You have just reminded me that I was going to make a rhubarb crumble today. Thank you.

Morning .
I have to go out and collect my prescription this morning .
We went to Swindon yesterday to our grand daughter's birthday. It was nice and sunny and warm . I wasn't sure if I needed a coat but thought I should be alright with a thin pullover. It was bl**dy freezing in Swindle ! They had the doors of their house wife open and there wasn't a place to hide! It was warm in the sunshine but the wind was freezing .

I just realised it's April and I haven't gone on a decently long ride yet. I'm wondering if I can rectify that on Saturday with a ride to France.

Washer caught fire?
Bit of a drastic way of drying them.

Washing machines can catch fire and do so surprisingly often according to our local Fire Brigade. I never leave mine on if I am not around as one did after a solenoid failure. Fortunately my wife was in the kitchen and stopped it in time to prevent further damage.

Forecast says low chance of precipitation. They got that a bit wrong as it is now precipitating so not going out triking this morning.
Rest of the week looks good tho' and into next week as well. I hope to be off on mainland to take advantage of it for a couple of days from Sunday.
This coming weekend is the annual Music Festival with something for every taste. A shadow of what it used to be but given the pandemic I don't think it would be safe for me to go to any events and in any case I would not want to go on my own. I can sit in my garden and listen tho' as some of the outdoor events try to broadcast to Tiree due to the volume control being stuck on the highest setting.

Lovely 6 mile dawn walk, with dog, from The World's End, around Sywell Res & back, this morning. Not many other people out & about, strangely!

I spent my teenage years largely in Birmingham; even after two decades here the novelty hasn't worn off yet.

Currently wondering whether try for Colmar, which is just beyond my current furthest point, or go for broke and aim for Strasbourg.

I think I am bored ! It might be lock down fever ! I don't know !
I have become a bit obsessed with the cheap camera which seems as though it will end up being costly . £60 for a lens ! Well that is what one went for on the bay . The idea of a Nikon to Pentax converters are thin on the ground and are over £20+. I haven't really discovered if the camera is fully working yet . That will be the next step !
I have some art work to finish off for the museum , I also have plenty of work around the house to do. Then there is the garden ! . A water butt has decided to leak so that has given me an opportunity to fix that !

I think I'll go off and sniff some mint leaves! I really do ! They smell nice ! Trouble is they aren't about at the moment .

Sorry !

I thought all 'restrictions' were lifted in the UK?
