Half an hour spent watering the tomatoes and associated plants then a bit of pruning.

Got loads of garden maintenance to do so need to get a crack on with it.

Buses behaved themselves to find myself in the hospital 30 minutes early and a sign saying they are running 45 minutes late already The free day ticket actually was recognised by the ticket machines this time. Next to quiz a driver on what day ticket it actually is, suspect its not valid to Leeds.

I get one in Leeds, it's valid both ways on the Harrogate service. Can't see why it should be any different the other way round.

Had a tomato, avocado and mozzarella salad for supper, with a and some bread & butter on the side.

Seems like there's a bit of a kickoff in Leeds tonight. I hope it's not because @postman pension payments are late!

Tomorrows temperature high will be 25C, about 10C down on the same day last year.
31C in the south east.

We'd 26.9°C here around 1 this afternoon.

Theres a local day rover that extends only as far south as Harewood @ £5.70, and another that does extend to Leeds, and Bradford, but via Leeds Bradford Airport @ £6.50. The only day rover ticket valid to Leeds directly is the "Daytripper" @ £14

That's plain nut's, train would be cheaper.

It's a gentle 3 hour ride to Leeds by the way.

A very warm but thoroughly enjoyable ride, lunch & drinks was had earlier. Little bit of an oopsie when I went to take a drink and pulled the stopper/valve out of the top, but it was quickly forced back into place. As there was a phase when almost every bike part purchase came with a free bottle or I'd add the cheapest one to the basket to get free postage I've got plenty of spares to replace it.

Greater Anglia are supposed to only be able to carry six bikes on their trains, but a total of nine somehow managed to squeeze onto my local service which required a bit of juggling around when seven of us wanted to get off at the penultimate stop.

It's Thursday so it's been visit George up the street.Since cancer i only go once a week now,anyway to night he showed me HIS dad's pipe collection,George is 88 so how old are these pipes.One was superb just like a pipe someone out of Pickwick Papers would smoke.There was a faint hint of the burnt tobacco in all of them,even after all those years.

Its £4 return on the bus - the £14 is the day rover that is valid on all Transdev buses bar Coastliner. 3 hours ?

It's the similar dayrider(First/Arrival), £5.50? increased Sunday gone, that's valid on the leeds-Harrogate service.
Bit of a difference in price though.
Three hours too long?

Never any parking spaces available when you need one

Isn't your car fitted with those flashing orange emergency parking/hazard lights?

If you have those, you can park anywhere.

My Mum has my great grandfather's pipe. He died in 1987 but there is still a whiff of tobacco from it.

Been at the theatre tonight again which I really enjoyed.

I had to log into my work computer after I got back as I had to phone someone in Hawaii and obviously couldn't do it during my normal working hours.

He didn't answer
