Afternoon all
Grey but still warmish.
Dog walked, along with picking up some eggs from the small holding along the way that has lots of rescued ex-battery hens now living the free range life.
Shopping done.
Bike prepped for a long but local ride tomorrow. 200km all within 20km of home to keep my Audax RRTY on track.
Time for a sit down with a cuppa before thinking about what to cook for dinner. Could be ribs, could be curry, could be kofte's. Haven't decided yet."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

The thermostat is properly on the wonk. It keeps reverting to default factory settings
HWMBO may be helping me sort out a Tado set up next time he's down if the landlady doesn't want to do anything about it. Easy to revert back to her broken kit when I eventually move out.Comment

HWMBO and I took a walk up to the high street for provisions. It was quite busy considering no-one is meant to be out if they don't need to be.
Felt it was rather cheeky that M&S were properly open rather than just the food hall part.
On me revealing that tomorrow is stir up Sunday HWMBO decided he was going to make a big Christmas pudding and essentially empty out my dried fruit stash. I have to feed it brandy until he returns towards the end of December.Comment

A clean kill, thankfully.
