Just 4 degrees at the moment! Autumn has definitely arrived.

Another good night of telly to come with the 4 parter Manhunt on Monday to Thursday plus Silent Witness which I’ll need to watch on catch up along with Vigil as I watched Endeavour last night.

Off for a walk after coffee. Jacket required this morning.

I have risen!

A Q day planned, my first on my own with Bruce, who is very quickly learning the household routine. A friend of mine is popping in AM to see Bruce, but thats all I have planned.

Good morning all fellow retirees.
A bit of a cloudy start to the day here.
I've just heard onthe radio that my energy supplier, Bulb, the 6th largest, is going bust unless it can get a bailout from the government.
I wonder who I'll be with next month, and at what price?
What with prices going through the roof, CO2 shortages , labour shortages and all the other problems this country has, things do not look rosie for Boris and his merry band of followers.

Good morning all, bright and sunny here, and not as cold as forecast, currently 10.7°.
Just the shopping to do today.

Stay safe peeps

I’m not a football person but this story of Spurs being beaten by an adhoc combo of two Inverness teams is quite fascinating.
When Spurs were humbled in the Highlands https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-58542543

Caledonian and Thistle were not even the best sides in Inverness that season

Inverness isn’t very big even now. Just how many teams did they have in 1921 ?

Hello people. Still in the Lakes and looks like it will be a beautiful day. Slept like the dead last night - 8.5 hours straight through.

Driving home in an hour or so. When I get back it's unload the bike, kit in the washing machine and then leave for Yorkshire. We're going to Richmond with friends for a walking holiday........ apparently we're stopping for a walk on the way over. I'll let you know how that goes

Its just come up on my memories on facebook, its been 10 years since we got back from our holiday in New York, I posted
"Sat here knackered and jet lagged, flew in from New York's JFK airport early this morning after an overnight flight and got home dinner time, great holiday but it will be even better when I've caught up with the time zones". I can't believe its been that long since that holiday.

Good morning all. Two tons of gravel is being delivered this morning so I will be shifting it from the front of the house to the back with my wife supplying the coffee and supervising.
No ride today obviously but did manage to go out for a short one yesterday. At least it is not raining but blue sky.
I am expecting back ache and tired legs later on today.

Not quite yet Mo, one more day of official summer and Autumn will start properly on Wednesday.
