Just back from feeding our four horses, its a fairly lively affair being in the middle of very hungry and excitable animals any one of which could flatten you with just a casual nudge. Bonus this morning though, sitting on my quad bike watching the horses l became aware that we weren't the only ones there , a pair of roe deer came casually into the field not a hundred meters away and started feeding and chasing one another around . Great to see wild animals as relaxed as that especially as they are hunted by the "Le Chasse" at this time of year.

What's the betting that if all the troubles that we see on the TV which are happening where people are having to leave their homes and cars broke out here that the DVLA would issue them with a fixed penalty for not filling out a SORN ?

Daughter's mother (complicated life protocols apply) is baking me some sourdough bread today. In return, I'm going to do some shopping for her. But I won't be going to the Greenwich Aldi, who still haven't figured out what I took out of their Shop and Go on Wednesday morning. Take-nology at work....

Not interested in your uninformed opinion. There's evidence of positive impact of vaccine and of the benefits outweighing any potential risks - as well as explanations around how it was developed so quickly - if you care to look for it.

I've looked.

I've looked.

Not properly, clearly

Your surname isn't Apocalypse is it ?

Something for the weekend. Some 1970s movie action, 2 of them I’ve never seen before.

Down Loch na Keal in early sunshine before the tourists. The bottom of the dark inverted V was a favourite shore dive.

Still, murky and drizzly here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept well, the world hasn't gone *BOOM* yet and i have a zit in my nose. I have re-jigged the fridges in the kitchen and utility room and have made a pot of leek, celeriac and potato soup.

The cats are curled up in their respective beds, and we're all having a bit of a "go slow" day.

It is almost time for luncheon.

Yours being far more delectable than your lad's, I'd hazard a guess...

Turns out it was SWMBO's. Son no. 2 pinched a small pack of biscuits from it but at least I noticed before I had some explaining to do

So I'm the only one that didn't get anything today

And my university's systems are still stuffed (day 3) and I'll lose access shortly as it needs re-approving every few days. Once that happens it'll be very quiet until fixed.

Hope the missus will see fit to share...

Failing that, I can always trebuchet some chocolate over xxx

About to go on a bike ride with Beautiful Daughter...

I'm back. We rode about 20k, There was also a considerable amount of climbing on trees, building things in the forest, throwing leaves at each other, see-saws and slides.

Now I'm pooped and she's as bouncy as ever...
