Mundane News

[Kempstonian]

No rain today. It is sunny, warm and breezy here chez Casa Reynard.

So I dusted off the mower and went to cut some grass. It is definitely more than knee high in place. Ooops. I may also have sampled a few plums while mowing. They are starting to ripen, so plum crumble may well be on the agenda.

I'll do some more this afternoon. Then I will have earned some art time / tinkering time.

Oh, and there's Formula E later too. The series is being sensible and is holding all the remaining races in Berlin.

And I need to decide what I shall be having for lunch.

Oh, what time and which channel please? I wouldn't mind watching that!

Balls. They're quite mundane aren't they? We take them for granted but we can't do without them.

Here's how they are made...

Reminds me, I haven't used mine for a while. I wonder if you can cook rice in it?

I've been thinking about this, l guess if you were really careful and knew the right amount of water to right amount of rice it might be possible. The old one l have is made of glazed clay and it is cracked and blackened from use , l'm pretty sure that it would end in a messy disaster if l tried it. To be honest l always cook rice or couscous separately from whats going on in the tagine

Apparently, I'm going to building a guinea pig run. My wife and daughter have informed me of this today.

Bonkers! Yesterday when I wanted to put the washing out I had to wait for a shower to pass, today I want to put washing out and I'm having to wait for a shower to pass, both days didn't have any rain in the weather forecast.

I am here now.

Later on I will not be here, I will be wented somewhere else. I wouldn't start from here if I was you.

I didn't start from here: I'm just passing through.

@Reynard: Have you been "Sharing" the weather again?

I just ordered a beer online from the bar and got an email confirming it. The bar's only 5 yards away! That's covid for you.

Can't pin that one on me today, it's been mostly sunny, dry, warm and breezy here chez Casa Reynard.

I'd happily share warmth and sunshine.

The app invited me to track my shipment. So I watched the chap bring it over.
