*It's frozen, why did you think it were blue?Been for a walk in the17c, before that changed the bedding and put that in the machine, turned said mattress over, I think I need a new one as it was making a funny noise when I turn over and I do a lot of that during the night as I can't sleep.
I've got Haddock for lunch 🐟 yes I know it's a blue fish, but I couldn't find anything else*

Did you remember to get milk while you were out? We're going to be a bit short for a brew.Off for a short walk.
Feel more like going back to bed tbh.
The auntie needs some fresh clothes so I have shoved them in a rucksack and off I go. Only 2ish miles.
DO NOT let me forget to pick up the fresh milk.

Nice run in sunshine but still a strong wind. Very little traffic at lunchtime but began to pick up later. Got overtaken by a low loader with escort carrying an enormous earth moving machine of some kind.On a single track road with lots of bends he was going like the clappers and would certainly not be called a slow loader. Must have been running late or something and certainly a local driver.
Due to the constant wind I tried lowering the trike seat back to give less wind resistance. Seems ok but will have to give it a longer trial before deciding whether to keep this angle or not.
There are more stranger cars and people appearing. This annoys me as we are level 3 so they must be coming from areas designated higher. I am stuck here not getting off to do the things I want but they have no qualms about breaking any rules and wandering around here.

Well, it would only take a couple of minutes with electric clippers to get that lot off! Or for that matter, to trim it if you decided to keep it. The barber I went to in Hebden Bridge retired so I bought myself some clippers and have been cutting my own hair ever since. I know it doesn't look perfect but it is good enough for me. (This is where you tell me that my hair looked really strange every time you met me!
)Indeed, and especially in winter... I have a nearly bald spot at the back and my hair is receding and thinning elsewhere It feels bloody chilly in a cold wind. In fact, I even wear a buff on my head indoors in the winter!

I'm thinking about it, I'm not sure I trust myself with a set of clippers.

If you are shaving it off, no problem. Obviously, trimming is a bit more subtle...I'm thinking about it, I'm not sure I trust myself with a set of clippers.

I'm thinking about it, I'm not sure I trust myself with a set of clippers.
As Mrs @BoldonLad says, when wielding the shears on my hair, "it will grow again". This utterance is usually heard shortly after a cry of "oh sh*t" (which usually means she has attached the wrong, or no guard on the shears).
Needless to say, Mrs @BoldonLad will not allow me near her hair with shears or scissors
