Good morning from a bright and sunny Coventry.

I see aurora season has started. A local grabbed this last night. Bit too much cloud but you can definitely see it.

Suppose I’d better get a walk. I am struggling with motivation for anything at the moment. Hopefully just a blip and I’ll get back to doing a bit more soon.

Morning all

Weather's looking OK today.
Having a 'Dash & Splash' this morning - catching the steam train to the Quantock brewery - couple of pints and a Pasty.
Got to cut the lawns when I get back.
I see @Drago has put his house on the market.

Not in the 44% who wash them every three months then.

I avoid that problem by drying myself on the bed sheets.
Clever or what 🙂

Good morning all. A cool but nice start to the day.
Some paperwork filing still to do.
Might nip to the Spar shortly and then ???

It's warming up a bit here. My washing is on the line now.

I've got washing out as well, put it out about quarter to seven this morning, the noise from the M6 was very loud when I was putting it out, normally we don't hear it but occasionally we do but not that loud.

Yes, we occasionally get it from the M62 and when we do its very clear/loud.

Don't hear nothing here apart from the odd steam train chuffin' past.

Today's chilli crop.

It did. Just the riverside trail which is only about 4.5 miles but wanted back just incase Ovo got in touch to rearrange a meter engineer. Last time they phoned it was just after 9.

BIIIIG decision made.
My health seems determined not to improve and I am ,more or less, living in the flat.
Decision is for daughter, SiL and granddaughter to sell their house and move into my main house.
I's to dot and T's to cross nut it is, to use the phrase, doable.

Mrs Tenkaykev is off to Newcastle via London today. A bit of research into the Cholera outbreaks in the 1850's at the Library Archives should liven up her day tomorrow 🤔 Meanwhile, I'm off the leash for almost a week 😮😎🍺

Off-beat research topic, what's the story there if you don't mind me asking?
