[Reynard]

Blustery and mostly sunny day here chez Casa Reynard.

Sat here listening to Arsenal v Man Utd.

Didn't get to bed till after 4 am thanks to Madam Poppy, who sat staking out a hole in the hallway. I can't leave her in there overnight without access to food, water etc, so I had to wait up for her. As a result, I feel bleurgh and boy is she in the dog house... Of course, she's now fast asleep on my bed... Cats, eh.

A late luncheon, and then it's snooker and the sprint race (on the radio) from Imola.

 

[Reynard]

Was it really cheap ? Are you going to return it ?

I paid £12 plus postage, so not exactly bargain basement, but not spendy either. The mens' versions are in the *OUCH* territory.

No, I'm not going to return it. I really like it and think it's worth persisting with. It kept going all night and is still going. I need to work out exactly how long it will go for before stopping, and how well it will wind. I think all it wants is a clean.

 

[Reynard]

Is it one of those sprint race things today ?

I'm starting to go off F1 with all it's messing about .

I wish that spoilt brat's engine blows up again just to make things interesting.

Yes... 15:25 on Radio 5 Live Sports Extra.

George Russell was fastest in this morning's FP

So @Reynard knows it's her fridge.

Obviously.

Lovely luncheon of fruited sourdough, smoked sausage and gruyere cheese. Plus a banana, grapes and two

Settling down to listen to the sprint race from Imola.

 

[Reynard]

Sprint race listened to, a few chores done, and now I can just kick back and relax.

 

[Reynard]

Oh yes, and the watch is still running and keeping good time. It's been going for just over 18 hours.

It's and biskit time.

I’ve always liked my tea at 5 or shortly after. Sadly I don’t have your cooking skills so tonight’s tea was a popty ping chicken and chorizo jambalaya. It was rather tasty.

TV is the usual Saturday dross so I might have a walk later since it’s such a lovely evening then watch an old Midsomer Murders on ITV3 at 9pm.

I had a 5 o'clockish dinner because I've been feeling hungry all day. I even had a rare breakfast this morning. My stomach is now in hypergurgle mode.

I eat about 8-ish in the evenings, ergo the and smackerel of something after 5. Tonight will be another "see what's in the fridge that wants using" job. So the poppity ping will likely be involved.

Am well catered with snooker, F1 and MOTD for this evening's televisual entertainment.

Dinner/tea for me is 6.30pm for a few days rather than 6pm or just-before-we-leave if there's racing/training.

More of help-yourself at the hotel restaurant, following the Swordfish steak I had last night.

I'm down to my last muslin cloth; a remnant from when my kids were milky mouthed babies... And also my favourite rag. I'll miss the rags (I don't think I can just by them for rag purposes)... but team, they are growing up so fast...

Swordfish is lovely
