The past couple of afternoons I have been tinkering out on my bike in the shade. Whilst I was quietly doing a bit of cleaning I heard a faint rustling in some undergrowth. I thought it could have been a mouse . I kept quiet and tried to see what was making the sound but it had stopped . It started again but I still couldn't see it . Eventually a Georgie popped out ! . He had been sleeping there in the shade out of the sun. He did a similar thing yesterday but came over to see me . I first heard 2 faint cries to let me know he was there . He gave me 2 blinks to let me know that everything was okay and then he settled on the concrete path to cool down .

Nice 28 miles covered
And back before I had to be so bonus
Garden birds have been fed
First cuppa going down well

Moving stage 2 complete: Middle Son and I filled the van with furniture and boxes.

First trip in a couple of hours.

It was a warm night so we slept on the lawn.

Hebe Jr and I decamped to the tent in the garden early this morning. Slept much better.

I opened the front door last night to see our two dozing on the concrete in the shade.

Bright sunny morning with virtually no wind.
Need to brave the dreaded coop as I have run out of some foodstuffs and I cannot get to Oban as MOT is due next week.
Off today to attend to political matters.

I am an 80mm lightweight/ latex inner tube for rim brakes short out here in the Vendée.

It'll have to wait until I get home to do the repair as it's on a spare wheel.

On another note I saw the buyer of an old bike I built five years ago. Son no. 2 has been aggrieved I sold a 24" wheel seven-to-single speed kids bike-to-adult conversion we did (on here under the Projects folder), reminding me for the past five years, and the current owner wants to sell. Think BMX for adults. It'd be a nice winter university commuter for him.
