Woke to find a large stone on the patio Looking over the cctv it appears to have been dropped from a great height by a crow! Moments before there was a pigeon in the same spot the stone landed, which got me thinking, have crows developed the ability to used weapons in their daily search for food?
Little borders ride out...but chilly with a top temp of 2° roads very greasy, but n i ce to get out and see how the satnav works out
Took youngest boy to play football. He did quite well, he no Ronaldo but he’s quite tall and fast, gets a good tackle in then just gives the ball to a team mate. He got an assist too so he was buzzing. This is under 12, 9 a side. Which brings me to a problem I’m no doubt going to have, Sunday’s is bike riding day for me. Lady Vader takes them to Karate on Monday, Tuesday (for now anyway but this will change) Thursday and Saturday mornings. I’m normally working away in the week but will do the Saturday when I’m not working, she thinks I’ve got to do Sunday football as she does enough. What about my bike riding day? Some of his games will be over Evesham and Malvern way so that’s 1/2 day gone. I’m heading for some trouble I think.
Popped out for a ride as it’s really mild here, roads are still greasy and surprised to lock up front wheel on approach to a roundabout early on journey, served as a good wake up call.
Born in Chiswick, not far from Stamford Bridge, I figured by supporting Chelsea I was supporting my local team. My Scottish Man Utd-supporting dad said if I wanted to support my local team I should support Brentford. I just found out Brentford are in the Premier League. There's an uncanny chill coming out of the ground, and a pig just flew past the window.
No it won’t be up for sale. I was without a bike for a while when the kids were born, that’s not happening again.
Been up my local gym, first time in a gym in over a decade 30 mins on a concept2 rower followed by 30 mins of stretching and abs. Just checked my stats and Concept 2 say I’m great for an old fart. Going to try for 10k in under 1 hour before…..end of Feb….
Good luck. I need to get back, but the thought of all those gym bunnies and muscle Marys fills me with dread
Today we are going to Cannon Hall farm (of various Yorkshire farm/vet programmes fame) with brother in law and his wife, and their 2 year old grandson
Not tempted to go swimming instead bradders nice none load bearing exercise, I used go last thing of an evening hardly anyone in there and certainly no much to see. You’ll soon be up to 1km swims 40 lengths of a 25 metre pool broken down into smaller bite size chunks. Eventually working yourself up to in one go, set yourself an achievable target and build from there. I ignore the gym bunnies and muscle bounds after all they’re only up there for their own needs. It’s not like i’m forced to engage with them in any meaningful way. I’m only up there to keep myself fit and healthy and rowing fits that agenda perfectly.
I'm envisaginging 'The Funky* Chicken'.** * 'Funky' ** 'Chicken' Not sent via my aPhone *** *** A 'phone'
The postman dropped this one through the box this morning, not a lot of money these days but better than a kick in the balls me thinks.
