The service is now over. They did the social distancing thing for the service,yet now they're all stood around the grave,very close to each other!

Speaking of mortality.. I saved the lives of two bee's today.
A honey bee was flitting around our lounge, so I caught it in the aquarium net.
T'other, a bumble bee, flew into my car as I drove to work. I had to stop and let it out or it might have not bee..n able to find its way home 🏡

I thought Coventry was a long way from the sea.

Rail fitted, bent round the bay no problem, curtain up, job done, sorted.

it didn't look like this did it?

I know know that I occasionally get acephalgic scintillating scotomas. The words alone are enough to give you a headache.

Oh, I was hoping for one of these

More grass cut this morning. Lunch consumed - a bit of a bitsas, but the fridge is now cleared of leftovers. About to go out and cut some more grass now that I've had my pee break and break.

It is lovely and sunny here.

Today's theme in the photography challenge is "Mirror Images"

A two part mould is a mirror image, as is the sugar casting. Which are both in a mirror, which also gives a mirror image...

Half my Sutton's seeds order turned up. These were the plugs that were supposed to be the 'earliest' ready - 42 Begonias and 42 Gazania. I was getting worried as some reviews recently have said the plants turned up with half the plugs dead. Fortunately all mine are fine. Going to let the plug plants settle a day or two, then plant in tubs in the greenhouse for them to harden off. I thought I had loads missing, but then realised they are plugs, and 21 plants do actually fit in a small space.

Left to arrive are 42 Impatiens, 42 Antirrhinum Crackle & Pop and 3 more tomato plants - sweet aperitif. I've got 6 of the yellow baby tomato plants and 2 beef tomatoes. Here is hoping for the sun now.

Hoping to have quite a colourful garden this year !

Yeah that's the type of thing, don't get migraines very often well not in the last few years, was okay out on the ride apart from being a bit warm which is another side effect I get. Going to have a shower, take some Solphedeine tablets & sit with closed eyes for a bit. have some food & a quiet night, after a good nights sleep I'll be fine again

That's another day of grass cutting behind me. Got another hour's worth tomorrow, and then we're done and dusted. Well, till next time anyway...

Have me a nice and looking forward to supper. Took a nice slab of ribeye out of the freezer.

I have been putting another frame together hoping that I could try it out this evening . I had a bit of difficulty trying to find all the bits but finally managed it . I did a 5 mile test ride . I thought that it was going to rain as it started to get a bit dark , but luckily it stayed away .
The frame was a chrome plated Carlton Cobra . I need a new chain as the one I used kept clunking .

The old people's home across the field from my apartment is hosting an accordion singing group who are performing with enthusiasm on the back terrace.

Accordion music travels a surprisingly long way. Unfortunately.

Fixed that for you. No charge.

I took part in an online quiz today with work colleagues, most of whom I have never met face to face. I started the part time job about two days into the lock down.
