Morning. I was up at 4.30 and out the door at 5 for a walk/jog as we are supposed to be getting rain soon.

Hoovering will soon be done so if you hear a Freddie Mercury song drifting through an open window, it could be me wanting to break free 🕺

Looks like my broker cashed my syndicate out of SpaceX at the right time. That'll be a nice 40% profit for me, less Rachel Thieves cut.

Morning

Right we're off

Off to strange lands where people wake up early and go for walks before decent people are awake

Yes - Scotland her we come

will be on a boat mostly out of phone signal range for the next 2 weeks
hopefully we will get as far as St Kilda - but only if the weatheris OK as the boat is quite tiny


anyway - probably not see you for nearly 2 weeks!!

Oh and this means that we will be missing the World Cup

but really not that bothered

we had the match on last night but I was also watching a YouTube things about them fixing the canal in Whitchurch
and my wife was watching something else


now if Liverpool were in it...........

They are not.
Some vegetarians do eat eggs

My daughter is a "sort of**" veggie and will eat free range eggs.
**by sort of, its for 'ethical' reasons so she will eat chicken if she knows where its raised. Same with fish ie she won't eat farm raised salmon.
Its beyond me.......put it on my plate and I will eat it.

Good morning all.
A cloudy day in prospect, but quite warm and humid.
A walk with the mutt soon and then the washing machine will be doing its thing, the laundry basket is bulging.
I should be able to get out on the bike for a while, got to keep the legs working.
Our son is calling in this afternoon, he has entered a squash tournament, but wants feeding first, so I will cook a mushroom stroganoff, quick, easy and relatively cheap.
My first mug of tea is going down a treat.
Enjoy your day everyone.

I like mushrooms and eg in an omelette I will put lots of them in but mushroom stroganoff sounds a bit too mushroomy to me.

I'm up again, very cloudy and only 19c
