It is quite cold here, about -1C, but clear. Dawn is just breaking here now. I should go and fix it.

Spent the morning or part of it ,cleaning the front room.Then sorted out some books from the Kindle,some of them free,then five at 99p.That should keep my busy for a few more months.

Good afternoon from a bright & breezy Suffolk.

I have washed & polished the car, so any bets how long it will be before the rain starts? Short break for a mug of coffee & a banana, then I think I will risk getting the mower out and giving the lawn a last cut before winter.

Tap washer update.... 💦
The spares I had in the toolbox weren't the correct size so I flipped the original one, and with a smear of vaseline, I reassembled it until I get the correct size.
No rush, though, it isn't dripping anymore 👍🏼

Mild, overcast and very breezy here chez Casa Reynard.

I had a lovely morning walking on local trails with a friend and her dogs. And I stopped off on the way home to buy a bunch of leeks and a swede from the veg stall in the village.

Almost lunchtime, then need to sort out the de-quarantined shopping, prep supper and the red cabbage for tomorrow, and then play tetris in the freezer.

I've ordered some small diameter heat shrink tubing which I have decided would be good to stop brake cables unravelling. I'm not sure I really need five metres of it but it was almost as cheap as buying 500mm....

One word: Solder.

Just solder the end 10mm or so.

Not quite so easy with stainless steel cables.

I had a nosy in one of my daughter's music theory books earlier and discovered the wonderfully named note, the hemidemisemiquaver.

Now I have the urge to open a packet of Walkers Quavers and see if I can cut a single quaver into 64 individual pieces.

Right, I can *finally* bum park.

Time for a and a little smackerel of something.

Everything is fine in moderation. Including moderation.

Burger and chips here tonight, but made from scratch. Oh, and a nice punnet of cherries for afters.

Morning.
It is dry here at the moment .
I just saw some Crows doing aerobatics above a tree which caught my attention . I got my binoculars and discovered that they were mobbing a Raven sat in the top of a tree. They seemed to be getting a bit viscous , even perching next to it ! That was until the Raven's partner came along and then they disappeared.

Can birds actually do that?
