I have a separate chest of drawers specifically for cycling clothing. All 4 drawers are full.
The nearest I've ever been to Doncaster ciity centre is Platform 1 of the rail station while changing trains.

Sshh! Fun capital of western Europe. Are there really girls in bright paint and tight clothes?

Evening hot chocolate went down well

Hot chocolate is totally fatal for me.
Slight exaggeration, but it makes Exlax look slow acting.
Ruined one of the hottest dates of my limited and constrained life.

Food has been prepared for tomorrow and I'll top off the Dart Charge account just before I go.
The custard doughnuts seem to have evaporated - from the pack of five, there's only one left.

It's been a greyish and blustery day here chez Casa Reynard, but pleasant enough for that.
Slept reasonably well, but was woken up by a cat biting my nose. Who needs an alarm clock! Had a gentle morning, which involved hard boiling three eggs for my święconka tomorrow. Although I decided that I couldn't be bothered to make some dyes to colour them - I had beetroot (pink), spinach (green), red cabbage leaves (blue) and onion peel (orange). Instead, I spent the time making the filling for a cheesecake.
Had a lovely luncheon of bread & butter, Scandinavian-style herrings* in a dill marinade, fruit and a
Then it was off to town hunting yellow stickers and other bargains. Tesco yielded a large tray of free range chicken portions (not for me, but a friend's request) as well as topping up on the 15p veggies. Namely broccoli and carrots, as well as some leeks that were on a really good offer. Waitrose turned up a large bag of plaice fillets and some Scottish salmon off the counter, cooked sliced turkey (for Madam Lexi), a butternut squash and four avocados.
Fabby supper of poached wild Pacific salmon, buttered new potatoes, beetroot and a salad of spinach and sultanas with an olive oil and balsamic vinegar dressing, followed by the last of the apple crumble and the last of the custard.
A quiet evening is planned, albeit I need to bake my cheesecake.
* the herrings actually hailed from Ireland. Bought in Waitrose. Very nice.

I'd eat it before it disappears, like the rest.

test drive of the new car over distance , tried using the inbuilt sat nav for a road trip with a distance of 110 miles each way so 220 .I had over 300 miles of fuel but the sat nav took me a really out of the way insisting on motorways rather than the normal a road.In the end i had to put extra fuel in to make it home 
Normally takes 2.5 hours turned into closer to 4 each way !
Reading up i have since found out the onboard system is renowned for being crap so i will be back to waze next trip !
from my house to mablethorpe is usually heading across newark/ lincoln direction but the sat nav took me up the m 1 , then m180 to grimsby before coming back down the coast !
mini ck 1 has decided eating anywhere but home makes her feel ill so that was fun, mrs ck was in full strop mode and i was tired anyway having got to bed around 1.30 am after late shift at work .
Sitting here beer in hand ............

I've wrapped it in clingfilm and put it in the fridge to slow the evaporation.
