I think I'll have a little snooze..
Back later 👋

I used to occasionally have an afternoon snooze but I just don’t get tired during the day. Bad enough trying to get much more than a few hours at night. I will have another little walk I think.

Interesting, or possibly not, interaction at the pharmacy today.
Stopped off on the way home to pick up my pills.
Gave date of birth, name etc as requested.

Rummage rummage rummage.. Wait a minute, please..

19 minutes later.. Mrs R?
No, but I can be if you want.. 🤷‍♂️

Long story short, they were dispensing MrsPete's medication to me.
Happily, it pleased MrsPete as she was expecting to have to go on Tuesday to collect it.
Eventually, after reminding them of my & her dates of birth, I got my pills, too.

Bit slipshod, I think! Imagine if I was a gormless or bewildered person and just assumed that they were for me and took them!

Well ended up as a 90km ride in the end was tempted to make it 100 but by about 80k I was cooked so rolled home for the last 10k; actually took a while to get going and it wasn't until I was into Suffolk that I started to feel ok and had the occasional stop (mostly near churches) to get some shade and snack.Also stopped at a Co-Op on the way back for extra water and an ice cream.
Not many cyclists about but there was a few Harleys mooching about and coming back there was two Ferraris zooming around.

Couple of pics ;
