Mundane News

I didn’t, to my surprise! Just under 12km completed. Good timing really as it’s getting darker and darker, despite being mid afternoon. I think it’s going to rain quite hard.

All these gas lamp and lamp lighter stories are making me think of Mary Poppins

Well done feel dizzy if I do anything!

Lovely luncheon. Two slices of toasted oat & barley bread, one with luncheon meat, one with sliced avocado, plus a pear, a minneola and two

I ended up sharing my luncheon meat with Madam Poppy.

Right, time I put on some sensible / presentable clothes and went off erranding.

See y'all the other side.

It is pouring down here. Glad I got that 🚲 ride in earlier. Hope you're all warm and dry.

I've been trying unsuccessfully to read my library book and nodding off every few pages.

Dinner is not until after swimming tonight. I keep thinking of that chilli in the slow cooker…

Well! I wouldn't want to be waiting at a level crossing when that Swiss train went through !

It is a mile long !

Erranding accomplished. Letter sent for the parental unit, there's £20 worth of fuel put in the car and I've acquired two fine-tip permanent markers, one black, one red, plus a new tube of black acrylic paint.

The red isn't quite the shade I wanted (too bright), but the one that was the right colour (a reddish brown) was only available in a point size that was much too thick for my needs. I can always glaze over the red with some burnt umber paint or something...

Now sat down with a and a chocolate chip biskit

The Treacle Tritters have started despite the rain .

Stupid fireworks. It sounds like a gunfight at the O. K. Corral is taking place outside

Good to see people are spending their money wisely during this "cost of living crisis."

 

[Reynard]

Brilliant but bonkers.

I often wonder, when I read articles about bear attacks & how virtually nothing can stop a bear attack, what if one lit a PKG of firecrackers & threw them between the bear & the hikers, if THAT would deter them. of course it might also ignite a wildfire & kill all the animals, so I guess it's a dumb idea
