seen.

I appear to have mislaid my big kitchen scissors. I've searched high and low so presumably they're somewhere in between.

It would appear that CC is getting me and deptfordmarmoset mixed up again, Speicher quoted your post and I got an Alert that I've been mentioned in the Mundane news thread.

Mmm... must watch Sharpe and Hornblower again (admittedly, I may have watched every episode of each before... once or twice... well, maybe eight or nine times... no more than twelve times... then again... )

I especially liked Hornblower. Thankfully they didn't try to produce more, that way disaster lies.

Oh I don't know, he's done well for a Friday night. Me, I'm a regular drinker so I have to keep my consumption down just low enough to be able to continue being a regular drinker for longer.

Edit: I thought I'd sneak in this last shot of the sun taking a final peak at us. (The BT tower reads ''Alert Control.'' I know this because I magnificated it.)

Not many horns left on the tower.

Indeed it does.

Pump & hose cleaned & put away. I just hope we don't have any more deluges.

Back in Stuttgart scheming to get the Xtracycle to Freiburg: I miss that bike.

 

[Ming the Merciless]

Had tear and share bread, platter of thin meats, hot chicken, mozerella balls, olives, tomato’s. Rather nice lunch.

General puttering about this morning. Food prepped for this evening. Burger and chips, so beef mince mixed with onion, pepper, salt, parsley, garlic, mustard, breadcrumbs and a splash of worcestershire sauce, and potatoes cut and soaking in salted water. Just need to sort out something salad-y.

Had a bleu d'auvergne and tomato chutney sandwich, half an avocado, a pear, some cherries and two for lunch.

I am now listening to Brighton v Arsenal. Still 0 - 0 at half time, but Bernd Leno has picked up a pretty bad injury. Never rains but it pours for us...

The theme in today's photography challenge is "Sports"

And to add to the list of mundaners' misplacements...

I can't find my tweezers.

Hmm... I was going out for a long Fen ride towards Ely today, but the weather forecast is looking a bit dodgy.

I’m turning into a real pussy when it comes to riding in a huge thunderstorm in the middle of nowhere.

And then the banjos start up.

And it's sod's law that it's dry around here, and has been all day.

I decided to man up and do the ride anyway. Needless to say it stayed dry.

Went past the end of your road. Kudos to you for cycling around there. The road surfaces west of you are biblically bad.

I found Ely cathedral a little disappointing - although some of the surrounding buildings were lovely.
