Good morning all
It looks like it's going to be a bit of a mixed bag weatherwise today, some sunshine and some showers.
Another day of exercises, and armchair cycling. I'll be watching the men's Paris-Roubaix🚴‍♂️
Our Daughter and MrsP are going to see some Tulip fields near to St.Albans then she is coming back for tea, so I'm going to cook a fish pie, I have various fish (salmon, smoked Haddock, pollock and prawns) in the freezer.
Enjoy your day everyone.

Good morning all.
As Paulus says, a mixed bag weather-wise. 9° at the moment and won't get much warmer, with rain due at noon.
I've said this before, I enjoy all the fish mentioned above but not in a pie. That is just too 'fishy' (if that makes sense).

Good morning, on my second coffee of the day. Pleased to have arranged to have new fence panels plus some remedial work and a new gravel board sorted out. Mrs Tkk's shed will be going too. 29th anniversary today and we're off for lunch at the Lifeboat college. 🍽️

Cooooeeee. 7 deg here. Its a bit damp on the ground and that's it for the moment. It looks like we could get a bit more rain. Let's hope so.

Stay safe peeps

Well what a todo! I was browsing the hedgehog cameras footage a few minutes ago and it appears that the older hedgehog has been evicted from its house. It makes regular trips to the feeding station and around the local gardens over the course of the night, but returning just after 6:00 this morning seemed reluctant to enter the hoghouse. The next clip showed a younger more vigorous hedgehog dash out of the hedgehog house and start pushing the older one away. A few minutes later the camera on the second hoghouse shows the usurped hedgehog heading for the entrance🦔🦔

MrsP is the same with real sausages from a butcher or farm shop. They are too meaty🤔

Morning. I was out the door early and headed up to the foot of Loch Earn to see the Mirror Man. That’s what some people call him, although the name given by the artist is Still.

Another photographer down at the water edge with a proper camera when I stopped.

26 miles done and it felt more than enough these days.

Morning all

Bit of workshop stuff this morning.
We're going to the Minehead Motorcycles meet at the White Horse at 3pm, so we're missing our regular Sunday lunch; however, there's a bbq on at the event.

It looks like it's getting a not brighter here at the moment.

Looks like it didn't rain last night - the ground is dry

Met Office says it will rain a bit on and off today
but looking at the weather radar I reckon there is very little about and it will miss us

not sure if this means I should water the plants - I will seek advise from higher authorities!

Morning folks sunny n breezy here, will rest the old legs today and potter in the garden. Saw my first osprey of the year yesterday at Loch Brora and lots of sand martins. Have been buying various flowers to add some colour, i do like begamot and have grown 'cambridge scarlet' but couldnt resist this purple variety- https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/13500619...-8690-fa736bec4c77|iid:1|vlpname:vlp_homepage
