Good morning from a 4th floor hotel room in partly cloudy Nottingham. Things were a bit fuzzy earlier (thanks to last night's 🍺) but after a strong coffee and a shower I'm feeling much more normal - whatever that is!

Heading into town for a Spoons breakfast shortly then train home.

Busy old morning early morning call into town. Then back in time for the charity shop collecting loads of stuff from a number of clear outs.
Only to find they called Mrs 73 early so it was gone when I got back. Just need to wait now till we get a call to pick up our new car. Hopefully it will be early afternoon.

Second cuppa went down well
One of our neighbours is doing something to a barbecue in his front garden perhaps we are having a street party and we have not been invited

The birds are polishing off the suet balls far too quickly, five so far consumed along with one of the mealworm cakes. Did think a squirrel may have been partly responsible yesterday but have tied the suet ball holder so it cannot fall today and its half full.

It's currently a nice sunny day here chez Casa Reynard, and surprisingly warm, but there are showers lurking.

Did not sleep well (weird dreams), but had a lovely morning walking local trails with a friend and her dogs. We managed to escape the rain after that first initial shower, and it was lovely to be out. I stopped off at the book exchange thingy in the village on the way home, and picked up a lovely Gary Rhodes cook book and two novels that I think the parental unit will enjoy. I will probably read those too.

I have to finish clearing up the shopping this afternoon, shove things in the freezer etc, and put all the pastries in tupperwares and the like. Plus I need to move four large sacks of compost out of the car and into the garage. My four salad tomato plants are now big enough to go into the planters, while the two cherry and two beefsteak plants still need another week or so. They are all starting to flower however...

That's good, because the Bimble Boos love the flowers.

It is almost time for luncheon.

A black Labrador/Pug mix is watching me.
Intently.
Something about food.

You do realise that photos are compulsory!

Probably the most Off the Wall children's programme out there..
Daughter, then granddaughter, loved watching it... 😎

Hell, *I* still love watching it, even if some of the perspectives mess with my head...

Makka Pakka, Iggle Piggle, the Tomliboos and Upsy Daisy...

There's a surprise - within 10 minutes of getting to Ipswich station, the first rain shower of the day hits. When I finally get home I'll have to go out again as food is needed for the next couple of days

Extra-strong pot, probably Maybe with an added dose of LSD... ITNG is definitely a bit trippy at times LOL.

It had an adult attraction almost akin to the Magic Roundabout.
