Tea? (Part 3)

[IDMark2]

Morning!! Bright and not breezy... Hi SL, saw your report on your sons ride, well done to him, cycling grabs another 'It's hard for me but I'm going to anyway' trier..

Busy taxiing and entertaining weekend for me, have to pack in as much 'being Dad' as I can every other weekend... OK, coffee in the relative quiet...

 

[welsh dragon]

Morning everyone. Hope you all have a great day. Hope you had a good weekend ian. Coffee to hand. This is the best part of the day. enjoy yourselves, whatever you have planned for today folks.

I did thank you WD, now to finish off my experimental bike mish-mash (I'll do a blog entry about this sometime later I think) and then go for a ride on it this afternoon after dog-walk time to test out...

Well, I've just had my muesli but I could be tempted by a croissant and marmalade....

 

[IDMark2]

Published, one story of Frankenbike.. clouding over now, may be a shower passing. No extra large croissant yet... Have some tasks to do with forthcoming wedding so back later...

It's a thunderstorm... some dry washing saved... lucky dog is a bit deaf these days otherwise he'd be going mental...

Morning all. I've already done a quick dash around the block this morning.......just 18 miles, but it was so lovely. Another blazing hot day here in Suffolk, with the last of the lambs still in the fields, the last of the cow parsley in the lanes, and birds twittering madly. Some of the barley around here is full height, and looks like it will be ripe in a couple of weeks. Amazing what a bit of sunshine does.

In the course of my ride I measured, again, the course for my wife's running club "pub run" on Wednesday: three times now, between us, and we've narrowed the starting point down to about 20 metres. I guess we'll have to get the trundle wheel out and do it all official.....

Now the fun is out of the way, I guess I'll have to settle down and do some work.

Happy Monday fellow 24 hour teadrinkers and have fun [to those heading for Abertawe/Middlesbrough etc]!

You would think, or perhaps it's just me, that if the Met Office HQ is about 5 miles from here as the crow flies and if that crow was flying with the prevailing wind along with the clouds that it would in half an hour pass over my head, that someone in that monolithic building with massive windows and an equally massive supercomputer might, just might get the forecast for a village 5 miles down the road a little bit accurate...wouldn't you? <Rant mode off> Going out anyway. After a cuppa.

I like the idea of the last of the lambs in the fields... it means the first of the new seasons lamb will soon be at the butchers.

I've been into town and done a few things/bought a few things.
Now home and shoulder is hurting again....more painkillers methinks!

Go for a walk, along the route of the run and count your steps.
Another way of getting the distance!

The first of the lambs were slaughtered weeks ago. Lambs around here are generally born in January.

Finally able to log on without feeling nauseous.
Thought that I would have a horrible morning, throwing up left right and centre but feeling a lot better now. I have had my second cup of tea. The first one got thrown out after I dipped my paint brush into it instead of the undercoat - as you do. I have had some toast and honey as well.

I am still waiting for the 9-1 delivery of my phone that should have been here on Friday. I've finished undercoating the caravan and now deciding whether to paint the cupboard/seat carcasses Antique Cream and the cupboard/cubby hole doors Duck Egg Blue or the other way about. I am mucking out the fish tank while I am thinking about it.
