Just 12 miles for me today. A nice breeze which was very welcome. The main road was even emptier than normal. View attachment 419432 View attachment 419433

Seeing as it's my Birthday I treated myself to a new Brompton, just love 'em. Daughter came round yesterday and my son cooked the most amazing curry, a couple of cool beers it went down a teat

happy birthday and many more of them

Fitted a 2m ham radio set into the Shart car. Wanted to do a job that left no permanent holes or damage. Managed to mount the set on an existing dash moi ting bolt, and made a bracket to bolt the antenna to one of the boot lid mounts. Just need to make up a coax lead and I'm sorted. CQ CQ CQ.

I was practicing cloud-pruning on the yew hedges today, then being brutal with the laurel hedge at the top of the garden. I still have to tidy up.

I'm going dog/house sitting tomorrow

I'm feeling particularly noble today - not only did I carry out the tasks I mentioned earlier, I washed out the black wheelie bin, bleached it and washed it again.

Thankfully the water ran down next doors drive and not mine*
























*I did hose down afterwards

My day:Out by ten this morning to do a 45 mile ride in the scorching sun.
Then we decided instead of going abroad in september and putting the dogs in the kennels we would have a week in cornwall and take them with us.

Morning folks. We have some firewood arriving this afternoon, so i will be helping Mr WD move it into the log store and stack it. No idea what i am doing this morning though.

Walk the dog this morning. Got a slight headache, think I've let myself get a bit dehydrated. Going to give the Little Tikes car a wipe, and settle down with a book.

Don't they sell bleach in plastic bottles?
