Way too much frost outside for some miles.
Busy morning ahead .

Going to investigate a bit of NCN 1 I've never tried today. Providing the signs haven't been nicked I should effortlessly go from Canterbury to Sandwich then swing left on to the Viking Trail back to Herne Bay.

First cuppa went down well.
The black birds are bouncing around the back garden looking for food.
As per the normal pussycat has spread his breakfast tuna flakes around his bowl

Someone nearby is listening to Debussy. L'après midi d'une faune, I think. It doesn't quite go with the goldfinch on the tree outside.

Morning all, looks like it's going to be a cold but sunny day. Just over an hour until I stroll up to the local train station for the start of the trip to Nottingham, but first the washing has to be put on the clothes horse to dry, the recycling bin put out for emptying tomorrow** and breakfast & another cuppa have to be consumed.


**I hope it's recycling day tomorrow - nobody else in the road has put their bins out yet so I can't check.

I was thinking this evening over dinner that I don't know anyone who rides a bicycle in real life, just you lot virtually.

I know quite a few and all much younger and fitter than me. They are mostly all roadies who now whizz past but always speak and give me a wave and will give me a hand with things I find difficult now. One is a particularly good mechanic but is mostly offshore nowadays.

Still dry with occasional sunshine but it looks a bit black out to the west so the forecast rain is on the way.

You've got that all wrong. As far as I can see the modern way is to clear a letterbox sized slot on the windscreen and then drive off.

I have a cordura thing made for the windscreen that has some ears sewn on the side that have a thick corroplast or something in them that you shut the car doors on to hold it in place. Use it about 6 months out of the year.

This sitting around and waiting malarkey is quite tiring

Arse - the local train got cancelled which means I've missed the connecting ones in Ipswich for Peterborough & Peterborough for Nottingham so a delay repayment claim has been submitted. Thankfully both legs are on open returns so I should be able to make it - eventually - without buying new tickets.
