Dreich morning here with an autumnal nip in the air.

In my favourite café for my Saturday morning fry-up and it seems the butcher messed up the order and there's no black pudding

This is the end of civilisation as we know it. Heads need to roll for this oversight

Back home after 43 miles including some across the border hills.
First cuppa went down well

A bright & breezy morning in this corner of Suffolk. Coffee downed while listening to the commentary streaming from Silverstone instead of actually being there thanks to the hotel room being cancelled. I'm not looking forward to the very early start tomorrow as I'll need to leave here somewhere around half past six to get there and in place for the first race of the day.

Ironing to be done after breakfast and I still need to get out and get some supplies for tomorrow.

The Fabia has thanked me for all the expensive TLC I gave it recently by dropping the driver's side window into the door and now I'm going to have to waste my afternoon taking the door padding off and seeing why that has happened. You need to employ a full time mechanic to run a Fabia it seems as there's always something wrong with it

I remember Skodas had this reputation when I grew up.

My goodness but it's all go on the domestic front...

Washed up.
Cleaned "kitchen".
Sorted the "bike corner" (no longer needed now the apartment owner says the bikes can stay in the garage).
Shelves put up and tidied (although not sorted).
Table turned around to take up less useful space, and just because I wanted to push the excitement up to 11 today:
New curtains ordered.

I'll need a cup of tea after all that...

At last! Something to look forward to.

I've booked my first flight outside Hong Kong since Jan 2020. The very strict Covid measures have, at last been almost removed now.

I'm off to Chiang Mai in Thailand for Easter.

Will be nice to travel again.

My flight to my holiday destination is underway.

Time for a second cuppa
@Speicher have a good flight

Except it's the whole VW group now that's a bit rubbish.

Back from 32ish miles. Held up in Prestbury by a rather clean and huge tractor and trailer - they were transporting wedding guests.

Time for a brew, grass to cut, bit of pottering etc.

Having got an unexpected soaking on this morning's ride I cut it short after a stop at a new café.

Now I'm warmed up and home it's a weekend of furniture moving ready for the decorator arriving on Monday. In typical 'empty nester' behaviour we're having four rooms decorated at once . It'll be a game of Tetris moving all the furniture into son no. 1's and 2's rooms plus space for SWMBO and myself, with the conservatory/workshop and kitchen taking all the downstairs furniture.

The next set of 'expected behaviours' should be a holiday plus a two-seat sports car

Oh, and @Speicher I presume this is your flight then

This'll be my chariot to Thailand next year.

The closest thing we have to Easyjet.
