Roses are not the nice sweets they once were IMO. Cadbury's have lost the plot.

Wall to wall ☀ here in Hamtun!

Carpet layed and a few miles ridden

Huzzah! Sun is out, wind dropped and wet but no rain. Shower, sandwich and cycle!

They’ve lost the plot with the newer style wrappers that are all much the same. Makes them seem a bit cheap and nasty.

Walk time with MrsPete..
Then I think I'll have a snooze 🛏

That's the last of the home made cream of tomatoe soup consumed. Left overs from Christmas Day have been popped in a stew for later. Turkey carved up and bones ready to make stock. Been in the kitchen the last hour - boiled alive with the hob on.

If anyone fancies reliving Christmas on the cheap, Lidl are selling red cabbage, bags of sprouts and mini roasting potatoes all for the knockdown price of 14p. They were all around 50p last week. (I didn't check the turkeys...)

Sunny, cold and blustery here chez Casa Reynard.

I went out this morning as I needed a bulb for the landing. There's not a sniff of chocolates on clearance *anywhere* Usually I can lay in a year's supply pretty easily post-Christmas. What on earth am I going to do?

It all felt rather stressful as Ely was insanely busy, big groups of people standing and chatting everywhere. We're supposed to be in Tier 4 FFS!!! I cut my losses, did only what I had to and came home quickly. I will not be venturing out until New Year is done and dusted.

Oh and Storm Bella has sent one of my log bins up the road and shattered the top off a big conifer. Fortunately the bits of tree have fallen off cleanly, right next to my log store. That'll be a convenient clear-up.

Leftover turkey put out on back lawn for birds, or fox if the neighbour`s cats don`t get it first. Unfortunately for them all, the Red Kites were first, and my are they big when they swoop into the garden, only just enough space for them to swoop in and out! Way too fast for a photo.

They're yukky things, much too sweet. Fit only to be filed in the round cabinet right alongside Quality Street and Heroes...

Wow! That sounds dangerous and something I wouldn’t attempt without a cable harness, double mattress, a fully-trained team of acrobats and the Fire Service.

Please be careful; you don’t want to be anywhere near a hospital at the moment.

I plan on being careful. Need to round up all the equipment first. Needs to be done, but it's not a pressing matter.

Anyways, time for a and a mince pie.
