sunday with a mac-10 on a sling

Shoot sleep after having too many tumbles running in the snowy hills, head, knees and elbows mucked up 🙄

unsure what today holds but need to sort wood and wash cars, but more importantly I need to meet some friends in the pub

[Full metal jacket?]

Yep, still blowing here too but not too badly.

Security light I noticed was stuck in the on state at 2 30am ish. So had to sort that. Basically foliage that had blown around and ended up near the sensor so was an easy sort but still an unwelcome thing to do at silly o'clock.

City 0, the Spuds 4 !

Catch up on CX later. My porker needs washing too TLW so pop up at lunchtime, cheers mate. Took her for a post operative spin yesterday when the weather relented at about 2pm. Sun popped out and the wind dropped. She's luverly.

Beans got wormer on the neck yesterday so I am the devil despite Salmon Nibbles compensation. Today gets worse for him as Mrs P usually gets the ironing board out. It's the end of the world that thing.

Coffee...

Laters

Dry today but very gusty, so going to walk the hounds round the village as there aren't many trees to drop branches on us. May chance a short ride down a route with plenty of high hedges as wind breaks as I haven't been out for ages. Also need to get old dishwasher out of the house and down to the garage later on before sorting a tip trip.

Morning

It might have stopped raining here but it’s looking rather dark and it’s a touch on the blowy side. So later will be hazarding a trip to the garage to do some climbing and if it hasn’t started racing again. I might dig up some gravel to see if I can find any more manholes.

And I am Home. Bro collected me yesterday pm, and I'm so happy to be released from the confines.

So so weak. Moving around more, assisted with crutches at times 😳, so I am on recovery. Have physios exercise programme to follow. Going to be a while.

Body still v fussy about intakes of foods: need to get the cals in, do have prescribed nutrient and vitamin rich Fortijuice to take, so this morning included IrnBru and an SIS gel.

Bro here for a few days working out how to arrange the house for me being housebound and mobility limited for n days/weeks, like having one's manservant attending.

And that completes today's news.

Glad to hear you are home Loon. Hospitals are so draining for your soul. Don't go over doing it mind. Listen to your body.

Hope the recovery goes well.

Just been checking our Velux windows. We had a bit of leakage over the last couple of years. Gave them a really good clean and tweak over the late summer and they are all bone dry at bottom corners. Cheered me up no end especially with the given weather.

Managed a breezy blast on the bike, headwind on the way out was quite trying but flew back. Only a few little unplanned sideways swerves when caught by the odd gust but the high hedges came in pretty hard for most of the time. Feel better for that.
