Grey windy day but still dry. Colder than yesterday but may manage another trike trip out.
When I got up there were 5 red deer hinds in the field opposite. Vermin will be trying to get at my cabbages again. Went out and made a loud bang with a bit of wood and they just stood and looked at me. No gun shape to be seen so why bother moving.

Good day. Grey, cold, windy but dry. My left hip aches more than usual, no idea why.

A little later I'll pop up to the allotment to see what, if anything, needs doing. This afternoon I really need to finish my growing plan and order seed.

Some household admin to do.

I ought to get the bike out but may not.

@Mo1959 @dave r @Dave7 hopefully things are improving day by day.

My Good Lady is better than she was when she came home and we're getting used to the situation and establishing a routine, the casualty in this appears to be my cycling, it looks like I'm going to have to take a break, how long for I don't know, I'm looking to get out if I can, but I'm unlikely to get the chance.

Maybe have to get an indoor setup? Although if you’re anything like me, indoors just isn’t the same.

I think just being in your own home and away from the constant activity you get in hospitals helps. As to the cycling as situation improves I’m sure you’ll be able to squeeze a ride in .
I know from my own situation I need to get out sometimes . I call it Velo Therapy.
(edit). Oh no first wisps of sleet .

I've had indoor setups before, the turbo is still in the shed, between 1993 and 2000 I had a regular winter training routine in place, after my close encounter with angina in 2008 I went back to training in winter for a couple of years, and after my heart attack in 2016 I did the same, at the moment I don't feel I want to go back to the turbo.
