Reporting back for duty.
1st errand done.

A question for you........
When you do your weekly shop, do you sanitise every single item?
Or maybe none ?
I do every item. Until today when I thought......hang about.....many of these items are palletised and not been touched by humans. So I concentrated on other items and just gave the palletised ones a quick wipe down.

I do wear gloves when doing the shopping, but that is it. Once the stuff is put away I wash my hands before touching anything else.

Thank God. At least he realised it was Monday today. That is progress I suppose.

Does the day change at midnight or noon? I can never remember.

Are you on some kind of medication?

Are you on some kind of medication?

Yes actually 😄 But that's not what's responsible, I'm just naturally daft.

Don’t sanitize any of the shopping?

A fascinating subject. I’m puzzled why this image talks about ‘the Scots’ as if they were one people. I’d say they were 5, basically 4 quarters centred on Stirling, top left are Scots, top right Picts, bottom right including Edinburgh originally British then Anglo-Saxon, bottom left including Glasgow British Welsh. And bordered to the North and West by Vikings.
I wish I knew where I was from, the only bit I know for certain is on my mother’s side, her Dad was Devon and her Mum the Anglo-Saxon bit of Pembrokeshire, the Pembrokeshire Englishry as it was known.

Traced both sides back to this side o'Pennines, East and North Ridings, even got towns and places named after them. One even has a Scottish connection to it!

It was more the West Yorkshire DNA being unique in the entire UK.

As for where you're from, a "birds and the bees" talk would be of little use now, so I'll not bother you with that.

I don't sanitize anything. I just make sure I wash my hands after I have been shopping. You can get a bit too anal about things.

Barby the destination this morning, 62 miles the journey. My Good lady was up and about a bit earlier than usual and I was able to get out a bit earlier, that gave me time to ride a bit further this morning. I decided on a route I hadn't ridden for a while and headed out to Barby, I turned past the water Tower and did the descent down to the A45 crossed the road and picked up my regular route from Willoughby through Long Itchington, up Hunningham hill to the leamington road where I turned right through Ryton and Woolston to ride into Coventry through Binley Woods and home. A cool grey morning with a gentle breeze, but dry and not as cold as it was over the weekend. In the end it was a good morning on the bike and I wasn't too late home.

No, I don't sanatize anything.

I do peel bananas now though.
