I am gardening (weeding and cutting grass) l do not like gardening . There are huge amounts of rosemary growing here so l am cutting it back and giving it to the restaurant across the road .....they seem pleased . Strange people french chefs

Which reminds, mine needs cutting back...

Might use some of the trimmings for parmentier potatoes.

I've been a bit busy . I have fitted a 3 bike bike rack to the back of our car . I first of all fitted it upside down, it was bought at a garage sale and there weren't any instructions. I looked at how Halfords did it and have now fitted it correctly . I then dug my convertible tandem out and started to take it apart . I thought I would take it along to the Cherished vehicle show and put it next to my wife's museum stand . It took a while for me to remember how it came apart. I thought it might draw a bit of interest .

I'm early for an appointment and sitting waiting in a basically deserted car park and I witnessed a texting driver drive his Seat Leon straight into a lamp post. Did a surprising amount of damage to the car.

I know I shouldn't laugh at others misfortune but 

Maybe he will now know why texting when driving is a silly thing to do (but more likely will blame the council for putting a huge lamp post in his way. It wasn't even wearing hi-vis! ).

I've just completed 2 very difficult sudokus. I now need a rest.

I have problems pronouncing it never mind doing them

I have just met a very handsome tall Gamekeeper.

Your Surname isn't Chatterley is it your ladyship?

That's what I was thinking when I read @Speicher 's post...

Anyways, lunch eaten. A chunk of pork pie, plus a roll with cheddar and chutney, a banana, a peach and two

I am now in the throes of marmalade making.

I've done thousands of them but I still need to check which vowel goes where.

First batch of marmalade already in jars, the second is half done, so just grabbing a few moments to bum park and have a nice and two custard cream biskits.

Back home on a very crowded ferry. Masks were in evidence, just not worn on faces.
Unpacking is a nightmare as I do a lot of non perishable food shopping and also done something to my right hip. Not trike related as it happened suddenly some time after.
Heading up the road a recumbent trike passed going the other way. Not that common. I would have stopped for a word or two but was in a line of traffic all doing nearly 60mph.
Rain is now on and weekend looks wet in the forecasts.

People celebrate anniversaries like diamond or ruby. Where and when do bicycles come in?

Managed to drive home without crashing into any lampposts

Very wet here

Project Marmalade (orange, lime & ginger) has been completed.

Cats have been fed. And shortly it will be time to feed me. I shall just have a sandwich of some kind, am too knackered to bother cooking.
