Weird isnt it, how your taste buds change. We always used to drink full fat. As kids we would fight for the cream at the top. Years ago we switched to semi then to skimmed.
When my bro visits we have to get some semi in as they cant stand skimmed.

I decided to take Mrs T out for her Birthday 👍🎂
A gentle 5 jog along the trail and round the ponds. As we approached home I suggested going round again as an extra special treat 😉
Roads eerily quiet, a few cyclists about, one wearing a decorators mask, another a Wooly scarf over his lower face.
Had a message from friends who live in the Denia region of Spain, they've been confined to barracks until 14th April.

I repeat my offer. I will swap you one bog roll for a bottle of Cognac.

Just back a 25 mile bimble on the hybrid. Quite chilly and breezy but good to get out. Roads definitely quieter.
I noticed at the corner where I turn in to my street that the garage that does tyre fitting has closed it's doors. Wonder if other garages will do the same. Maybe they could just deal with emergencies by prior arrangement or something.

Although we live in a big town we have a fairly big garden that backs onto a country park so over the years we have been blessed with a variety of birds. These have dropped off a lot in the last few years.
Strangely, this week we have had some we haven't seen for ages.
Just one hour ago we had a Goldfinch on the window ledge....very strange.

I think nature and wildlife will actually benefit from this. Sadly, it will be short lived once it’s all over and the pollution levels ramp up again.

G'day all. Late on parade today. Been on the phone all morning. First the taxman for nearly an hour, during the call he put me on hold I'm sure he went for his tea break, came back 5 minutes later to finish sorting my account. Then the GP, you are number 10 in the queue, oh well what the heck, half an hour of hanging on to get a prescription sorted. Got a sore elbow now.
Happy birthday Mrs T 🎂

Many years ago now when I worked on a farm above Port Glasgow they used to trek up over the fields to dig up potatoes. We used to do regular patrols but could never catch them. What was more interesting was the time somebody stole all the fence posts alongside the main road and all the young beasts and yeld cattle got out and were eating the gardens in Kilmalcolm before we found out. Getting them back up the road was a nightmare. When ploughing the top fields we listened carefully for strange noises. I once got a sack full of brass taps and in another case a new but empty dustbin which somebody had dug a hole for and buried.
