Morning. After a horrible afternoon and evening of stabbing nerve pains in my foot, they disappeared so got a few hours kip. Not sure whether to have an early bimble again or not. It will be a very gentle one if I do. The old body is feeling a bit wrecked these days.
We have heavy rain forecast tomorrow so feel I should make the effort to get out today.

I have risen!
Good morning all fellow members.
A grey start to the day here.
The second mug of tea is being drunk and I am contemplating the day.
Our son, 32, turned up late last night as he had been out but lost his mask so no taxi would pick him up. He is asleep in the spare bedroom.
I have the dog to walk as normal and next doors cats to feed, as the owners are away.
As the weather is not favourable for the next few days so bicycle TLC will be taking place
New gear and brake levers and handlebar tape for the touring bike , and a general clean up.
Should keep me busy for a while.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Good morning. The weather seems to be ok at the moment. Today is going to be the best day of the week according to Countryfile

Stay safe folks.

Good morning folks
Good morning fellow retirees,
Decided that a walk to the hospital for my blood tests appointment will be better than the bus. Only 3 miles, nothing like @Mo1959 epic adventures!
Heading into Poole afterwards for breakfast, there's a few bits and bobs we need so I'll wander into Wilko if it's not too crowded with bloody pensioners 😉
Have a lovely peaceful day folks

Mo.......sometimes you need to listen to your body. Even the best athletes have rest periods.
Stay well.
You can't trust them Countryfile guys. They spend half the day with their hand up a cow's bumGood morning. The weather seems to be ok at the moment. Today is going to be the best day of the week according to Countryfile

Morning all, a bit damp here.
As ever, my calendar for the week is completely blank.

Morning all and a BIG to each and every one.
A pleasant morning here before tomorrows thunder storms arrive.
We are debating a walk.
Not a Mo type walk. There is an area south of town called Walton**. Its nice and rural and has large golf course. We will have a drive out and a ramble.
**we were going to live there but found we were just one million pound short.
You know the golf supplies company.....American Golf. The guy who started the UK franchise has a large new property there.......in a place where planning was banned......."go figure" as they say.

Morning all
Found out yesterday that the people who own this caravan site we are on in Cornwall used to live 3 miles away from us in Worcestershire.
They knew our old house, when I described it to them.
They moved to Cornwall the same year we moved to Devon.
Small world, ain't it?
