Late for what?

Life!

Only problem is, it was so long ago since my breakfast that I'm getting hungry already. I might have to make a slice of toast to keep me going till lunchtime.

The best part of the day is late evening. 9-30 breakfast here. Should keep me going till about 2-30.

Why does everyone one here get up so early?

Insomnia.

Can I swear? Go on MODS let me swear.
They are such totally selfish barstewards.
OK, they think it will never happen to them but this lock down is to prevent/stop the spread.
Lock them up, water canon, shoot the b*stards (maybe thats a bit extreme) but that selfish attitude really annoys and upsets me.

Calmac have refused travel to nearly 70 over the last week apparently. Holiday home owner trying to sneak over.

Good to hear but how can they know for sure that they are HH owners?

I live about a quarter of a mile from the A470 the main artery road form South to north Wales. I can't hear any traffic at all. Hoorah

You have to produce evidence of permanent residence and also a valid reason for travel as well as photo ID. I doubt if any B&B would accept them and the hotels and campsites are all closed. Family members would know they could not visit so would not attempt it. Social opprobrium would win locally. HH owners have been trying to get to Tiree tho' at least one has offered their empty property for anyone who needs to isolate so I suppose that are not all bad.

Just back from an easy 20 miler, including a couple of laps around the cul de sac to ensure it was exactly 20 miles. Picked up a menu from a vegan/veggie place ( picked up using suitable H&S ) whilst I was out.
I’m now enjoying a bagel with peanut butter and a decaf before I start some fence painting.

@PaulSB the veggie place is on Whins Lane, have you heard anything about it? I might go with the missus once we’re safe to do so. Cheers.

Ok. I can't hear the clip clip of the horses hooves.

I was going to go out on my bike but I can't be arsed, so I made cinemon rolls instead.
