Hugs ITG and hope mum is soon back to normal

Road are not great when cycling most place in the UK sadly.

Been to the seaside for a paddle on the bikes, now back settled in the shade after a lovely pit stop in a gorgeous pub, which was serving a certain nice gin 😁

Hugs to ITG and anyone else who needs them.

Have been AWOL so not sure what everyone's been up to.

Last night the car went all screechy so took it to the garage. Cancelled today's 1-1 lesson until Friday and have been wandering about. Now to transfer savings out and go and collect the car, via the post office. May as well get a good walk in. Cars are great but when they go wrong they kick you right in the wallet

Hope all is well with your Mum, ITG. Somewhere I read that when people get old they may not feel thirsty even when they are dehydrated. I make a point of drinking plenty of water if I think I "ought" to need it, whether I feel thirsty or not.

Pre-breakfast run this morning, before it got too hot and while the shadows were still fairly long.

Having the long shadows this morning was very helpful as the woman in front of me saw my shadow and moved to side before I had to give her scare at 5.30am

I am jealous of your resolve in getting out of the door before 5.30am LG. I keep promising myself (and failing) to do likewise
