    Started sunny sunny sunny. No sign of a black hole but there are grey clouds on the horizon.

    Both girls woke up grumpy and 'tired'. That's what you get for giving them an active, busy long weekend. Parenting, sigh.

    Beans is on a very important assignment in the hedge. He's not to be distracted or disturbed.

    Must sell some stuff on fleabay.

    We've got tons of the stuff if you want to pedal over and get some.

    Matching supply and demand is a bit of a problem here.

    Coolio, Iโ€™ll just pop my soggy bike back on and nip over. Will you still be there at 7pm?

    I need milk too, can you drop some off on your way back seanoconn?

    Everything is a bit blurred after drinking for the queen for most of last week.

    Was hoping for a dry week, but away with work this week so no chance.

    Long weekend and an early start for me in the gym this morning.
    Might attack the decking later this evening as Mrs HD is out running with the girls.

    En autobus en route my favourite Eye Hospital, for a change. Scans, pics and verdict. Which will more of the same, rinse and repeat.

    Added: well now, walk to station, train, bus, arrive at reception bang on time. Then get told my appointment is not here, my 'favourite' place like wot been coming to for years now, it's not in The City at all but in a totally different town. Eh?

    Perhaps the person who phoned me to fix the appointment should have mentioned the location change? Or followed up the conversation with an email / letter to give me a clue...? Erse. Now hanging about hoping they can fit me in here.

    Edit #2: They have fitted me in, which is a relief. While I was waiting, a woman arrived pushing her 90yo dad in a wheelchair, and yes same issue, wrong location. But they had received a confirmation letter with no mention of location change. Awks.

    I phoned up to chase up an appointment I was expecting and they said they'd sent me one and I hadn't turned up so they took me off their list.

    The hospital sent the letters to my old address that I'd moved from 6 years previously, even though the referral from the GP had my current address on it.

    I quite enjoyed the weird, cool, murky/mistiness on the hills earlier.

    Made up for censored day in the office for many reasons.

    Foxes, at worst.

    Pick us up a case of San Miguel? The imported kind, not the British brewed stuff.

    On your way up here, stop in Preston and my mate Budgie (Weegie boy) will lend you a jacket.
