Having added my mother's debit card to my digital wallet as part of a gradual taking over her financial affairs, I've just managed to accidentally buy myself a beer with her card. I think I've reset the wallet so that it comes out of my account. I'll have to try it out now....

Twenty-two miles today on the single speed and I risked a somewhat hilly route this time.

Did you accidentally drink it as well?

Power of Attorney?
No idea if this is UK wide on only Scotland but my son has Lasting Power of Attorney which means if I get
ga ga he can get complete control over my life including financial affairs.
Ordinary P of A only covers finance but this other covers every aspect of any remaining life.

A large bird dropped a salvo on my car so I went out to wash off the offending muck . I then decided to wax my car . I haven't done it for a while as it has either been too sunny or raining . Today was just right .

Was a lovely mild and sunny but rather blustery day here chez Casa Reynard.

Did not sleep well (too achey after yesterday, and brain wouldn't switch off), so slept in a bit again. Prepped the fruit and topping for a crumble, and then listened to the F1 from Singapore while enjoying a and a sausage sandwich.

After the race, I went walnutting again - to my favourite tree this time. As it's been picked clean to well above head height, this is now a furkle on hands and knees job. The blustery wind worked in my favour, and I picked a whole wicker basket full. Most of them are out of the husks already, so just need to set them out to dry. Today's haul tops out at six kilos.

Had soup, a sausage roll and crumble and custard for supper. The crumble is lush - it's apple, pear & blackberry.

Now watching the F1 highlights.

Ever considered building a pumpkin chucker?

No, but I took pictures of the University's at the big contests, They just had a trebuchet, not a long-range field artillery looking thing running off compressed air like the big players. Those contests were held near Morton, Illinois as a part of the annual Pumpkin Festival, which has been held since the 1970's.

I took the pictures, the trebuchet was for the students to play with.

Short flights by the students?

Plum crumble and custard...

Wanted ginger cheesecake but wasn't allowed it as the crumble is older...
