Hello world. Breezy and wet. I mean, come on, it's July! In fact it's July 6th which means I've reached the once unimaginable age of 68!

The New York Times games website is down. This is not acceptable. The NYT has a nice selection of puzzles I enjoy with morning coffee............counter, counter, counter......

Happy birthday young man

Cool but little breeze here.
I was supposed to be taking MrsD for a mammogram plus draw fluid from where her op was.
Fortunately she has cried off. It was a 0930 appointment and 15 miles away which meant fighting through rush hour traffic. I have told her to rebook for a more sensible time ie 1030.
Instead I will nip to Tesco for a few bits.

Yes but IKEA cabinets fall apart if........oh, forget that.

Morning all

Hitching up and towing back home in a couple of hours time. Not very far, but it's a bit of a tortuous route through the middle of Exmoor with a caravan in tow.
I quite enjoy these short 4 night breaks. Long enough to be worthwhile taking the van, but short enough so that there's not mountains of work to do when we get back.

@PaulSB Happy birthday

Far too late for this then.

Or will it be all round to @Dave7's as he has the cakes!

But only when the screws come loose.

Back from a pleasant 5 miles. It's overcast and breezy but still quite warm.

The GPS accuracy amazes me these days. You can see where I've put the neighbour's bins out!

Something to turn off should you go for a walk on the nightshift, visiting houses.

Salut tout le monde.
Glad to report that Mrs G is making good progress: she told me off this morning for not cleaning the house to her standards.
Hoping to go for a short ride late afternoon as the weather is brightening up.

I’ve just got the new Garmin 255, I went for a walk and there are a couple of cut throughs between houses. For the first one I snaked my way along between the fences, for the second one I walked straight down the centre line. When I looked at the tracks they were spot on, and that’s without the highest accuracy setting. Pretty impressive stuff for a wris based device.

Good news indeed, if Mrs G is moaning at you then she’s surely on the mend 🤞
