Just put bath mats and towels in.
Dishes done..... just need drying.

Fortunately, Mrs Boldonlad does not come on here, but, just in case she is watching over my shoulder, would you guys please stop talking about doing housework type things, it might give Mrs @BoldonLad ideas, and wreck my carefully planned leisure time
We managed our longest cycle ride so far, of 2021, a 20 mile circuit around the coast. Bright sunny day, 11C, but, with a cold and brisk wind blowing.

Turned out to be a nice day so far and got out for some exercise on the trike.
Still windy and temperature about 7C but did not feel as cold as it has been recently. Wind is more westerly now which does not feel as cold. My fingers were still a bit cold but moved to mid season trousers and will need to start reducing the body layers soon.
More cars parked around than I have seen before but only one person out on foot visible. The others may have been out at the lochside tho' I don't think the fishing season has started yet.
My gardening fanatic neighbour is out weeding now in another garden which borders on to mine. My border is a bit of a mess but needs to get some old growth cut back with the shears. The other side is also beginning to get a bit weedy but the bluebells should cover that up soon I hope. The grass is about 80% moss by the looks of it but I cannot be bothered doing anything about that.
I may just get a contractor to come in and remove the lot and replace with gravel. Unfortunately there is a steep slope which is rock not far under the surface so that will be a problem.

Had my jab yesterday - no problems so far and it's pretty much 24 hours ago now.
I can feel where the needle went in - but no pain or other symptoms
