Sshh... I think I got away with it.

As I've got about ten days worth of overtime no-one will worry too much.

That's good then

Morning.
Our water was cut off earlier but it is now back on . It does make you wonder what to do in those circumstances . At least we have water butts so if need be we could use those .

It looks like we had rain in the night as the ground is wet .
We have grey sky here with a small break in it . Not sure what the weather forecast is .

Was a lovely crisp frosty morning when out for my perambulation.

I suffered a delay with a "mechanical" as a small stone somehow got in my shoe and I had to stop to remove it.

Looks like we have some blue patches in amongst the clouds.
Garden birds have been fed.

Our water was off once for 4 days and I got water from the water butts for loo flushing for 2 households. I had 4 large water butts in those days all fortunately full.
We got bottled water delivered free and we could go to the main depot and collect more if required. I went up and noticed green mould on the outside of some bottles. They were 4 years beyond the use by date. Did us no harm.

Grey sky but dry and little wind so far. Temp 2.1C and no fancy sunrise.
Looks to stay about freezing point for the next couple of weeks
It would be a good triking day but I have an audiology appointment which is every 6 months to get my hearing aid checked and retubed as well as checking for wax.
This service was stopped by the lockdown and has only just restarted.

I had a positive covid test this morning, not unexpected given that Hebe Jr is recovering from it and Mr Hebe tested positive yesterday. Now in bed with a loose objective of drinking coffee and working through some GCN+ content. Maybe adding to my fantasy bike list if all that gets too difficult.

The postman hit the corner of the kerb in the car park outside and bust the front tyre. I wonder how he will explain that to his boss.

Dammit!

I’ve torn my left tricep muscle. My arm’s in a compression bandage. However, I’m left handed so teaching will be fun.

I’ll get the youngsters to write things on the whiteboard for me. It’ll be good writing practice for them.

But, it hurts.😥

Ouch! Wishing you speedy healing.

I have watched Lost Races: Bordeaux-Paris and am now onto Lost Races: London - Holyhead. My coffee doesn't taste right

In other post-related news there is still no news. This 48-hour tracked parcel has now taken 96 hours to not get here.

Apparently the two helicopters here yesterday evening were Chinooks.

I often hear helicopters overhead, not usually at night and this was much louder.
