Working day completed

Shopping done for a card and present for my stepfather's birthday on Saturday (which I'll miss due to travelling) and food for the rest of the week. This was followed by a trip to Halfords in Ipswich which I spent most of the time riding one handed with the other brushing various flies off my arms & legs.

Cold meat rolls for tea.

Afternoon sunny trek to the local health centre next to the Co-op to see I thought a physio. Turned out to be a doctor who decided I needed to see a physio but that transpired to be not until 11 June. In the meantime told to get my left knee x rayed. I'll try that on Thursday, its a turn up and wait....starting at 8.30.

Too warm to do anything active this afternoon after getting food shopping delivered, hoping it will cool a fraction after dinner to pop out for a gentle ebike ride with lots of legal assistance.

Tomorrow looks a washout until 1900ish, might be a good excuse to take the hybrid out to give it a wash of sorts!

It's been a lovely warm and sunny day here chez Casa Reynard, although it's clouded over now.

Slept really well after putting an extra blanket back on the bed. Had a choresy morning doing all those little jobs that always seem to need doing. Spotted two red oranges in my fruit store that were looking a bit tired, so I peeled them, cut up the segments and popped them in a tupperware in the fridge.

Had a lovely luncheon of a wholemeal roll filled with thinly-sliced gammon & mustard, a medley of fruit (banana, strawberries, red oranges) and the obligatory

After half an hour in a camping chair with a good book, I took the mower out and did the grass cutting I wanted to do ahead of a change in the weather. It was supposed to rain here tomorrow, but of course, the forecast has now changed, and it will stay dry. Never mind, it wanted doing anyway.

Now sat down with a and a chocolate biskit.

Time to feed the cat, and then it will be time to feed me.

Needed some attachments for the Karcher vacuum cleaner that 'fell off the back of a truck' a few years back.
Went to the two agents for Karcher who couldn't help, then remembered the wee manny on Norwich market who runs a 'domestic appliances' stall.
Bought three nicely fitting attachments of 'suspect parentage' for £7.
Result and a win for an independent trader - !

I really should get out of this chair and make a hot chocolate and a glass of squash otherwise I'm going to nod off.

Fabby supper of grilled tuna steak, potato salad made with a yoghurt & mint dressing (ok, the leftover raita from yesterday), plus coleslaw, lettuce and tomatoes on the side.

Yes that is road rash as also elbow, wrist, hand, and knee. Bruising is upper body / shoulder where the deer hit.

Arnica to speed up clearing the bruising.

Could be moist overnight.
