fwiw - some time ago I decided to get all the phone numbers for all the police departments (direct) for all the towns I drive thru, into my phone. so now if I see a public safety concern I call call the correct office & get a live person

Is that a comparison of your lawn mowing standards with those of your neighbour?

A mild, blustery and occasionally sunny day here chez Casa Reynard.
I slept well, but had some very odd dreams - a racing driver training to be a vicar and then he and I and a couple of friends sailing across some water somewhere on a yacht with Manchester United-logoed sails on it as part of some kind of a race to somewhere - I think it might have been China. Just don't ask...
Could have stewarded at Cam Cat today, but decided not to. Although I do have to organize a steward for myself as I'm booked to judge at an all-breed show in a month's time and could use the extra help. Normally I prefer to work on my own, but a bigger show = more paperwork = more legwork, so it helps to have a minion, if only to keep the table workers happy.
Spent the morning puttering about in the garden. Snowdrops are all done now, but my, the daffodils are putting on a right show. Got some narcissi flowering as well, though they tend to be later. It's funny though - the yellow daffodils tend to get left well alone, but someone has been munching on the white ones...
I think I shall spend the afternoon writing.
Anyways, it is almost time for luncheon.

Yes, I'm aware of the rink in Cambridge, but none of my friends seem to want to get together to have a go. Mind you, the suggestion to book a karting session also fell rather flat on its face.
I prefer doing fun / interesting things to sitting in a bar gradually getting bladdered, and £20-ish for an evening out is now not a lot tbh. It's way cheaper than the aforementioned bar, and much more entertaining. (I'm teetotal btw, but still...)

It's a club, so go along and make new, better, Curlier friends and leave your other crap ones behind! You'll thank me for it... Err, probably 😆

Lovely luncheon of two slices of wholemeal toast, one with pepperoni, one with cream cheese, plus a Lane Late orange, some blueberries and the obligatory two
