Thank you, I'm 70 today.

Happy Birthday, Dave. It's a pity that you didn't get your ride in.

I am heading home soon. I would like the drizzle to stop while I walk to the station, please!

Well yet again today we have that misty rain. I am getting a tad sick of it now.

Err you do live in mid wales you know, you should be used to it my now. That is the dominant weather pattern .
As a Shropshire boy , my Welsh grandad always said to me ‘ don’t go to mid wales , it rains ‘ .😂😂😂
And as he was born near Welshpool I have always followed his advice 😀😀

Yep. I keep getting told that but you can have too much of a good thing.

Little wander round for a few bits and pieces from the supermarket. It felt colder than it did earlier. Still a decent day though. I was good and didn't buy any rubbish.

I've made two fruit cakes one a round one and the other rectangle loaf shape as there was enough mixture left over from the round one, had the fruit soaking for three days in a large slug of brandy and a larger slug of sherry.

I've got the bimble penciled in for Thursday, no club Thursday so as long as the weather cooperates it should be OK.

Just got back from a bimble around the lanes. It is quite warm with next to no breeze. But it is really damp, not quite drizzle but still getting wet on the outside, and sweaty on the inside.

It looks like my Birthday Bimble is off, the forecast was for a dry day but now its raining and the carer isn't here yet.

Happy birthday anyway

Mr WD and I just had a senior moment. Took us 10 minutes to figure out how to remove the dust bag from inside the vacuum cleaner.
