Warm and overcast here chez Casa Reynard.

I did not sleep well either. Kept waking up. Felt rather ropey this morning, so have spent the time writing. Did water all the assorted pots outside, and also found a random walnut sapling in one of the flower beds. I have dug it out and potted it up, and it is now sitting next to the three that I dug up last autumn from a nearby hedgerow.

Almost time for lunch, and then I'm off for some bike time. I'll be taking the hybrid, as I'm going to run some errands at the same time.

Whilst waiting for my MOT walked along to a field and watched some wildlife. There were 3 Skylarks busy flying up and down in a field of linseed , way over in the distance a Buzzard was being mobbed by a Crow . The Buzzard was quite easily evading the Crow, hardly expending energy whilst the Crow was flapping like mad trying to gain altitude . It was interesting just watching the wildlife going about its business, there were Bees busy pollinating the flowers. It then occurred to me as to how many insects it would take to pollinate the whole field !

I think I will just jump in to my box and pull the lid on.Finding shorts today was a nightmare.It's my idea what is a fair and good price.And I don't like cargo shorts those big side pockets.So two hours of waking about checking out styles and prices.So best shorts M and S £15,next was a pair on a sale rack in Sports Direct,Kangol £14,finally my lovely man outside Leeds Market shorts for cycling £9 and they are nice,so finally sorted.Plus a bonus called in to Waitrose Meanwood,Monkey Shoulder whisky on sale £22. going back tomorrow to buy that,it is too good a deal to miss.

Right, bike time!

I didn't manage to get out on the bike this morning. I did indulge in bike-related things though i.e. washing four bikes, and fettling the brakes on two of them. All while wearing a hat, as I think I've had too much sun in the last two days and as I have a ride with a friend tomorrow, I thought it prudent to limit exposure today. I say that, but then it's been cloudy all day - still probably the right decision though as the sun would have affected me anyway.

And I'm terrible at remembering to apply sun cream.

hold on to your hats,one is going shopping in town.Proper shopping,those famous words spring to mind,I MIGHT NOT BE A LONG TIME.Shopping it's months and months last time in town i was just passing through from the hospital.

My self and Mrs p have not been to supermarket for the last twelve months.All food shopping has been home deliveries from Tesco and Acado We will stick with having deliveries Saves using the car and odds and ends can be bought from the local shop
Weekly shop used to be a twenty mile round trip Only have to carry the shopping from the front door to the kitchen Suppose we are turning into a pair of old fuddy dudies 🤓🤓🤓

Had a nice 15 miler in the company of Wiggy #2, the Chartres via Ely, Chettisham and Littleport. And I done some shopping (for non-essentials!!!) and dropped off mum's prescription.

Have fed the cats, and am going to have a look in the fridge to see what takes my fancy.

jealous Mr & Mrs Fuddy. I seem to go every day. but I remember my 1st trip 4/6/2020 (for my Mother-in-Law) like it was yesterday. I didn't bring my readers in so I couldn't focus plus the only eye protection I had was sunglasses, so I really couldn't see what I was shopping for. had to call out from work cuz my MIL was moved from 1 residence to another & we had to provide supplies (her meals were provided for) & Wifey couldn't arrange a delivery of other sundries. had to drive a cpl hrs to CT, shop, deliver, wave to her & her attendant on her balcony, then drive home back to MA. it was all quite stressful

Apparently there's a problem with my Amazon order

Interesting as I haven't ordered anything from Amazon in at least four years ...
