That was a windy walk. At least it’s milder. There must have been a fair bit of rain as the river was high.
I intend having a lazy day and will probably watch some Winter Olympics and rugby while drinking lots of cuppas.

Bonjour. Glad I had a ride yesterday as it is blowing a gale today. Big monthly shop this morning and then rugby this afternoon.

Sadly, I anticipate Scotland receiving a thrashing from Wales. I remember last year they started well against England and weren’t as good against Wales and I think the Welsh team are possibly even better than they were last year.Bonjour.

Telepathy?Weird!
I've had the tune 'I'll Do Anything' from Oliver! as an ear worm this morning. Not mentioned it to MrsD or heard it on the radio this morning.
5 minutes ago, MrsD suddenly burst out singing it.
How does that happen?

I still need another hour of sleep but SWNNLBO popped in to say goodbye and J have not got back to sleep. When she leaves REALLY early (say 7 am) she just goes quietly and I snooze on until my alarm wakes me.
Amazon are delivering Dark Sacred Night later today. It is the first novel in which Connelly's Bosch and Ballard characters team up.
I am slowly getting back into reading again. I have nearly finished Stephen King's book On Writing. In it he describes the pleasure he gets from seeing a good reaction from his wife to an early draft of his next new novel. I can imagine that feeling...
I never felt that I have a serious novel in me, but reading a few paragraphs of the comic novel that my pal was laughing at yesterday made me wonder if I should have a go at a funny one. She often laughs at my funnier comments, and my non-serious tales on CycleChat often get a good response too.
I have 'The bikes that rarely get ridden'. (I keep them close to 'The guitars that rarely get played'.) When I have finished writing 'The puzzle game that rarely gets downloaded', perhaps I should get to work on 'The book that rarely gets read'? I have oodles of free time now I am an official pensioner and aloathsome lonesome singleton!

It's probably the 5G microchips in the Covid vaccine accidentally tuning in to SOTS with Tony Blackburn.😉Weird!

Telepathic radio, it'll never catch on.
That's the most plausible explanation.
