Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
I forced Mr WD out of bed. It's quite misty here again, but I.am off to do my shopping. I'm going out now and I may be some time.

Morning. Blustery and drizzly walk done but reasonably mild.
I used to make the odd very poor roll up for some of the women in segregation that weren't allowed their own stuff in the cell.
There was a post on Facebook asking who people thought were bands that deserved more recognition and it suddenly dawned on me that I quite liked Nazareth in my younger days so found an album on Prime and listening to it just now.

Good morning from a local vaccination centre. A pop up organised on Sunday. Very busy with queues out the door to register then back outside to queue again for the jab. Appointments only with walk-ins being turned away as there are so many appointments. Quite a few walk-ins. Had to wait 40 minutes.
Sounds like good news to me to see so many people going for it. Lots of chat and joking.

Morning folks 
drizzly and breezy here, not a riding day. Ive been ordering up spares i might need in case my elderly laptop expires ie tyres, brake cables, and the like. A trigger shifter and cable was only 14 squids so got one of those to.....of course it will be the part i dont have which'll break

From my Facebook page this morning.
"It's a boy!"
Tam shouted tears rolling down his face...
"I don't believe it!"
"A boy!"
It was at that moment he decided never to visit Thailand ever again....

I am going to pop round to Boots and try to book a flu jab. It might be easier than trying to get through on the phone to reception at the local health centre. Will shop at Lidl and pick up a Metro on the same outing.
That would probably be enough time out of the house for today. I have things to catch up on after my family visit at the weekend.
My younger sister was complaining at the cost of fuel on Saturday. She had spent nearly £100 to get from the Exeter area to Coventry and back. I was able to get to Exeter and back on the train from Todmorden for less than that a couple of months ago - with the help of my Senior railcard. That is about 50% further. Mind you, there were 2 people in the car. Rail travel can be cheaper than driving if only a driver is in the car. Once passengers are added, maybe not!
