When I was a cycling postman many years ago I started at 6AM and got my first delivery out before 9AM. Mostly I got round dry but it soon became evident that the weather changed about 9ish from sunny to rainy. This seemed to be a consistent pattern which continues to the present day.
I had a nice run out early this morning in sunshine but when I got back home it got wet again. Good job I always get up early or I would never get out in the dry.
Often seems to happen. It was chilly but lovely clear skies when I was out but it’s clouding over now.

I'm in the Earlswood plant centre cafe with a coffee and a sausage roll.

It ony counts as a ride if you had tight fitting lycra on.

I can’t give a reason but I hate drinks in plastic cups,especially those that have the hole in the lid to drink through.Dont mind a nice china cup or a big mug of my favourite brew.☕☕

A lot of places are using disposable cups and plates now, you just chuck them in the bin on the way out, saves them handling dirty crockery after you've finished with them.

Caravan water heater problem figured out.
It's definitely the heating element.
Went round to Leisureshop Direct...........and they'd just sold the last one in stock! :angry:
Have had to order one online, should be here Wednesday or Thursday.
Got back home about 1 o'clock. Lunch in the garden and a couple of GT Ales finest. :okay:

Hello!! :hello: Looks like a pretty decent day has dawned. Came downstairs at 6.40 :cuppa: thinks "that's a decent sleep." Clock chimes a bit later, it's 6.00am :cry:

So I have my own personal boiler service today, bloods review at 10.45. What else? Goodness knows. I'll wander round the allotment, got some leeks I really must plant and Cavalo Nero which needs potting. I might start planning 2021 allotment as I'm not very pleased with the outcome of 2020. Too much of some crops, not enough of others. Lockdown forced me to buy a lot of seed in B&Q, much of it tasteless.

Bike needs cleaning and I need a new watch strap - Google time.
Is the second the reason for the first?
