Have a good day
WFH
Yoga
WFH
Undecided, might go to the gym
Later is undecided, but probably looking at campers
vans
In the gym listening to PJ Harvey. Bit if a run around day coming up but shouldn't be too bad.
Not a lot else to report at the mo' tbh....
Wfh. Lunch. Wfh.
Mustn't forget to book shower so I can ride and wfw tomorrow.
Stropteen is back for a week to get some peace while revising for her exams. And free food and washing etc. I'm doing the usual with an action packed week ahead...
Off at lunchtime, assuming the un-cracked trains are running as they should, to my favourite Eye Hospital for another set of scans, photos, 3Ds et al in the bad eye. And the wheel goes around again. Life eh.
Yep, soggy out there. I think there's a gap in the rain tomorrow that may satisfy the pedalling urge. I presume this is in anticipation of the volcano?
A whole load of loose ends to tie up today, mundane but simultaneously important.
Blood test Thursday. Always gives me the heebie jeebies.
as i live in the middle of london, there're no long-fast flats/loops, hyde park is useless, and pandemic regent's park is choked with slow/dangerous groups getting in the way, that leaves big ring hill repeats in hampstead/highgate, there's not much traffic first thing
volcano time shouldn't be far off though, april flights canned, may ones sure to follow as spain still closed for non-eu, but looking ok for the backup flights in june, for all the flack they get, ba make it very easy to cancel/rebook

Country hotel of the year multiple times.
Then you can get fit by battling the wind, the hills and the rough roads.
In fact, the hotel sits at the bottom of a long climb so to leave the place, you're heading up.
On the plus plus side, there's miles of very quiet single track roads to discover (whilst negotiating sheep and cattle grids).
Scroll down the page and you'll se a smiling face - that's Tony. He's a cnut but a very good chef.
Dog walked, email censored show going on with work. Weekend had a good ride and bought the car. Zwift later.
Gambling on the Scottish weather, what could go wrong eh
Crudder
CX

Friday swim, got soaked.
Saturday run, got soaked.
Sunday ride, got soaked.
Triathlon is getting on my moobs now.
Rode again this morning though, full on headwind up the vale but at least I missed the rain.
Also brought a suit and shoes in that can stay in work, new lock arriving this afternoon that I can bring in and leave tomorrow so on Wednesday I can start having rides into work. I only live a 10 minute walk away so tend to try to do a 45 minute loop in the mornings when I ride. And I’ll be having a run at the end of the day.
I doubt that even the cut-price Krug will tempt someone as committed to the catching of rays as sungod to holiday in Stranraer...
Today however? Fasting this morning as I was in for the thrill of a whopping great needle or two in the neck, with a dose of radiation on the side.
This was a C4 facet joint block one, to see if they can make any dent on the literal pain in the neck I've had for so many years. Local anaesthetic certainly helped for a few hours, hope the actual cortisone or whatever it was does the same trick for 6 months or so.
Next up, possible foraminal block injection a bit lower down to help with the pins and needles and numbness in the arm.
good luck WS. Remember medicinal vino rosso post procedure.
