Final packing ready to go to Stuttgart this afternoon, deliver the bike I've been working on and pick up my Brompton, which has so far spent most of it's time since I bought it living 200km away...

Good morning. I am almost up.

Will you be riding the Brommie back? 🤔

Kettle boiling
Lovely morning outside blue skies with a thin mist

That sounds like what I was warned about doing at school, when it were my turn to bat.
Protective equipment worn by all near the wicket, if I were batting.

Doubt the likes of Binks or Close would have given it a thought.

First cuppa going down well

Tea has been drinked. A cake is in the oven. It has to be baked now as I'm working today (Booooo) and friends are coming over in the morning to help eat it 🍰

Morning.
It is grey here but dry.
My back is still playing up. I didn't do much yesterday and I think I will be doing the same today .

Definitely rained last night; puddle on the garden table cover for the first time for some days.

The Royal Mail app tells you the CO2 emissions of a parcels journey. It would be less if parcels from South to North Yorkshire did not go via the North West superhub.

Nice morning here for a change.

I have only four hours of enslavement to endure this morning before I am free for the weekend.

When I worked (I say, worked..) for RM, the empty leg journey's were legendary!
Empty trailer from South Mids to Yorkshire even though they were on strike there just in case they'd finished there strike and had anything to bring back, which they didn't because they'd been on strike..

Great fuel consumption, though! 😂

Dry but cold this morning.
Three wimmen just gone past. One in front dressed in sleeveless top displaying tattoo from wrist to elbow and carrying nothing. Two rather plump ones behind in full jackets with backpacks and looking miserable. All brisk walking and I get the impression the front one is in charge and two conscripts on punishment behind.
FB has not been very interesting these days. Touroid holiday snaps and how wonderful it has all been. Who cares apart from themselves?
This morning great concern as a seagull has been seen with a cable tie on it's leg. OMG what will we do ?

Good morning...



Unfortunately. I managed -just- not to fall asleep.

You could do that almost anywhere though.
