Waiting for Tinybug to get dressed so we can go on bike ride.

By the sounds coming from her room she's been distracted by the "animal hospital" we built yesterday..,

My daughter is staying a few days but she is a teenager and thinks 11am is early and considers any distance further than half a mile without sustenance or a shop a feat of human endurance!

Tinybug has now decided to make an Easter egg hunt for her brothers. She tends to forget where she hid the Easter eggs or how many there are, so we'll probably still be finding them in September...

I managed to convince myself that I don't really understand Easter because I'm not religious. So I'm wishing everybody a happy spring festival. I'm also doing some laundry while the sun warms the world up. As I'm also in the middle of doing some washing up and drinking tea, and have just had a long shower, I think I really ought to be celebrating warm water.

No cycling today as it's Easter and the routes I normally take will be full of hikers, if Saturday is anything to go by, and they're a pain.

Did some weight training instead today.

Now, on to my Cantonese lesson. Wish me luck.

Chinese tomorrow.

I've just come back from helping my wife set up her gazebo at the sports ground . Some do on today .
It is still a bit chilly , the sun is shining but it is hiding in hazy cloud .

I'm doing some preparation for this afternoon/evening BBQ.

Fire extinguisher has been dusted off ready for use 😂

Here are some Bluebells & some Whitebells...
Or are they white Bluebells?
I'm confused.. 🤔

Youngest granddaughter, on seeing bluebells for the first time, protested loudly: ''Purple!'' I think she might insist that your white ones are in fact yellow.

Trying to get next week organised. I'm supposed to be on a regular pattern of two days in one centre and three days at the bike workshop but as usual this isn't going to work and I'm in three different places next week, with one days training in fire prevention.

Are the training courses there as utterly mind numbingly dull and stating the bleeding obvious as they are here?

I'll let you know on Thursday.

Apparently it's one condition of being allowed to temporarily keep using the building we are in, which is essentially a very large tinder box.

In the UK now you do manual handling course on a computer screen. Utterly pointless exercise at every level.

Laundry on line and next set in in the machine. Laundry takes ages now thanks to the eco washing cycle. Never mind. Coffee made. In the garden listening to cycling podcasts.

Deptford has its own unnervingly named Tinderbox House. Talk about tempting fate!
