Good evening. It was warm and humid most of the day but has clouded over and rained, just as well the garden needs it. So last night we got the emergency childcare request for today. We said yes despite Paul having a ride planned. Mrs P very kindly said I could still go, which I thought was above and beyond. My buddies played their part by agreeing and early start and a pacy, flat 60 miles that got me home by 1.50pm. This went down very well in our house. It was a very good ride with some really fast stuff when we felt like it. I got home to find #3SP had been a start and she continued to be so for the day. I did the ironing a prepared tea before I set off.......................this seemed a wise precaution!
