Ride It Like You Stole It!
Location
South Manchester
Just had a four mile walk around Manchester. Parked up at First Street. Walked over to Castlefield to have a sneaky peaky at the set of Peaky Blinders. Stopped outside The Garrison, but they weren't serving pints. Carried on past the old ruins in Castlefield, then over the river into Salford to show my daughter where her mum's new office is (in normal times). Then wandered back over the river, up King Street and towards China Town.

Mosley Street was closed off due to a gun incident last night on a tram ! Popped into China Town, stopped off at a chinese supermarket then headded home. Poor Yang Sing had gone up in smoke this morning (famous restaurant). Loads of fire engines. Final visit was a Korean supermarket on Oxford Road for some 'bits' my daughter wanted.

Never seen Manchester so quiet.

Chilly and still but very sunny here chez Casa Reynard. This morning, it was "where's the rest of the world gone", it was that foggy.

Feeling really meh. Not much sleep as I'm really struggling with an allergy issue. Not sure what's setting me off, and it's driving me up the wall. Tossed and turned for most of the night, up to mop streaming eyes and nose upmpteen times. Gave in and took a whole tablet of Cetirzine.

Wrong move.

Since 5am, I am now more bunged than a bung in a bunged up barrel.

At least Arsenal gave Leicester a good thrashing earlier, though.
 
Landlady's family are over for a visit. They have a dog, so Landlady's dog and Visiting dog (which travels on a Bakfiets, BTW) are chasing each other around the garden.

Another sunny, cold and windy day here which is getting tedious. Tomorrow will be just as windy but with highs well above freezing. My eldest son and I have a deal whereby we have to do at least 50 pushups every day. That, plus some man yoga yesterday has left me a bit sore so there will be something else today. -9C at the moment but I will leave a space heater on in my primary bike shed and fool around with a couple of bikes later . There are Target stores here which sell some food, clothes, cosmetics, household goods etc... what I would call a big box dept store. Perhaps we'll go there this afternoon. We go in for a couple of things and leave $200 lighter.
