Bonjour. Glad I had a ride yesterday as it is blowing a gale today. Big monthly shop this morning and then rugby this afternoon.
Allez les bleus ! :bravo:
Sadly, I anticipate Scotland receiving a thrashing from Wales. I remember last year they started well against England and weren’t as good against Wales and I think the Welsh team are possibly even better than they were last year.
 
Just been out to put some stuff in the bin

cold and very windy

looks like a day for staying inside!!!

I still need another hour of sleep but SWNNLBO popped in to say goodbye and J have not got back to sleep. When she leaves REALLY early (say 7 am) she just goes quietly and I snooze on until my alarm wakes me.

Amazon are delivering Dark Sacred Night later today. It is the first novel in which Connelly's Bosch and Ballard characters team up.

I am slowly getting back into reading again. I have nearly finished Stephen King's book On Writing. In it he describes the pleasure he gets from seeing a good reaction from his wife to an early draft of his next new novel. I can imagine that feeling...

I never felt that I have a serious novel in me, but reading a few paragraphs of the comic novel that my pal was laughing at yesterday made me wonder if I should have a go at a funny one. She often laughs at my funnier comments, and my non-serious tales on CycleChat often get a good response too.

I have 'The bikes that rarely get ridden'. (I keep them close to 'The guitars that rarely get played'.) When I have finished writing 'The puzzle game that rarely gets downloaded', perhaps I should get to work on 'The book that rarely gets read'? I have oodles of free time now I am an official pensioner and a loathsome lonesome singleton! :whistle:
