Morning.
I'm trying to wake up. I was wide awake at 3 o'clock .
I put our garden waste bin out last night. I can look forward to collecting it later .

Sleep can be shockingly unruly though I can't really complain about my night. I almost wrote last night but decided that there were reasonable grounds for believing that there may be more nights to come, so it's not last, merely latest. It's all very confusing when you consider that the night wasn't actually late, it came pretty much at the usual time.

I thought I had better just check my lights again before taking my car for a re test. A bulb might have fainted whilst I was working on the suspension . It's strange how some bits of cars seem to get jealous!

If I mention going out on our bikes (the four of us), my wife and kids find other things to do. If I don’t mention it, we ride! So, I never said anything before the kids broke up from school.

Today will be our second family bike ride of the week! We’re doing the Solar Way again near York. An easy 12-mile ride (out and back) with the sun, the planets and a couple of satellites at their relative distances from each other along the route. 🛰🌌🚀

And you've to hope that when Night falls, it doesn't make too much noise or hurt itself. As for day break...

Our car has passed it's not.
Whilst I was driving out to the garage I heard a travel report on Radio 2. There was a diversion somewhere due to a spillage of tomato puree.
I wonder if it was near Spaghetti junction ?

Hot and breezy here chez Casa Reynard, with light high level cloud.

I did a couple of loads of laundry this morning, including a load of cycling kit. And I've prepped most of the stuff for tonight's supper. I've cooked pasta and coated it in some olive oil and black pepper, I've grilled two tuna steaks, grilled / charred a traffic light of sweet peppers and found a can of sweetcorn in the back of the cupboard.

Lunch shortly.

Have some things to do on my archive later, and then I plan on having some bike time.

Oh, and my green wheelie bin was emptied this morning.

Toast a marshmallow on a stick until it's about to gloop off, but before it burns, then sandwich it between two choccy digestive biscuits. Squidge it together until meted choc and marshmallow ooze out.
Allow to cool for a short while, then eat.. And repeat..

Sounds good; sugar incarnate.

Just out of interest, how many days does it take for the grand kids to go to sleep afterwards?

Should it have been?

 

[Reynard]

Should it have been?

Yes. Collection a day later than usual due to the bank holiday.

The parental unit has already dumped a load of garden waste in it, so it's no longer empty.

Nope, it's in my neck of the woods

I thought I would try to make a House Martin nest out of paper mache to go on my brother's house. He used to have them nesting there but they have been disturbed by Sparrows and Jackdaws. I was wondering that if they saw one there it may attract some to build there .
I know . I have weird ideas .

Had a very nice lunch of two slices of wholemeal toast with my home made confit de porc, half an avocado, a banana, a satsuma and the inevitable two
