The weather today looks promising Gary. I'm not sure about Wednesday but then I haven't checked. A quiet week ahead for me. Taking Mrs Admin to see Occupational Therapist this afternoon, he's helping us with equipment to make her life a bit easier. I've a new screen coming for the bike, so I'll need to test that at some point

We have a lot happening in the house. We finally go around to revamping our bedroom, eight years after saying we would! So redecoration was finished over the weekend, new carpet tomorrow, new bed and wardrobes on Friday. Hopefully the council will be collecting the old bed this week too.

Our dog Jemima is having health problems, this time a bad eye ulcer. She's in danger of losing the eye, which with her other health issues might be the end of the line. So eye drops are being applied religiously to try to save the eye. Another vet visit this evening....

Apart from that excitement, its a work week....

Ah yes. I'll be thinking of him today. Still miss him here with his bonkers sense of humour.

Morning all. We have the promise of no rain today - hooray! I have a job for someone this morning so I'll get the bike out to go.

Weekend is nearly upon us; what's everyone up to?

No real plans, Gary - just pottering around. Hopeful of a spin on the bike if the weather dries up at some point.

I have a horrible feeling I may have to go shopping for new biking trousers... My clothes seem to have been shrinking recently (cough) and I've been putting off trying my riding kit on for the first time in five months.

Morning all. Well, I got round my jobs and errands on the bike yesterday and the bike stayed clean. Bonus! Sunshine and showers here today so the bike may well stay put.

I have a few things to get done at home anyway. Onion sets need planting, a few household chores need doing, and I’m having a go at making sourdough bread for the first time. It’s a bit of a long winded process what with getting a starter going, then the ferment, then the dough, all over the course of two days. We’ll see if it’s worth the effort when it’s ready to eat.

Morning Gary. The weather seems to have decided it's mid-February again here: cold, raining and blustery. Good job I had a 50-mile spin on the bike yesterday.
