I shall repot some houseplants later.

Always thought you were a pot head.

Started off a lovely warm sunny day here chez Casa Reynard, but now it's pishing it down.

Inevitably, the morning was spent on chauffeur duties at the parental's behest. The afternoon was spent in the kitchen doing stuff, and now that I've got some free time, I definitely can't get a bicycular bimble in. Bah, humbug.

At least I had a lovely lunch of a chunk of melton mowbray pork pie, then a sandwich with lox* and a schmear, plus an apple and some raspberries and two

The soup I've made does smell good, tho - curried parsnip & potato.

* homemade gravlax using an adaptation of a Hairy Bikers recipe. Beats the socks off anything that's bought.

Had a couple of showers here this afternoon, so damp underfoot outside.
Another busy working day completed.

Looks like the Hebridean Princess returned after overnighting at anchor a couple of miles away.
Cannot see her from my windows but probably alongside at Macbrayne pier.
Lots of lost looking peds wandering past and all look a bit lost while gazing at phones. Well dressed and the men are wearing hats rather than caps with longish grey hair. They all look very similar being tall and slim. Probably off the cruise ship and getting a bit of shore leave. This is not a cheap cruise ship.
Spent most of the day looking at old photos on various devices but I will not bore you with more just now.
I do have a couple of steam lorries and some other steam stuff taken in Lerwick a few years ago but more suited to a different thread.

Gardening has been done, interspersed with cups of coffee when rain showers struck.

 

[Reynard]

Time to feed the cats, and the it'll be time to feed me.

A nice evening walk completed without any rain which was good .

 

[rockyroller]

today, I have taken tomorrow off

 

[rockyroller]

I've grown accustomed to shorter, darker days. it's quite peaceful
now I have have to perk up & get used to all this daylight!

as-in:

• bright out, get out of bed & do something!
• still light out, why are you on the couch, already?

 

[rockyroller]

the tide has come in
