Washing machine has finished all powered by the solar panels now the washing is hopefully going to dry out on the whirly gig

Good morning from a very soggy Suffolk after yesterday evening's rain. Another grey and miserable start to the day, but the clouds are now starting to clear and the sun is out.

Coffee has been had and I'm looking forward to another day of doing as little as possible.

Dont let Mrs P see this,but i am thinking of riding again next year.the vertigo and dizziness seems not to be a problem,i might just give it another go in 2025.I will be 75 then and it would be a great celebration feat for me i think.

Weed pulling has been carried out.
Wallflowers, pansies & violas have been sorted in various pots & troughs.
A row of peas have been planted that should crop next spring. I'll plant a couple more rows at fortnightly intervals to extend the pea picking season.

Three loads of washing done and outside in the sunshine all mostly dry! Ironing in progress.

Hoovering is about to take place. Not sure whether to go full Freddie Mercury or not... 🕺

That depends – have you done the laundry yet?

I almost did a load of laundry this morning. Instead, I find myself eating haddock and chips at Folkestone Harbour. Rectangular plate.

Warm, humid and mostly sunny day here chez Casa Reynard after the overnight rain.

Slept reasonably well, and treated myself to a lie-in whilst listening to the cricket. I feel less grotty, but my sinuses are a snot factory today, I'm a bit chesty and my right arm still aches. The only constructive thing I have done so far is do a load of laundry.

This afternoon, I will iron my white coat as I will need it for Saturday (Supreme Cat Show), and I will begin to put together all the stuff I need. I'll start with my judging / stewarding kit, so will need to check the contents of the bag it lives in to make sure that everything is present and correct, and to refill bottles of hand gel and the like.

Tomorrow, I will sort out snacky stuff, as I'm feeding both the friend I'm travelling with and the judge I'm stewarding for. Ostensibly, all three of us will be provided with a lunch at the show (table workers, judges and stewards get fed), but cat shows being cat shows, things never run smoothly and sometimes luncheon can fall by the wayside. Or the only things left are the bits no one likes.

Anyways, time for luncheon here.

I am normally excused laundry unless I have strict instructions on how to not knacker everything. Similarly, I am banned from doing anything with the whirlygig except to deploy it and take it down. Pegs are a definite no-no!
