In moderately less mundane news, I hung around after work today and made a ramp for the step outside my apartment so I don't have to keep lifting the loaded bike up it.

Now I'm trying to work out how to get said ramp from the workshop to the apartment where it can actually be useful, using my bike.

The ramp is is about 1 metre (3'3 5/8") long, and now I'm officially German I obviously had to over engineer the thing. It probably weighs four kilos (or several bags of sugar).

I really need to get my backside into gear and bring my longtail cargo bike to Freiburg...

I was going to say to look to Hobart's Funnies for inspiration .

Schrodie was a very naughty boy this morning . He had caught a young Blackbird and brought it indoors . I managed to get it off him and locked him away . The bird disappeared into some shrubbery. I just hope that it's parent's find it.

The sky is lightly punctuated by clouds. Look, there's a parenthesis and a hyphen....

I had an All Together last week but I can't for the life of me remember which brewery it came out of, there are simply too many of them.

Brewed and canned by Signature Brewery, Unit 15, Uplands Business Park, Blackhorse Lane, London E17 5QJ.

It was part of a Signature Brew "Pub In A Box" which my lad sent me as a Father's Day present. He's a kind and thoughtful boy

Do they say how large the plants can be?

I do not believe so. Limits on amount possessed, I think.

@Reynard - would you like to give us the recipe for your beefburghers. Bought ones are not nice, so homemade ones would be much better.

Cold grey and breezy. Looks like rain.
Just like nearly every other day this "summer".
No need for sun cream round here. Don't forget the rain jacket.

And it blew. And it rained. And I had to sit behind a tractor full of shoot for 6 miles down a singletrack road.

What's this weather split?

I may carry, if I were to do so, 30 grams of marijuana, 5 grams of concentrate, or the equivalent of 500 mg in tinctures or edibles. If I were a medical marijuana patient, I could have 5 plants. Or I could apply to be a craft grower and have 5,000 sq ft.

Oh, and I don't mean to harsh any ones' buzz, but visitors may only have half these amounts.

I managed to find my online order this morning. It was the same Signature one.

Don't think the "personal use" limit is quite as high over here.

Baked a sourdough bread this morning. Then cut the grass around the house. Have had a visit from the p*ncture fairy on the mower. Have reinflated the tyre and will see - I suspect a rose or japonica thorn might be the culprit.

Lunch is on the agenda shortly. I have fresh bread, italian salami, hummus and a choice of cheeses and fruit.
