the bus to take mini ck 1 didnt show so had to try and take her to school, managed to get about 2 miles from home in over an hour and it was gridlock so in the end gave up for the day .

We survived the transit from Victoria to Wandsworth.
Not too cold and Komoot did a reasonable job.
Now we wait for the injunear.

Pre flight check must include a good supply of quality paper.

No, totally incognito
Had my cold weather zone, overgarment, officers, black, no labels, issue with thermal lining (removable). No hood!

I've been feeling cold all morning so I had a big chicken madras with naan for brunch. I'm still not feeling warm yet. I'm now considering diving under the duvet.

Well the magic has been performed. I trawled a nearby Decathlon. Lots of reductions on bikes.
Managed a South Asian lunch and collected Hercules.
I'm assured that he is now fit for use
My navigation back to Victoria was a bit off. I saw bits sarf of de rivvah I didn't recognise.
Appeared to be a lot less traffic, but some head banger cyclists.
Me, the obvious bumkin stopping at red lights and so on.

Lunchtime stroll completed earlier chilly
No afternoon cuppa as busy busy
It's gone dark all of a sudden

A grey and rather raw, bitter day here chez Casa Reynard.
Slept OK-ish, but knowing I have to get up when the alarm goes off is a guarantee that I'm always awake well before. And I'd set an early one, as I knew I had to scrape the ice off the car. That was fun... NOT. Met up with a friend for our weekly walk, but it was truly miserable out, and despite us both being well wrapped up, we cut things short as it was unpleasant out.
I gave her a portion of the turkey madras I made last night, and four slices of black forest ham. She gave me my tupperware back (turkey stock) and a selection of jam jars with non-knackered lids. Stopped off at the book exchange on the way home. Dropped off a Delia Smith cookbook that I had double, but picked up four more to have a browse through.
Lovely luncheon of cranberry-topped pork pie, toast with black forest ham, an apple, a pear and two
I had planned on going into town this afternoon to furnish myself with some walking boots in Mountain Warehouse, but took an executive decision not to. The road outside is icy, and once over the level crossing, the main road into the village was quite wet. The latter is not gritted, so it'll freeze over again. I probably will leave that till the weekend - I have no desire to skate off the road and into a water-filled drainage ditch.
Not cooking tonight as there's stuff in the fridge that just wants warming up, but I will be making some coronation chicken (I bought four cooked chicken breasts for 58p the other day) and some smoked salmon mousse / pate thing. Of the latter, we enjoyed the batch I made so much that the parental has requested I make another.
Currently sat by the fire to warm up after re-stocking all the wood bins and emptying the trailer.
