Heading for J28, M62 at Tingley!

This isn't as stupid as it looks. There's genuinely no other 'safe' route across for anyone on a mobility scooter as the paths around are uneven and overgrown, together with no signalled crossing at the most dangerous point. I went round on Monday. And no, that's not me.

Another dreich morning. I needed my umbrella on my perambulation.

It seems as if there is another set of roadworks starting as they seem to be putting down pipes. The cone population has increased dramatically.

Just five hours to work today and then I get my ticket of leave for the weekend.

There was one recently on the A85 between Oban and Connel who got collected by police after lots of concerned phone calls. That is a narrow stretch of road and carries fast heavy traffic. I would not nowadays contemplate cycling on it tho' there are a few dedicated commuters.

Weta nd very windy but strangely no ferry cancellations yet.
Craignure village who are desperate to be number one spot on Mull are advertising Hogmanay events already and not even Halloween yet.
It is fairly well known that sea eagle nutters feed the brutes to give touroid photo opportunities but they also now seem to be putting out bait for minke whales and goodness knows what else.
So much for nature in the raw.
My wildlife pal was discussing the problem with sea eagles taking lambs with one such who denied that they ever did.
As they spoke a sea eagle rose behind him carrying a lamb which somewhat spoiled his denials.

Today's 73 plate truck has 21
1843 kilometres on the odometer and has taken me, through the fog, to St Albans.

Good morning from Suffolk where its a lovely start to the day with sunshine, clear skies and light winds. Coffee has been had and the pigeon pooped towels and cycling clothing are currently on the spin cycle by the sound of things.

It's also been an expensive start to the day with two separate gig tickets and a rail ticket purchased so far, two lots of hotel bookings still to be made and a couple of music releases also to be paid for.

The rest of the day will be a light domestics day of vacuuming and bedding change, followed up by food/snack shopping for the weekend. It's the Formula Ford Festival at Brands Hatch this weekend and I'm heading down both days.
