[Reynard]

Had a lovely luncheon of two slices of wholemeal toast, one with filet americain, one with the last of the burrata cheese, plus a banana, a nectarine and two

After lunch, took out the sledgehammer, rolled up my sleeves and took out about six feet of the concrete that had pulled away from the wall. Another 12 feet to go. Tapped the loose bricks back into place and blocked off the new rat hole / wedged everything in with some scraps of paving slab I found in the "pile of useful masonry" stashed behind the garage.

After the weekend I shall go to Jewson to get a sack of cement and a few other gubbins so that I can repair everything properly. And then will gradually work my way along the wall, repointing and adding a new layer of external render.

My treat was sitting in my camping chair listening to FP2 from Silverstone on my phone.

Now sat with a and a chocolate biskit.

I'm having a choco break & a coffee. I might have a doze shortly.

It's World Chocolate Day today.

Its a bit warm out .

We were watching The Chase. It seemed like the chaser was given the easiest questions .
I think I can smell something that Reynard is infested with !

I'm back from haddock and chips (églefin frites) on the Whitstable seafront, watching small clouds bubbling up over the Isle of Sheppey, followed by mango and raspberry sorbet from the gelateria. Low 30s. Also bought some rather intriguing smoked salmon pastrami. That'll do for tomorrow.

There were lots of flying ants around today. Quite a few of them perished on the windscreen.

I suppose I'd better go and water my triffids again.

Oh, that sorbet sounds utterly lush @deptfordmarmoset

I adore mango and I adore raspberries.

The little black flies I call Thunder Bugs are starting to be a pain Using the bald part of my head as a skating rink and my beard to play hide and seek
Had the gutters cleaned he also checked the ridge tiles Some were loose He reset them

The ones that congregate on the brow of a hill, just at that point when you realize you're up it and you take a deep breath resulting in you getting an extra meat ration.

I'm sat in Dore near Sheffield waiting to ride a hill climb. It's closed road with 100+ entries.

Son no. 2 starts 3 minutes after me. I must not be caught ...

 

[Reynard]

Triffids watered, alpine strawberries picked and cats fed.

Soon it will be time to feed me.

A bit of Wimbledon on as the slow roast lamb niffs drift on to the patio. With sweet potato and salad, can't wait.

I've been sat outside catching up on F1 practice. Praying we get a decent challenge to Max on sunday, can't really see it though?

Solar power made 13 kwh so far today. It has been sunny all day, but with the odd cloud, so I presume that is the maximum during the summer.
