Got out for a short run. Too windy going uphill to be much fun and more traffic than expected. Nice to get out for a bit tho’.
More clearing out and some charity shop stuff out in the car with more still to go. Some footwear also. A good pair of fur lined boots which hurt my right foot and I have been unable to stretch them to stop it from causing corns.
Some other footwear I will never use again as well as bits of clothing.

I have joined a local litter picking group.On Saturday I will buy a picker from a local hardware store and I might need a ring for the bag,they come from a local leader organizer.Then out I go grabbing and picking up,it's surprising how many are doing it.If I could I would deal with the grass cutting of green areas in pavements.They need looking at plus cars need to stop parking on them.They are being turned to mud.
 
It's been a mild and grey day here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept quite well, then had a good brunch of pate on toast and some fruit before hoofing off to Tesco for a spot of yellow stickering. Had to negotiate a rash of regulars and a plague of opportunists today. The former were all behaving a bit oddly; one of them is known for using the self service tills and accidentally on purpose not scanning stuff / switching labels around, while couple of the others are just, well, grabby... And the latter i.e. the opportunists always tend to be grabby anyways...

I've had better days I suppose, but through practicing patience, didn't come home empty-handed... I have breaded chicken fillets, king prawns, two packs of chipolatas, a job lot of Pate de Bruxelles, coleslaw, green beans, two punnets of raspberries, a pot with a mint plant, a farmhouse loaf, eight pains au chocolat and a pack of tortilla wrap things.

Have been chilling for the rest of the afternoon / early evening. Although I have nearly demolished half the panettone that I baked yesterday. :hungry:

Anyways, I'd better feed the cats as I am being stared at.

Cycled 35 miles today on the Brompton, with a stop in the middle to visit my uncle who recently got home from hospital where he was since before Christmas due to COPD, covid and double pneumonia with the added complications of a perforated ulcer and subsequent operation while he was in hospital. My aunt is also laid up with broken vertebrae after cancer treatment left her with brittle bones. :sad: Good health really is everything.
