Good morning folks, down the club tonight, first Monday night out this year, it looks dark and damp out, I'll check the weather and see if I can get a bimble in this morning.

Good morning all fellow virus dodgers.
It's frosty outside at the moment. But due to be cloudy for the rest of the day with light rain or drizzle later.
MrsP downloaded an app yesterday called 'Too good to go'
It is an app that local bakers, stores use to put together bags of food at the end of each day instead of throwing the items away. Last night she got 2 packs of sandwiches, 2 packs of green veg, a quiche, a ready salad, a bread and butter pudding, 3 large of onions and a chocolate mousse, all for £4 from the M&S local at the top of the road. Might be worth a look as it helps to stop waste, and will save a lot of money. It's pot luck what you get in the bag from any of the participating shops.
Enjoy your day everyone

I'm suprised this stuff isn't going to the local food bank or similar.

Talking of apps. a lady I was walking with the other day told me about one called Yuka. You scan the barcodes of food or cosmetics you have bought and it gives health ratings and let’s you know about nasty additives. My ready meal chilli con carne from the Co-op actually came out as excellent so all ready meals aren’t bad

Exciting day today.
Off to Barnstaple to buy some new slippers.
Don't get much better than that!
.
I recall Barnstable as being flat when I did the SWCP, and I think it was in that area that I went into a small Post Office for a fizzy drink / chock bar, started to chat with the proprietor only to discover that for many years he had been the landlord of the Pub opposite my place of work back in Poole!Morning all

Good day folks. It's wet. No 2 son is still home and isolating, he seems to be perfectly well except for a cough early evening. This was my experience although my cough started around lunchtime. One of us needs to be home at all times which means I won't get out for a proper ride till Thursday.
Today I'll busy myself with cycle club admin, some household chores and searching out an accounts package for our local U3A. I'm due to be elected Treasurer next month and need to hit the ground running. I'm going to photograph the contents of my saddle bag.........................I bet you can hardly wait!!

Now then.....do I go for a cheapo pair from Shoe Zone or a very nice pair from Clarkes at 50 quid?Then we can all view them on the “Show us your slippers “ thread

OMG! 
That isn't strong enough...
OMG!!!!!
Someone I know just rang me. Clearly, without looking round first...
Friend: [Negative description of supervisor]
Supervisor: "Ah, there you are!"
I then hear my very flustered pal pretending that she hadn't said what she said and the supervisor pretending that she hadn't heard it!
I listened in horror for another 10 seconds until the call was cut off!

5 mile walk done. Still cold and miserable here. Roll on the milder weather. Think it will be late Tuesday into Wednesday before it appears.
