Good day all. I've had a good sleep after yesterday's 10 mile walk. Weather looks set fair for the weekend but deteriorating early next week.

Lacking motivation and enthusiasm this morning. I'm meeting two friends at 9.30 for a ride, a good thing as it forces me to get going.

So Chorley is in some form of special measures along with the rest of Lancashire except Blackpool. Sounds daft but Blackpool is a separate unitary authority and their rate is 35/100000, Chorley is 38 but much of Lancashire is close to 100. Reading FB many, many people locally are angry and don't understand. I get it, angry people don't see the bigger picture.

We will carry on as usual though after this weekend we won't be able to see our son till restrictions are lifted.

Hope things are OK in Warrington @Dave7 ?

My timbers were a bit shivery on my early bimble. Was quite chilly.

Starving so will have breakfast first then have a nice warm bath to heat me up.

Bonjour After walking Molly, I will go on a longish ride, by that , I mean 30 miles + ( which is just a walk in the park for @Mo1959 really ) but it includes some beasty hills., so a good work out. Blue sky with a few white clouds so ideal weather.
Whilst my legs are spinning away up those hills, I will be thinking about the ebike @Drago promised me for my birthday.
The good news is that my son is back from Taiwan now and probably suffering from jet lag for a few days so I will wait till Monday to go and see him. He is going back on October 15th for another 8 weeks but will be here for Christmas, although Christmas could be a strange celebration this year due to Covid.
See you later every body. Stay safe .

Two dents coming in today and wood to be picked up soon, cars to be washed as well, love being busy.

Hmmmm........both my buddies cried off because of high winds. It was very windy at 8.00. Sun is out, wind has dropped. A mistake.

So, I now need to kick my own arse and get on with doing something.......
