It's been a cool and largely grey day here chez Casa Reynard, with some rain early doors.
Slept like a log after yesterday's trip to Alresford. Good journeys in both directions save some heavy traffic on the M25 near Heathrow on the outward leg due to a convoy of abnormal loads taking up two of the four lanes, and two lots of roadworks (M3 J4 and A10) on the return leg. Stopped at Winnall on the way home to tank up the car - petrol 2p a litre cheaper than in this corner of Cambs. The usual laughs to be had in the petrol station kiosk with the inevitable "you're not from around here" moment when I went to pay for my fuel. My East Anglian drawl must sound right odd to Hampshire ears.
Visited Paul's grave, had a very nice walk despite the drizzle and fading light, and encountered the same two winos on the exact same bench as on my last trip down. I think they were smoking weed judging by the smell...
Have had a quiet day today. Done some databasing and set some rat traps. Managed to twang my hand in one of the traps - that'll learn me to try and bait the thing while the mechanism is cocked.
Spent the evening listening to the football on the radio. Arsenal have just beaten Nottingham Forest.
but then having walked to Asda at lunchtime I looked at my desk- aargh! No teabags, a visit to the nearest Sainsbury's Local followed.
