Oh, I thought you were going on an actual bike ride, not just the warm up

I like your pink top....

As you may recall, I put 'The Floral Dance' onto my wife's Spotify playlist without her knowledge.

Ever since, I keep getting 'London Pride March' anthems on my suggested feed.

Is this a coincidence?

Perhaps they are just promoting Noel Coward.
Oh, that may be a different sort of London Pride.
Put this on her Spotify next:

Surprisingly good and complex bridge in there, BTW.

Beautiful

Correct. We did an easy 15 mile loop from the pub through Willoughby and Peatling Magna.

The club is just starting up so we are keeping things easy to build up numbers. Next weeks ride will be a pootle along the towpath to Watermead Park. The hope is we can grow numbers to split rides into different abilities. The plan would be for everyone to set off together and ride the first 3-5 miles at an amble, then to divide into a group of dawdlers to do 15 or so whilst a faster set will go for a more challenging ride. If we can plan it right both groups should then meet up in the last couple of miles and arrive back at the pub for beer together.

Good plan. There are many people out there looking for such rides so I'm sure it will be a sucess.
Well done!

Just watching a programme about the Sepilok Orang Utan rehabilitation centre which we visited and stayed at last August .

I love Orang Utans me. Fantastic to see the work that the centre is doing to raise and return orphans to the rainforest.

PS avoid palm oil whenever you can.

Much better this morning. Still rough but seem to have sweat the worst out. Woke dripping wet. Sat outside getting some sun.

That didn't last. Felt awful again just after. In bed, tried painkillers and ended up being ill. Just made it home from Wales. Night all.

Trying to decide whether to start painting my hall or to relax on the sofa

A good finish to a good day, sat here browsing cycle chat with a large glass of old speckled hen at hand. An evening enhanced by an appearance of the phantom rasbery blower of old London town and other characters from the Two Ronnie's sketch book.

I think you mean "Proof I dressed in rather too tight Lycra and sat astride a bike"...

Thank you for your support and encouragement.

It was a lovely warm sunny afternoon and my wife was busy gardening up by the pond so I popped up to see what she was doing. Whilst I was there I noticed a frog moving between some plants, then I noticed another and then another. There were 6 frogs sun bathing in the pond, we think they were in there because the garden is so dry.

My hall will still need painted tomorrow evening.

My hall will still need painted tomorrow evening.

That's a very needy hall. It should learn patience.
