Lunchtime cycle, all a bit muddy and damp but pleasant sunshine. Temperature almost double digits.
Now I have to deal with a toilet that is blocked. Why, how or where is not clear.
I have noticed our paper consumption has risen recently.

Just unblocked our toilet this evening!

Another thread was discussing Amazon prime ....
Googled options for plungers and the like, and ordered a "toilet snake kit" and it came today about 6pm. So pleased with my Amazon subscription.

An hour spent using the snake to drag out a mass of wet wipes that somebody in this house had thrown down the pan and it was clear again and all working again.

Well, I'm up do-do creek.

Drive from the deep south to Yorkshire.
We are at a wedding tomorrow.

Unloading the car.
Where's my suit cover?
What suit cover?

The one showing in the sitting room on the home security system.
Oh, gosh that is annoying.
Putting aside the fact that my departure was presurised and rushed is not a point that it is smart to make right now.

My options, in the morning?
Balls it out and wear the smart casual cords, button down Oxford shirt a racy merino jumper?
Have a contrasting cord shacket that might pass for trendy.
Or panic early and get a more suitable outfit?

This is compounded by the fact that I don't really want to be here. Certainly don't want to buy more clothes in a little Yorkshire town where you don't go without a hat.
It's very windy and even for March it's very cold.
Doh!

Betazoid weddings are SO much less hassle.

Although Yorkshire in March might be pushing it somewhat...

Time to bank the fire and hobble off upstairs to bed via a nice hot bath.

I'm up. Dog's out in the garden tiddling. Tea's brewing.

Wouldn’t it be a really slow time? It would take you an hour more to do the distance

I don't know! It would set an all time record though!

Morning.
It is getting brighter out. I can see some blue sky and light cream clouds.

I was watching the Big Cat programme on the Beeb last night. 8 know they say that the camera peeps don't get involved whereas I would be shooting any animals which I thought were really nasty , be it Killer Whales, Hyenas, Wolves, Lions, Artic Skuas. The filming was concentrating on a weak lion cub which was starving and had got wounded in his side. The cub had wandered off on his own to try to find his mother. It was getting very tense! Luckily he found his mother and the pride had killed a large animal so he could get some food at last. I then noticed that the cub had some stitches on his wound!
