Morning.
I did the cooking last night . I went out and caught for and chips .
Georgie decided to be a dirty stop out last night . My wife went out to call him in but he refused to come in. We could see him but he was having too much fun . This morning he was waiting to give me a brief cuddle and then shot out . He is now locked in after I gave him his food .

I'm sorry but I thought that E racing was boring! I watched a bit of it and couldn't take any more. I don't like street circuits at the best of times Monaco being the exception. I think I may have an aversion to wire mesh !

We've watched the 1966 Grand Prix dvd that I ordered . It was interesting to see the the drivers hadn't got round to wearing seat belts by that time. Another thing that you tend to forget is how much the circuits have changed over the years. Monza doesn't use the high banked section any more. Spa is almost in recognisable on the lower section, the pits must have been added later. I thought the car's seemed to go through the Loew's Hotel tunnel rather quickly, it turns out that it was extended in 1973. The pit area must also be new as would seem that they must have used it as part of the circuit In the 60's.
I've now ordered a copy of Two Men Went To War.

How odd!
Car manufacturers had to fit seatbelts in cars from 1965 yet racing drivers weren't wearing them in 1966. I thought that a lot of car technology came from a result of racing !

Morning, it's all very sunny here too. Chilly though - there's still frost on the roofs.

I'm riding to No 1 daughter's house this morning to see if her tumble dryer is fixable, or not.

Then I have to go to work 😔

Now I'm unpacking my bags. I'm running a little late as I came back on Thursday.

There was a lot of dirty washing, now in the washer.

Also, I have to cook some chicken...

Just washed the curtains in the only part of the apt that has them (I have blinds elsewhere)

Got things ready for returning to school tomorrow am.

Fitted in a 22 mile ride today as well. Now supping a Sauvignon Blanc.

I had the urge to get out of London so I took off in the car. I've just had fish and chips on the beach at Great Yarmouth.
