Some unplanned drizzle has arrived. This isn't filling me with enthusiasm for leaving the tent...

Something big with jet engines has also arrived...

Back from a pootle to Midlenhall (which is now a commute).  We've discovered that barakta literally has ants in her pants.

Barakta and I are back from a ride to Prickwillow (featuring comedy off-roading and rather a lot of sun).







They've finally repaired the eleventy million potholes in the Prickwillow Road.

There is a tiny hamlet near Newtown yclept Llanmerewig. I have lodged a petition that it be twinned with Dunwich.

Now back from the long ride and this page reminds me of the miles in the sun, seeing friendly faces, bikes, cake, gear cables (thanks again Alan) so I can see through the rain, the work and the broken freezer to better times.  ;D

Thanks for taking the cable off my hands jayjay, it saved me from carrying it back.  ;) ;)  It was great to see you and all the other forum members once again. I for one enjoyed the new venue.

Bit of a puzzle as I only recall a bit of drizzle on Saturday morning about 10ish.

I think they were just  the most reluctant to dry of a set of clothes that had been laundered.

They were the thick ones and the waterproof ones that had failed to dry in the shaded corner by our tent so required a Circe washing line to follow the sun  :D
