re Bassenthwaite and Derwent Water....... possibly one has to know the area to fully appreciate how much water this involves.......quite unreal.
I was just thinking how bad that sounds! (I have had a couple of holidays in Keswick.)
I finished the first series of
The Killing last night. It is scary how little of it I remembered from watching it when it was first shown here.
My pal and I only got 5 minutes into episode 3 of
Bosch. Both of us were struggling with the combination of accents and sound quality so we were not keeping up with what was going on. I am going to watch it solo on headphones instead so I can have it louder without annoying the neighbours. (It occurred to me later that I have been watching lots of foreign dramas with subtitles - maybe I should start putting them on when I can't make out dialogue in English!

)
I was having a whinge last night about how unfit I feel. My friend laughed and said that I do hundred mile bike rides that would half-kill her or her other friends. I pointed out that it was apples and oranges - she was comparing me to unfit non-cyclists, whereas I was comparing myself to fit cyclists!
A wet morning here but the forecast suggests that it will dry up mid-afternoon. I will probably nip out and do my 6 km loop on the way to the shops.
