Still no Mo ??...hope all is well.
Been to Aldi. My car goes in the garage which has a remote up and over door. So, it was only when I got out of the car at Aldi I realised just how bitter cold it is.....a shock to the system

Might be trying her sledge out.

Sorry, thought I had posted first thing but I hadn't

I was up and out the door before 7 for a 6.8 mile walk. Cold but lovely so enjoyed it apart from the sore back which isn't for shifting. Just got my new supplement delivered just now so I've already popped the first 2. You never know, they might help.

Good morning folks,
Back home after our Covid extended stay in Edinburgh. Mrs Tenkaykev continues to improve, there's just the faintest of lines on the LFT. Slept really well last night, surprising how a long journey can be so tiring, even though we were sitting down for the majority of the time.
There's a northerly wind blowing so it felt chilly when I put the green bin out. We're planning on going for a walk / jog just to get some fresh air.
I think there must have been some behind the scenes tweaks to the way my Garmin watch works. I've been really impressed with the " body battery " function which uses heart rate variability and a few other metrics to suggest activity levels for the day. I usually look at it retrospectively and it has been pretty accurate in forecasting periods where I've subsequently felt more tired than usual. A couple of days ago a message popped up on my watch suggesting that I take it easy that day as I had had poor sleep and quite high stress during the night.
Time for some more coffee ☕️
Have a peaceful day folks👍

I enjoy all the stats. I didn't quite get a total recharge last night, but not too bad.

I was thinking more about the "bunnies".

Well the bunnies will be happy of course because they are alive

Can I swop your bunnies for a mouse, I'll throw in the traps as well

Morning another visitor last night took the bait, but never got caught, something must be wrong with the trap, I'll check it out.

Ask Mo for a loan of Molly, she would solve your problem

No thanks we have our own nice (outside 99.9 percent of the time) and traps. I will keep the bunnies thank you

It's freezing out 5c, but with the wind it feels colder

same over here , beautiful blue sky but extremely cold outdoors , even the daffodils are shivering. thought i was finished with the wood burning stove fire till autumn but maybe not. the little dog is sitting inside the front room in a little ray of sunlight. my metatarsal fracture feels ok now and i can walk well on it , trying to work up the nerve to try a cycle , its been 8 months since i was on a bike and its really depressing me to look at the bike just leaning there gathering dust

Caravan washed - it's blimmin' cold out there.
Everything checked and double checked (almost certainly forgotten something).
Clothes all packed.
Going to hitch the car up after lunch and check all of the lights. I'll leave it hitched up overnight, so we can make a quick getaway tomorrow morning.
Having a spot of lunch now. Phew! It's hard work this caravanning lark - I'll be glad of a holiday!

A three kilometres walk / gentle jog with Mrs Tenkaykev. She’s feeling a bit “ wobbly “ so taking it easy for the rest of the day. I felt a twinge in my lower calf so need to take it easy too.
Enjoying a bowl of soup with a cheese and chutney sandwich “ Gheetas premium mango chutney “ is excellent 👍

“ Gheetas premium mango chutney “ is excellent 👍

No H in it but it is the absolute dogs nards - knocks Sharwoods and Pateks straight out of the ballpark.

Always got a jar in the fridge. Yum!

There are lots of bunnies in the field, all chasing each other around.

It's nice and sunny here at the moment. Quite windy and cold, but the earlier snow flurries and sleet have gone.
A lot of the trees out in the street did have blossom on them after last weeks warm weather, but this has all dropped on the ground now.
