Had a busy day today. Took dog for a walk this morning then rode my bike to see my son in Rhyl, 11 miles with a tail wind and 11 miles back with head wind which took me 15 minutes longer, then took dog again for a run ( the dog, not me). Now just waiting for my tea as I am starving.

Just back from taking a grandson to work and dropping off cake to my son and another grandson.

It's all go innit.

Been to three Iron Age hill forts today and had a long walk along the Avon & Kennet canal. Lunch at a canal side pub. Back to the van to catch up with the Giro Rosa, TdF and British GP.

Bummer! My friend had to cancel the video session as the microphone broke in the previous class. This lead to 45 minutes of texts, WhatsApp, Messenger to contact everyone and stop them going to the gym.

Exhausting!!

Had a good nap after lunch. Three hours on the allotment. Harvested +/- 100 garlic bulbs which are hanging in my woodshed to dry. Need to start thinking about sowing winter veg now.

Sat in garden with a beer. Mrs P on her second Pimm's while watching Federer v Nadal. I've made tea four times this week - I await my meal with interest.

Thought you had already cleaned the place out?

Wandered in to house. Mrs P "Tea is ready. Perhaps you'd like to dish up?"

Tea was meatballs, out of the freezer which I made last week, with pasta!!!!
