A Penelope Cruz lookalike sitting opposite me on the train today.

I once had lookalikes of the entire band Haim board a train with me at Paddington. It turned out NOT to be lookalikes!
A good spot.

After walking round Clitheroe today for a couple of hours I went to the YMCA charity shop/store in the town. I felt very tired as I didn't sleep too well and for long enough last night and with the 2 hours of walking I had to have a sit down, so I found a comfy settee and sat myself down. I fell asleep and was there for about 25/30 minutes, without anyone disturbing me. I hope I didn't snore.

Is it just me or can any of you also see an animal in this bird dropping on one of my windows? I can see a dog's face, with 3 dark paws.🤔

Inexplicably, it looks like the guano is on the inside of the glass.
Although looking at the dirt on the seals and the frame, maybe that's not such a surprise!

Yes I'll hold my hand up and admit to being a scruff!🧐 Being an ex window cleaner I always kept my windows clean inside and out, but these days I just can't be bothered.

I bought a mirror yesterday from a charity shop. I've been after a decent sized one for a while as the one I have is only 3 foot high, so I can't get a proper reflection when I'm trying to decide which attire to wear. The other month I saw a nice one in the shop I bought this one from (for a mere 15 quid) , but I couldn't get it in the car I had at the time. I must say, my new to me car's soft top has come in handy on quite a few occasions, especially yesterday!

That feeling when you get off the train and on your bike, and you leave the town and there's the road,stretching into the distance.

think yourself lucky you got out of the racket before too many other folk discovered that you don't need to clean the windows. and the neighbours don't check them out/tut-tut over them.
