It's a Sunday morning and I've been awake since 6am!
Once I'm awake I can't go back to sleep, so I'm sat here having a cuppa. Just me and the dog....
Think I may be developing (another) head cold. Great!

A head cold shouldn't stop you from cycling.
A chest cold should.
6 a.m.? I consider that to be sleeping in.

I consider early wakenings as extended opportunities for mischief and look forward to them. :hyper:

I've already prepped my Lister D engine for a starting attempt once I'm sure that my neighbours are awake. My bagpipes (Uilleanne variety) have had their brass fittings polished with Brasso. Had a fry up and I've played Camel's Snow Goose album in its entirety to compare the studio version with the live version that I saw last night in Harrogate.

Carpe diem! :wahhey:

Life's too short to whinge.

Exactly! If you have a head cold and you feel shite then why would you cycle. I will be back commuting tomorrow. ...
 

Puddles

Do I need to get the spray plaster out?
It is Sunday I have small people which means anything after 6am is a lie in and you have to go from sleeping to full throttle in 10 seconds or less to keep up with them!

If I want to get from A to B then it is pedal power hauling the smallest small person in the trailer we have already cycled to the local sunday market to pick up the ribs the butcher did not have last week but promised to get me for this week, in the dark windy rain accompanied by thunder and lightening twas rather invigorating see mother nature in all her furious autumn glory.

Now its time for quick tea and change for User76 as she decided it would be fun to lay in a muddy puddle, I didn't fancy it but she found it highly amusing, then we are cycling over the shop to get the parents paper and then going into them and seeing if Nana is still up for coming to the Brickworks today in this weather for the last steam up of the season and ghostly goings on.

There will always be weather, you will always feel, time always ticks, much as I dislike some of these happy happy joy joy pictures the one that says sometimes you have to talk to a 3 yer old to understand life again is very true.

User76 is 3 and finds fun everywhere, if it rains and thunders and blows a gale well go lay in a muddy puddle for fun :laugh:

Eat lots of garlic, take a couple of paracetamol, make chicken noodle soup with lots of chilli :biggrin:

Awww bless...I love little people....so much so, I had 5 of my own :biggrin: (now aged 27, 25, 19, 18 and 13)
I'm going to see my gorgeous grandsons on the 31st (2 1/2 and 1 1/2) and I will look forward to being awake at 6am while their mummy has a well deserved lie in!

Here's a little treat, Latimer, Furguson and Ward from Camel jamming. Peter Bardens died the year before.

Also great for a Sunday morning

Great to see an Analog desk and 2" tape again. Jamming like that is a special thing when all of you are on the same planet.

Last night's gig would have been even better if they had analogue synths instead of digital. They just didn't seem to have that 'fatness' of tone and body that analogue synths delivered.

Fast and careful!
The problem is work days I find it hard to drag my sorry behind out of bed,I do enjoy my job ,but a day off wake up at sparrows chorus,and that's it I'm up
