That could be a pain in the backside.

Only if your personal geography is different to most people's I believe

@Jenkins - I have one of those mini PC's as my Zwift setup.

 

[Reynard]

It's been a warm, blustery and occasionally sunny day here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept well, but felt totally washed out after yesterday's mower shenanigans. And my right knee is not terribly happy. A choresy morning was had, including pilling the cat, prepping fruit for a small batch of strawberry jam, watering and feeding all the planters and re-jigging the fridges in the kitchen and utility room.

Tea and toast for luncheon.

Spent a chunk of the afternoon making a dent in the cataloguing of photos for my archive. I've managed to accumulate a backlog of around 70 images. Doing it according to file name for now, will do the thumbnails when I've got down all the details etc. And am learning my way around Libre Office at the same time.

At tea time, took myself off to Aldi. I didn't need enough in terms of groceries this week to make it worthwhile going to Tesco - where I'm much more likely to get distracted. Aldi is a reasonable alternative if I only want a few bits, plus I needed to stock up on herbal teas and set honey. They are the cheapest on such around here. Picked up raspberries and grapes on sticker.

Supper was a bacon & avocado sandwich, and a salad on the side.

A quiet evening is planned.

And after a quiet evening cataloguing photos, it's time I went to bed.

Time for a ride

 

[Flick of the Elbow]

Good morning all, grey and blustery again this morning.

 

[deptfordmarmoset]

Good morning all, grey and blustery again this morning.

It's also grey and blustery down in England's capital.

 

[Pduk]

Morning all, grey start to the day, but cuppa has been cobbled together so all is good.
Yesterdays day off work for a bike ride failed, after getting a puncture and realising the inner tubes for the new bike are slightly bigger than the ones I had meant I completed a mammoth 3 miles in total!
Going to get some correct tubes today so I can head out tomorrow for a better ride 🤞

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

Urgh, just had a Stoma leakage and have pooed the bed.

Brilliant! ☺️🤦‍♂️🤣

 

[biggs682]

Just over 43 miles of relaxation
Overcast and blustery
First cuppa brewing

 

[biggs682]

First cuppa went down well.

 

[deptfordmarmoset]

Today's mug achievements so far:
Tea #1
Tea #2
Tea #3
Coffee #1.

I think another coffee will extend the sequence.

Good morning from a grey and overcast Suffolk. Looks to be quite breezy out there as well which should dry up the dampness from a little bit of overnight rain.

Coffee has been had and a small bowl of porridge has had to suffice for breakfast as I only had a little bit of milk left - I knew there was something I needed to get yesterday. Can't decide whether to bike or take the train into Ipswich to have a look at the traction engine run.
