Are you open to suggestions?

It`ll only confuse me further!

Decisions, decisions,decisions.....

what breakfast?

How about some kippers?

First of all I was reminiscing about Pixies and now I'm away with the fairies!

Did you survive the night @oldwheels ?

Yes still here. Nothing locally mentioned about incidents but anything to do with a tourist is kept quiet in case it frightens the rest.

Just been down to the local Calmac office as I need a trip to Oban with the car. I travel on MV Coruisk mostly as you can remain in the vehicle and do not have to mix with potential infections. The office admits it is now total madness on the ferries.
No chance this week or next to get a return the same day. No wonder I started to really hate tourists as I am now a virtual prisoner here.
The alternative is 80 miles each way and two ferry crossings. No chance.
My triking route for the rest of this week will be full of convoys of cars and motorhomes so that is out.
The jerusalem artichokes need to be tamed so that will have to suffice for exercise.

I appear to have a sore head this morning. Still, my back's almost back to normal.

60th donation donored.. Coffee and a big cherry scone on the ride home, purely for recovery purposes, of course... ☕ 🍒

For my part, I will be donating 5ml of blood to the ONS for an antibody survey they're carrying out later this morning. Or I will be trying to donate blood. My first attempt last month was a fiasco. You need one hand to lancet, a second hand to ease the blood out and a third hand to hold the very small phial. As I'd forgotten to bring a third hand with me, it all got rather messy.

I was 1st in the queue, with the bike locked up in the foyer and my waterproofs hanging in the cloakroom to dry.
I was then told that the new super-duper all singing & dancing NHS system had crashed as someone changed a printer cartridge and it didn't like it 😂

Hey ho.. Still in & out quite quickly..

I managed to glue the spongy foam underlay and then the stair carpet down despite the help from the fairies. I don't mind the spray glue , it was trying to figure out which end was which on he carpet and which section went where . It has finally gone down and doesn't look too bad. We need new carpets anyway. The carpet hasn't lasted well and has flattened a lot .

Yes, that would have been the goal.

Came back from Wales this morning to a wet Manchester, boooo.

Bacon sarnie, 3 rashers.

Through bad planning, I only have one rasher left. What use is one rasher?
