Good day. Mild, grey and breezy instead of the peeing down, windy and mild we were promised. I want some rain to settle my onions in. So virtually everything I had to do is done. Only two major tasks left, one of which can be kicked in the long grass. Much of what I have to do now is packing, preparation etc. I have lists, I like a good list. Debated if I needed a spreadsheet or not as I like a good spreadsheet even more than a list but decided a spreadsheet was a touch excessive

  • First task today is to make a list of the different lists I need to make
  • Second task today is to add things to each of the lists on my list of lists I need to make
  • When I've finished my lists I can gather stuff together and tick it off on the appropriate list
  • Make sense????
  • No, not really but it gives you all something to quietly smile about and shake your heads
This morning is about getting all my stuff together and this afternoon the six monthly meeting with my lad's care providers

Your OCD is showing. ^_^:laugh:

Bloody weather. My rain magnet is obviously still working. Rain started within seconds of going out and kept up for the entire 6 miles. My legs got cold and wet and my feet were almost squelching. Should have worn the goretex stuff but I wasn't expecting it to be as bad. Never mind, it was one of the increasingly rare days when my legs felt good so I still enjoyed it.

Definitely needing my porridge now.

Morning all . It’s a sunny start to the day here in Coventry .
When to see Dave Gorman at the arts centre last night ( my daughter bought the tickets for me as a sixtieth birthday present which is next month) he was on top form and it was terrific.
Tbh is was just great to be at any communal event too , we haven’t dont anything like that since well before covid.
Have a great day everyone .

I've seen Steve Hackett a few times in recent years. Always an excellent gig.
What's the theme of tonight's gig?

Foxtrot at 50 !!
The album is of that vintage....so I am naturally now playing it to remind myself what it sounds like :laugh:
Should be a good night!

Wandered round for a few bits of shopping. I spied this which looks nice. I think it will be tonight's tea. :laugh:

Bike was due into the LBS yesterday - it went in on Monday but he needed extra tools to take the motor housing off (Bosch - go figure)

Bike was due back yesterday but we ended up grandkid sitting so it had to be today


Hopefully he will be able to get access to the motor axle gubbins and stop it all creaking embarrassingly

Bought a new saddle as well - it says it is designed for women so maybe I can get my wife to have a go on 'her bike' that she has never rode since we got it out of the shop
Lets just say her sit bones are a bit further apart from mine!!!
