I can't move ! I have a cat asleep on my legs .

Why is it that they seem to keep using coarse tarmac! I'm watching Lisa Nancy talking on the TV by the side of a road and it is hard to hear her ! It isn't any good for the environment ! Noise pollution for one thing . The other thing is that it is going to require the use of extra power for every vehicle which uses that section of road. Even electric vehicles will have to use more power and so have to be recharged sooner. We all know how lovely it is to ride on a new smooth tarmacked road and how much effort is required to cycle on it . It just annoys me !

Tar and chip is the work of Satan Hate it when they cover a nice smooth road with it. It usually starts breaking up again within months anyway then becomes even more horrible.

It's time for my "Daily stand-up" but I'm sitting down!

My supervisor has more than likely forgotten again anyway.

No, both cats have access to the neighbours garden for that.

Fixed that for you.

The weather is doing the will it/won't it rain at the moment. It's been 'spitting' for about an hour, and I've got to decide road or MTB ride at lunch. so inconsiderate.

The council re-surfaced the 'local streets' with that spread on slop a couple of years ago. Took an age to dry, and then on any hot days, started melting. The only thing it did was hide the previous repair patches, so looks a bit neater.

Yes dangerous stuff. They put down too much gravel which either gets flung everywhere causing damage to paintwork or windscreens, or builds up and vehicles or bikes slide all over the place .

Beautiful Daughter wanted to "do some drawing with Papa". She prefers it if instead of just watching her draw or reading a book I draw something alongside her. I got a little bored yesterday:

Chilly, grey and drizzly here chez Casa Reynard.

I have spent the morning putting away the de-quarantined shopping, although I will have to play Tetris in the freezer later. I have tarragon and dill drying on top of the storage heaters, the fruit bowls are now full again, there is a chocolate and coffee cake in the kitchen and I now have a suitable assortment of eggs in brown, white and blue shells.

I've actually hard boiled two of the white-shelled ones for lunch.

Now I really like that @Andy in Germany - that would make a really fabby poster or print, you know. Could definitely see that hanging on my wall.
