I ended up doing just over 50 miles, unfortunately during the hottest part of the day 2-5pm.
I hadn’t eaten enough beforehand and ended up bonking with 5 miles to go. I had to stop for 20 minutes and lie down in the shade on a village green. Straight after arriving home I grabbed a mahoosive bottle of Indian Tonic Water (first thing to hand) from the beer fridge and guzzled the lot!
I haven’t ever crashed like that on the bike before - so I suspect the heat had something to do with it.
Still, I now have a very cold beer in hand and the curry is in the oven, so all is well with the world.
Oww, be careful xxx
It's been radioactively hot on this side of the Hundred Foot. When the cats don't want to go out, I tend to heed their advice.
Well, I did pick some fruit. Even though I only spent half an hour outside in total, I now have a walloping headache and feel a tad *bleurgh*

Also, tomorrow is Friday, which means fish and chips for dinner.

Dinner as at dinner time (northerner), or dinner as at tea time (suvvener)?

In the evening. I can't really claim to be a northerner or a southerner, possibly a sojourner...

I too am neither from the north nor south, and eat lunch at midday and dinner in the evening.

Ooh. Stop that. No need for language like that. You're just making me hungry.

Too hot for a cooked meal tonight, so just had a bagel with lox and a schmear, and then some mulberries to fill in the gaps.

Aye tell me about it, Maz was moaning at me to cook up a Shepherds Pie with the Lamb left from last Sunday* "Or it'll go off" so I duly complied. I had to sit further back from the table to avoid the sweat running down my face landing on my plate. On the upside at least I've got meals for another 2 days and it's supposed to get cooler from tomorrow.
* It was a lovely 'Full Leg' joint, a bit expensive (£22) but absolutely lush.

Would've been wonderful just in a sandwich.
Failing that, you could have frozen the meat if it *had* to be turned into a shepherd's pie.
