    Got up in the night at sungod o'clock and the moon was as bright as anything.
    ...or as bricht as ocht, depending on where you live.

    Today: chores and wood stacking and food shopping but Tricky and Shorty won't be back to school until Wednesday. It's been a long haul.

    I guess other BBers are at work. That's good 'cos they will be contributing to gross gdp and paying income tax.

    Yes and maybe ;)

    Way too early start for my 'park and ride' commute but at least it didn't rain on me and it was light when I got to the office. Now powering through the morning with the help of coffee and Scotch eggs.

    A cold wet start to the day which meant double snooze button abuse.
    Swimming in an hour or so, probably a cold wet run later.
    On the up side, its snowing in the mountains instead of the warm wet stuff washing away the base snow.

    Ridey on the soggy roads. I must have put the bike away wet in December, because I couldn't turn the pedals this morning. Much gt85, scrubbing and wet lube freed it up though. Must replace chain at some point.

    Decent walk with the hounds and hours of work fun already.

    Hours left and then a run

    One down, one for the road. I needed to keep some space for 800g of cottage pie. Buuuurp.

    Seized up now. Busy morning finishing off the mega-haircut of the big birch tree out front, hard stuff all done, some minor cosmetics to finish off. BIG pile of debris to process, salvage wood for the stove in future, bag up the brash, many tip runs to come.

    Paused for lunch / let showers pass through; body gone all RMT on me. There will be a hot soak laterz.

    I like that :)

    Also reminded me of this 'Young Ones' scene.
