I sleep appallingly, last night no different. Positive ? I was up at 04.30 doing the kids ironing, that eases the rush between 07.00 and 08.30....when peace descends
I shall be having a nap later...

And edited to add..raining at 02.30 ish...never really heard it stop all night, worse now !!!!

Good morning from a fourth floor hotel room in very wet and miserable Nottingham. Today's view is over the rooftops with the NTU building just off to the left.

Coffee and a shower have been had, next up is breakfast in town with the train home in just over an hour. Waterproof jacket required.

Lots of mid air collisions!

Morning.
It is grey and tipping down here in Upper Cumberworth.
It was sunny yesterday. I saw 3 cyclists. One was on a minty green Bianchi, the other 2 were on black bikes.

I remember when all Bianchi bikes were cerise and you only saw them in sunny weather. I also remember when all Whytes bikes were black.

Meanwhile, back to the weather: it started drizzling around 6pm last night, got heavier (anyone who watched the Wembley game last night will know that it was pretty heavy throughout the game), and I don't think it's stopped since.

Second cuppa o'clock time

 

[Jenkins]

Just waiting for the train to divide (the rear two carriages stay at Nottingham*) and then we're off. At least it's now merely raining rather than persisting it down so I don't have to put up with soggy jeans for the day.

* And before someone says it, yes I am in the front carriage.

And that's another free train trip being had. Already 15 minutes late and there's a speed restriction on the main line to Peterborough which means a missed connection at Ely. The delay repay claim will be submitted to EMR later.
