I just went for a walk and saw a heron, a Jersey Tiger moth and a crowd of crows pulling a poorly pigeon to pieces. I hung around for a while but when the pigeon stumbled off under a parked car I thought it might at least get some shelter.

Well I took the chance and left for a ride just after 2pm... the weather did look ominous but I decided to skip lunch and go for it...
2 miles in and it started spitting! I thought, here we go, a drowning coming on and no lunch!
But no! Mother nature relented, felt my pain (and hunger) and it stopped spitting
Yes, it was grety and the wind was gusting all over the place trying to blow me off the bike but I held on
I stopped at 14 miles and had a drink and a sugar free, low cal fruit and seed bar. Yummy. 22 miles in total but wind blast made it feel much further. Very enjoyable as it turned out. Glad I took the chance as it made my dinner taste so much better and deserved

First day of two weeks off. Running daughter to shops and boyfriends, then I decided on a garage tidy up. My sister dropped a surplus shelving unit off at weekend.
Pulled all the tools down, then moved all the engine parts from my son's car onto a back shelf, instead of three boxes on the floor. Some bulk bought food stuffs then on another shelf, and all the tools back on the new shelving unit. Made quite a bit more floor space. Then sorted my son's tools back into his tool chest - he is the worlds messiest worker - no wonder he can't find stuff. All his gear is together now rather than all over the place.
Pet hate of mine is not having clear access to the back of the garage as it's not easy in road shoes lifting bikes down. It took me three hours to sort it all out.

Are you sure that's a mulberry?
Looks nothing like the two in my garden... Bark, leaves and shape are totally different.

The shape of the branches look more conifer-y to me. I'm wondering if it isn't a yew.

Grey, cool, windy & ocasionally wet in this corner of Suffolk, just as expected for the first of my days off work.
Achieved the sum total of a bit of ironing and a trip over to my sister's to drop a card & a few bottles of wine off for her bithday tomorrow inbetween bouts of coffee drinking and biscuit eating.
My step sister has come across from Cornwall to visit the other side of the family this week and my half brother has organised a BBQ tomorrow afternoon- I may need thermals if I go.
