I seem to be all better today. Still taking it easy. Maybe a bike ride, to test the Raleigh.

Sat watching Project Blue Book (UFO fictional series) as I am ruined. Struggling to get up to refill my glass of red pain relief (wine) - but I get there. 
My wife was telling me to 'back off and finish up' yesterday, but our friend has had a tough time and after her ex-husband had come round and helped her clear the back garden/yard and leave it in such a mess before lockdown, I just had to get the 'one day' major refurb done. Our friend was asking why we were leaving 'gaps' in between each decking board and I explained the contracting/expansion. She said - 'ah that's probably why our expensive composite stuff failed as my husband (ex) hadn't left any and it was all bowed - hence getting riped out'.
It had taken weeks to get decking ordered and delivered, just as we went into local lockdown, so couldn't do it. Managed to get the joists last week, so all was on this weekend as we came out of the local lockdown just over a week ago.
I wasn't going to leave it without the decking being 99% finished and it all cleared up in the day, but that's me, starter finisher, but to my detriment.

Hmmm, that was an interesting Grand Prix...
Though I suggest that if Mr Bottas really wants to play at being Jason Plato, the BTCC restarts at Thruxton next week.

Anyways, it's a warm, sunny and breezy day here chez Casa Reynard.
Having a quiet one, just putting the feet up.

It has been a nice warm sunny day here. I mowed our back lawn and then in the afternoon I cycled over to Lacock to see my brother . It was a pleasant ride and I wasn't in a particular hurry . As there wasn'tn't much of a breeze about I found a head wind whichever way I was pointing.
