Big order of cat food done a couple of days ago. Currently 'delayed' with Evri as the 'parcel' was bigger than they expected, Groan.

Washing out, large number of small items so it took ages to hang out and required use of the reserve peg bag; those I do not rate much and three binned as no longer functioning as a peg.
Postie delivered a pack of seven used coffee pod return bags of which one was quickly filled with remaining quantity of the box of suet balls. Has a resealable top.
Mixture of sun and cloud

Washing dropped off at the laundry near where I'm staying, did the tour of Moat Brae house and gardens, learned a few things about J.M. Barrie, who I must admit I hadn't even thought much about since I read Peter Pan as a youngster. It's a interesting place though and worth a visit. They also have an excellent café so have been able to top up my cake level!

Now going to visit Robert Burns, who I have much more interest in. I hope they don't have a café or I will provably eat even more cake...

It is sunny and hot here. I have been shuffling my bikes around. I've had to borrow a pair of wheels to get one rolling. It's wheels must be on another bike .

Reached Flamborough Head around 12, had lunch and am now en route to Selby ...

He'll either be Swiss or English and to a Scotsman they're the same this evening.

And no, I'm not watching it. Someone's dropped a pile of marked student work into my inbox to review and that is much more preferable than watching 22 men chasing a bag of wind.

Football isn't that different to politics, all said.

In other news, saw an obituary & thought "who's that?"

Thats training done also ended up with update on safeguarding numbers. It's a good job i've heard it all before some current cases are complex and not comfortable reading. Someone new it all would run a mile.

Someones turned the temperature up outside. Gardening (shrub trimming and weed removal) being undertaken in short spells out of the shade.

A warm and sunny day here chez Casa Reynard.

Crashed out for a solid ten hours, but my word, am I stiff and creaky today. Spent the morning sorting ingredients for this afternoon / evening's cook fest, and have also made spiced cranberry and tangerine relish with the bag of cranberries that I had to remove from the freezer compartment in the fridge in order to make space for the salvaged joints.

I am about to make the paste for a curry sauce. The leg and wing from the turkey will go into a curry. I will roast the breast. I will fry off the two ribeye steaks and also roast the piece of beef rib that had partially defrosted and that I thus couldn't re-freeze. I think the two gammons will have to wait till tomorrow, I think.

It sounds like a lot, but once the stuff is cooked, I can safely re-freeze it.

At this rate, I shall be going to the cat show on Saturday for a rest!
