On a lighter note, winter is definitely on the way, my Good Lady has just asked me to get her a pair of socks.

I'm sorry to ask, but did they ever find the plane?

No 😔
Had a service for him some time later….a couple of hundred people, from all walks of life. He was a proper character, everyone who met him loved him.

My chicken and veg curry was delicious.
There is at least two portions left to go in the freezer.

What 'type' of curry was it ??

A good one by the sound of it.

Morning. Got myself out for a spin. 33 miles and every one of them felt like hard work. It'll probably take the legs about 3 days to recover now. On a brighter note I found a decent Topeak multitool lying on the road half a mile before home.

These dark mornings are no good for me......it was 0820 when I awoke this morning .

Serious this ie no joke coming.
Someone we know committed suicide in the most dreadful manner a week ago.
He had been suffering mental health problems for some time.
His wife was driving him back from hospital when, going over a motorway bridge, he got out of the car, ran to the edge and jumped over the parapet.
Poor girl had to sit there and watch......now she has to live with it

Dear God. What a horrible way to go, and his poor wife had to see that.

I suppose it's lunchtime. Not sure what I fancy. I have eggs so maybe a fried egg sarnie.

Yes. I have known her (and him) for many years.......very sad

Mr WD has a bad back. I just went into town to get some gel for his back. Town was packed and traffic lights on either side of road works were out. Both were our red, so lots of angry drivers

No idea what we are having to eat today.

What 'type' of curry was it ??

Chicken.

With, Rogan Josh curry paste, onions, garlic, coconut milk, a tin of tomatoes, chick peas, carrots, peas and potatoes.
At the end I add some mango chutney and some natural yogurt.

Dear God, that doesn't bear thinking about.
