My new Minions arrived at school this morning for their first day. Quite a few dazed and confused 6 year olds.

My crumpets have grown a green coat. Looks like I'll be having toasted Hot Cross Buns for elevenses instead!

Every cloud has a silver lining.
hope you are feeling better today @Reynard . I found myself feeling sorry for your character.
8 miles on the bike this morning, taking in another 2 veloviewer squares. I am now one away from taking one of my 3x3 grids to a 4x4. Which I think I will do this afternoon.

Can you get tourist repellent?

Slurry spreader from a local farm but not noticed it recently. I think they have decided to cash in with a cafe and farm shop while this boom lasts
I remember them spreading opposite the campsite with a nice NW wind directly towards the site

I think there is an island off Scotland which wouldn't mind the last bit !

Not just one but all of them I think.

My latest email is from graham.giddings@btconnect.com. Just connect to a link and looks convincing but this time using my initials which BT do not use.
Nothing on my account when I go in separately.

The scams seem to be really picking up at the moment. Several of people on our local Facebook page complaining about dodgy phone calls too. Sadly some will be taken in by them

Having a cup of tea, and because I'm daring, a chocolate biscuit too.

Lunch today, which may bring up memories for @Oldhippy

 

[Oldhippy]

Yasai ramen for me please. 😁

In the tent in the garden with an alcohol-free Guinness, a cat who has forgiven me and a surprisingly large blister from being lazy and not putting socks on with my trainers before walking into town and back.

It looks like we are running out of margarine.

My prediction regarding traffic today worked out ok.
Nice trike run up Loch Etive with a bit of a diversion so total run of just over 15 miles in warm sunshine with virtually no traffic. Stopped a few times to watch wildlife I do not normally see and much different vegetation by the roadside.
The only problem is Queen’s Brae which is a pig of a hill but I seem to be getting better at getting up this.
No idea which queen inspired this name but certainly not recent.
Sat watching main road traffic which looks pretty busy and the interesting eddies on the surface of the outflow of Loch Etive with all sorts of birdlife flying past.

Were people younger in the 60's ?

I know I was !

I was too.

Don't they talk a load of 8ollocks! The rate in which retail outlets are closing has fallen !

I suppose in the same way in which a bald person's hair stops falling out !
