I think I am up

 

[Andy in Germany]

We've got British level rain for the next three days. Lots of model making today methinks.

I'm up. Dog's out in the garden tiddling. Tea's brewing. First load of washing in the machine on Night-time leccy.

Morning.
The Sun is becoming lazy these days! Gone 6.30 and it hadn't bothered to get up!
Clear sky here at the moment.

Leave to remain seems a right contradiction to me if every I saw one!

Nice 6 miles to drop off the soft plastic recycling.
Chilly glad I put trousers instead of shorts on.
Clear blue sky and sunshine
First cuppa brewing

Apparently, the World Conker Championship in Southwick Northamptonshire has been cancelled as the conkers are too small ☹️

We picked some last week and they were only very small so I can believe it, down to the lack of rain??

I was hearing the same on Scotland Outdoors last week, about barley rather than conkers. The rain came too late in the summer so the grains haven’t got to the required size for malting. Means that they are having to go for feed or just chucked.

Definitely weather related..

I cycled over to the Championships a few years ago..
Great fun!

First cuppa went down well enough.
Granddaughter duties later so a trip to numpton is on the cards

Good morning from a 4th floor hotel room in Nottingham. Coffee has been had to kick start my system after a very good evening.

The sun is out, the skies are blue and it's time to head into town for breakfast and then on to the train station for the trip home (normal route, not the longer one today).

3 mugs of rather good tea, now on the 2nd mug of coffee. The first coffee was slightly disappointing so I ground some more beans for the second.

Sunny and fresh outside, it's giving me Wanderlust but I can't really get away until later in the week.

Refreshing the MOT checker web site to see when the Aygo fails the MOT - already told them the exhaust flange on the cat is corroded badly (found it yesterday) so hopefully any other 'faults', if there are any, can be booked in for a fix. Looks like it will be a new cat for the Aygo, as the exhaust manifold and cat is one piece. Shame it's gone for such a small part failing.

Second cuppa went down well.
