It's turned into muggy and damp afternoon the rains held off but with dark clouds around. Never too sure if it will hold off picking the right coat is a trade off. Too light and your going to get wet though too water proof and you boil. In the end went for my GORE‑TEX jacket and walked home carrying it.

Had a lovely luncheon of three slices of farmhouse loaf, one with hummus, one with polish sausage, one with honey, plus a banana, a flat peach and two

Just been chilling out watching the junior downhill MTB (not seen that before, blimey it's bonkers!) and listening to Southern Brave v Welsh Fire in the Hundred.

Tasha the cat had something very similar. As you say there was nothing you could have done.

Her ashes are buried at the the end of garden, where she liked to sit, and marked by a collection of large pebbles. Leo's ashes are under a white potentilla, as he was a white cat.

I got Poppy a nice beechwood casket.

Linda has a colleague at work who makes resin keepsakes from pets' ashes, so I'm thinking of getting something small made that I can add to the chain on which I wear a locket and a St Christopher.

Decorating at the PIL’s. They’ve been evicted to the SIL and we’re tag-teaming two rooms at once

Finished with paint. Now just need to get the furniture back in the right places - you know, like those little puzzles where there’s only space to move one item at a time…

edit: pub tonight 😃

Meant to go out on trike but then the rain started so went for a walk instead. The rain then stopped and it dried up.
Parked at the foot of the road leading up to where my wildlife pal lives and walked ( or rather staggered) up but turned back before I got that far. On the way back he appeared in his car heading home and I was invited for lunch.
Staggered back to my car and drove up to his house where we had brown trout from what is in effect his private loch near his house. Not really private but not easily accessible to the general public tho’ a short walk from where he lives.
Had a tour of his extensive garden and checking his potatoes I got a bag full which should last me for a month or two.

The sun has finally come out . It has been grey for most of the day and felt chilly when I went out for a ride with a friend this morning . We did 12 miles.

All suited and booted and about to head out for dinner.

Did a thirty mile ride after work to work up an appetite.

Time to feed the cat, and then it will be time to feed me.

MrsPete's sister, niece & a couple of kids visited this afternoon.
Me, being the cook in the house, set up to do a meal..
I put the electric (that I hate) oven on to warm up and went out into the garden to socialise. On returning to said oven, I opened the door to bung stuff in and thought 'that looks a bit strange' as the inner glass door had exploded showering the inside of the oven, and floor nearby with glass!
I've never known an oven door to KABOOM for no reason!

Popped into vets because Cassie had been overweight on previous visit so is on a diet. Down from 21kg to 20.5, so well on way to target. Might take 10g off her dry food allowance tho'.

I probably need to cut back too.

Washing machine is plumbed in.. It has WiFi, too!
MrsPete is going to get so peed off with me playing with that! 😂

You want to make sure it doesn't start ordering stuff on t'internet.

Good point! I'll make sure it doesn't clone my bank cards 👍
