Interestingly manifesto, though! 😋

What about unicyclists who break the Highway Code? Point 9.

They're still ridden by cyclists.

I've still got a couple of chocolate Santas to scoff - best before date was the end of March, but I'm not fussy.

They usually have an 18 month edible period, before it starts to bloom. You may have to leave it be.

The evening's hot chocolate has just been had. Nothing else has been done this evening.
No rain yet.

It's been a rather warm and mostly sunny day here chez Casa Reynard, with a brisk south-easterly breeze early doors.

Slept pretty well - almost eight hours after falling asleep to New Zealand v Egypt. Downstairs, fed the cat, made a and took it upstairs to do some writing. Made good progress after not really touching things over the weekend.

Did the chores at a better hour, including some laundry. Also watered all the planters. My tomato plants are doing super well, and already have lots of little baby tomatoes.

Lovely luncheon of a cheese salad sandwich, a pear with greek yoghurt, and a small pot of tea.

Spent the afternoon working in the garden. Needed to deal with some fairly large nettles, but it's too hot to hand pull them as it's a gloves and long sleeves job. So I borrowed an implement off @classic33 and tackled them that way.

Have had a quiet evening watching football and Deadliest Catch.

Now watching France v Iraq, and it's hosing it down over there in Philadelphia.

I caught the 2nd half and, yes, great fun to watch.

In comparison, Argentina v Austria was bloody turgid.

The bin man is Count Binface, who got 95 votes, the fox is Rob Pownall, who got 18. Burnham got 24,927. We have a tradition of rather eccentric candidatures.

I love that you folks can bring a sense of humour to politics. Humour has long since left the building , in my case.

Half time. I suppose I'd better do the washing up.

I had shakshuka on toast for supper, btw.

Well I hope you've put no nicks or dents in the blade, and you clean and oil the blade whilst it's in storage!

love the sound of steady rain. I might just take a nap

Washing up done and cat fed. She asked for some wet food.

I did sharpen it nicely. Went through thumb-thick nettle stems like a hot knife through butter.
