Been for a walk, not cold but uniformly grey with intermittent dampness. Currently 16°. Will be watching the 40° nonsense from Barcelona this afternoon.

Down at a decent hour. Cleared the chores, then went out to do a spot of scything. A suitable amount of nettles were sent to hades.
A lovely luncheon of a chicken, pesto & mozzarella toastie, a packet of crisps, three chocolate biskits and a pot of tea.
F1 watched. Madam Boo was less bothered and slept through the whole thing. After, bid on some stock car programmes on the 'bay. Only secured two of the six, but the two that I did get were the ones I really wanted.

A quiet evening watching various bits on TV was had. Now watching Brazil v Norway and thinking about what to have for a late supper.

What you doing at Reynards place, and are you the reason for her spending the night hiding behind the armchair?That's an interesting point. I'm not sure if I ever watched a complete football match.
