Mundane News

Half the shift and two coffees down.

Very nice ride in - cloudy, but warm & very little wind and some mist still lying over the fields. No rain yet and I'm hoping it will hold off until after I get home.

Logged in to find 71 emails which is less than I was expecting. Only two of them were of any interest - one of which was one I'd sent to myself as a reminder of things to watch in the run-up to the Le Mans coverage.

Can you recommend a good free internet feed of the coverage? Reception for Quest is spotty here at best, and I usually make do with Radio Le Mans and the live timing screen on the ACO website.

Unfortunately it's only on Eurosport TV/Player/app (hence the Quest coverage - part of the Discovery group) or the WEC app for viewing, or Radio Le Mans for listening. No free streams as far as I know. Somewhat non dry there at the moment.

Edit - there are some in car cameras on team's Youtube channels, but nothing else

Hot, sunny days with hurricanes and the like backing up the weather here, one more warm week and then the start of things autumnal. Cooler, but not cool.

Won’t start cooling down properly in this parish for at least another 4 or so weeks.

36c today.

Very fine lunch of one muffin with bacon, and one muffin with marmalade, a pear, a peach and two

Ebay seller has realised it was an oops moment on her part and has put the second pack in the post. Top service really.

I have removed the laundry from the machine and hung it up in the bathroom. It is pouring with rain outside.

A walk to Sainsburys to buy Orange juice.I opened a carton by mistake ,that one is for our son who is coming for a visit Tuesday,he has to have his own stuff due to being gluten intolerant.So I had to replace it,I opened it after putting bread in for toast.So my walk then went on to Argos for some ear buds for my new phone,then I fell in to a cafe,had a great long chat with someone I had not seen for ages.So all in all an expensive mistake this morning.

Thought they said talk is cheap!

I was racing a crit in it at Elland

Needless to say I came dead last, lapped several times by the winner, as I wasn't going to risk it on the corners. But I did finish and un-lapped myself past a few on the final lap.

That's the first time I've done a crit in over 3 years, with the one back then going badly. I wanted my final one to go the full distance.

Right, time to put some presentable clobber on, use the little girls' room, round up the shopping bags and tootle off to Tesco for a spot of yellow stickering.
