I only just saw this - thanks for reminding me!...

Morning all
Overcast but dry out, slept in until around 6am, so a foreshortened walk has been had.
Noticed that the waterbutt I use to top up the pond was full, so am currently topping up the pond. Need to remember to turn that off later - someone remind me please!

Some overnight rain, but a pleasant walk-in the dry earlier. The dark clouds seem to have passed and I'm hearing we're in for a good weekend.

One that you may have to explain to the youngsters....
I lost my pizza wheel, so I ended using a Bryan Adams CD.
Cuts like a knife.

When Siri calls you Shirley instead of your real name, check your phone isn't in airplane mode.

The postman told me this morning he’s off to Spain tomorrow, so I asked him if he was going to Parcelona.
He didn’t laugh.
Maybe I didn’t say it right. The key to a good mailman joke is all in the delivery.

The flooring for the shed arrived yesterday. 150kg roll of it for the main shed, 20kg of tiles for the mower shed.
Back is a bit sore, sack trolley might be a bit bent.
Drizzling at 5:30, but was dry for most of our walk.

Big dog walk done. (Not the Max is a big dog, but that the walk was over 10,000 steps). The rain that was falling at 4:30 had stopped by 5:15, and the sky is clearing now.

TFIF, etc.
CBS, etc.
Roof is on shed. Tonight (or maybe tomorrow), the felt will go on the roof, then the solar panel.

5:30 dog walk dodged the showers, then when we got back in I moved the 14 shed roof panels down the garden in preparation for them to go on tonight, if I get the last two trusses built.
Ready for a rest.

Which bridge? If you mean the Tamar Bridge, that people willingly pay to use just to get out of Cornwall, no, I can't see that. If you mean the Clifton Suspension Bridge, no I can't see that one either. Neither can I see the Millau Viaduct nor the Öresund Bridge (as featured in Broen)....

If you lot are all coming down to the West Country, I'd better get out.
South Africa in September for a couple of weeks, that's all we've booked so far....

Light ran at 5:30, then it dried up until just after we got in from our walk.
Shed walls were put up last night, and the plan is to get the roof trusses on this evening, then the roof on tomorrow night.

Sunrise was 5:30am, and we had a very pleasant early morning walk. Sun still shining with no hint of a breeze, and a farmer is muck spreading somewhere nearby.

Currently reading: 28 page instructions on building a shed (excluding the roof, which has its own 8 page book)

CBS, etc and yesterday's strong northerly wind has dropped.
There was ground frost in some of the fields, but our walk was pleasant.
More shed building this evening if the weather stays like this.
