Gave the car a run over to visit dad’s old neighbours. Nice to see them as they are a lovely couple and looked out for dad when he was alive. Sadly lost Lexi, their black lab. She wasn’t great on my last visit. However, I am now broody as they just brought home a new yellow lab bitch puppy on Thursday so I have had puppy cuddles

I've been for a bimble this morning, my Brinklow loop and rode 26 miles. Not a nice morning for cycling, very foggy first thing, I wasn't out till half nine and abandoned my original idea to ride over to Hatton, once out and pedalling it was misty for the first part of the ride then murky and dark for the rest of it, It was cold as well, I had cold feet by the time I got home, I shall have to dig out my overshoes for my next ride, it was also a bit iffy under foot, I rode down the hill in Witheybrook lane with care as it was half an inch deep in leaf mulch and mud, but it usually is this time of year so I was expecting it.

- Somewhere wet & hilly in NW England.
Both of us have been clothes shopping this morning, then a joint session in the gym under the house.
Mrs SD has since been watching Masterchef on iPlayer and I've been watching some mad MTB downhill races courtesy of Red Bull on YT.
Cooking a curry together this evening and then off to bed relatively early for us with a bottle of plonk. Etc.

I think I will have to start using mine soon too. It has been so mild this autumn that my toes have only got cold once, but I'm sure that bitter rides are only a few days away now!

I did my lumpy 6 km ride to get my Metro, read the paper, then had a quick tidy up before making my coffee and settling down to do the crosswords. But first I went out to the recycling bag to retrieve the paper, having recycled it BEFORE doing its crosswords!

Generally. I like to try to support a struggling industry that's part of our culture and social history........
This should keep me going for the rest of the day.
