Son sent us a sign of life! txt'd "I'm alive & driving out of the woods", after being out of reach, in the Maine North Woods, for nearly a week, canoe camping

 

[Reynard]

Greengage jam made. It's delicious - I've just had the pan scrapings on a slice of bread & butter.

Knackered though, as I've been on my feet for much of the day. Except for driving to Littleport to put in the parental's prescription while the fruit for the jam was cooking.

Listened to Crystal Palace v Arsenal.

Homemade pizza for supper, along with a side of cheesy garlic butter crumpets.

Madam Lexi is playing with a valerian toy.

While out & about today, I think I found @Reynard 's spare tea mug

... and my spare cat...

That always makes me smile every time I cycle / drive past.

 

[Reynard]

"Bent Bargains", some places still do them.

AKA the "Green Bins" in Tesco, although here they're currently on a proper shelf next to the cat food.

Useful for squashed packs of tea and breakfast cereal, and dented cans of beans, pulses and tomatoes. Best buy recently was a huge box of Bonios - my friend's doggos are very happy

Off to bed go I.

Nunnight one and all xxx

 

[tom73]

Off out with the dog, not even light outside yet darkest morning yet. Soon be head torch time ☹️

Just about to set off for a ride

 

[Andy in Germany]

Slightly later start than usual today; theoretically I have a late shift but I need to keep an eye on one of my clients: If I'm not there, they tend to wander off and drink coffee all morning.

The rainy season continues.

 

[PeteXXX]

I'm up & (not) ready for my classroom visit in Rugby...
It's going to be a long day 😔

 

[biggs682]

Back now and first cuppa is ready to go

 

[Illaveago]

Tube of Smarties! I could get them by the 1/2lb bag for less than a tube of Smarties.

Ah! But you won't have the coloured plastic top to put between your spokes !

 

[Illaveago]

I doubt it was a massive generator of revenue, to be fair, but yeah, my parents shouldn't have had to buy them for me and my siblings. Sadly, the world doesn't work like that.

They should have collected all of the blue Smarties and sold them separately as placebos for another drug !

 

[biggs682]

First cuppa went down well
Blue sky with some white fluffy clouds
Another nice day ahead hopefully

Sounds like the life well lived @Reynard 😎
