I was up at 0515......crazy but I was awake and can't just lie in bed.
1st job was to clear the carnage from yesterdays meatballs in sauce (with spaghetti).
How can one person make so much mess with one meal :wacko:. (I need a pot washer).
All done now, just the frying pan splash cover to do.
As soon as its light I have blue and green bins to put out plus empty the general kitchen rubbish.
I may well go back to bed for an hour.

Morning all :hello:

Weather's supposed to be picking up from today.
Off down to the caravan this morning, to restock it, replace the bedding and give it a good clean.
We're off next Monday for a couple of weeks - Malverns, Glastonbury and Exmoor.
Been a slow year for us; only done 75 nights away so far.

Why do I lie in bed at silly o’clock not able to sleep but once I get up and dressed and sit down for a browse and coffee feel like going back to bed! :laugh:
That is the time to go back to bed for a sleep. I try to do it when this happens and it usually works.

Good morning. It's a glorious Lancashire autumn morning. Sunny and still.

There's a mountain of ironing for later. Yesterday I washed two favourite pairs of jeans, black and dark blue, along with a new beige jumper. This jumper shed a lot of fibres........😭

Sunday 🚴❌ failed
Monday🚴❌ failed
Wednesday 🚴🤞

Heading to Lytham St Anne's today. Where else do pensioners go? We don't though sit on a bench looking at the sea with our coffee.

Got a text from the surgery yesterday at 6.00pm. Flu jabs have arrived. Straight on to the booking system and I'm going at 19.27 tonight. 👌👌

Must get on it's porridge time

Busy busy busy .
Did all the dishes, pots and pans. All now dried and away.
Sorted all 3 bins out** and put them out for tomorrows collection.
Moved all the planters/pots into the side garden.
Restocked the bird feeders.

Now sat listening to Oasis cd (whats the story morning glory).
 
Right
Today the battery is coming back from being recelled so I have to wait in for it
at the moment the tracking system just says it is out for delivery - which is pretty useless without some idea of how big the lorry is and how many items are on it

hopefully it will grow some more information in a bit

after that I will test it and then take it out for a ride to check it out

Morning folks ^_^ Going for another 20miler today, it may take a while but would like to to join the ranks of the muscly hero's here who nonchalantly do 50m before they've had their corn flakes :laugh:
I had a electric bike whoosh by me yesterday on the A9 and he was shifting...reckon it was derestricted as it was really fast.
Its getting cold now and has me wondering what to wear and not be too hot or too cold...an old Hein Gerick motorcycle jacket will do for the time being as its quite light and waterproof. Going to need gloves soon as well, dont want to freeze my digits. ^_^
