A drizzlly lunch time stroll completed
Opted for a cheese and beetroot sandwich

Exactly what I had for lunch today

Good news - the rain has stopped and the sun is making occasional appearances.

Bad news - the expected delivery has been delayed until Wednesday. At least most of the regular domestics have been doing and I'm having a coffee and a cheese roll while waiting for the washing to finish before I go food shopping.

Was the coffee some sort of spread

I is now on fibre optic to the house broadband. I feel the need, the need for speed…

Afternoon hot chocolate went down well enough

Time to collect SWMBO from the airport, where she's flying into from Belfast on Aer Lingus.

I could conveniently forget ... but the ensuing domestic disturbance would probably be measurable on the Richter scale.

If there's been any rain its been very light. Really should not have got up this morning. Could not find the work laptop charger so presumed I had left in the office, but no sign of it.

I have to go out, the car has gone.
Have to cycle and it's raining.
The whole morning will be spent on a playing field. But not playing.

Can we postpone the rain 'til this afternoon, please?

But it didn't rain, really. And we prototyped teepees.
Wonder what the children will make of them when they get back

I'm somewhat surprised that a day's overtime in Westminster last Saturday magically transported 55,000 tons of coal to Immingham in 4 days!

That must be a lot of lorries. Not to mention the emissions.

I just managed it! I think they just had something on ITV which said that peeps over 30 couldn't jump from a kneeling position to a squat. I'm 71 and found it difficult but managed it.

It's been a cool, grey and drizzly day here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept quite well despite having to get up several times during the night thanks to lady issues. I am still feeling very bleurgh and run down, but not quite as bad as yesterday. Again, I've only done the basics, and have had a very quiet day.

A lovely luncheon of a tiger roll filled with coronation chicken, plus some fruit and a

Spent the afternoon writing. The character of Carly Bradshaw is turning into a right entitled Karen... Albeit I've only given her one circuit, and not four, given her an extra decade of age, and a daddy who is far too busy yachting in the Caribbean...

Can someone remind me tomorrow what I need to pick us a box of Shimano discs on the way to work?

Thanks.

I think they meant to say that people over thirty generally can't be bothered jumping from a kneeling position...

Time to feed the cat, and then it will be time to feed me.
