@ThatFloWoman It was a beautiful out - nice and cool for the dog but the promise of some warmth later.

@BJRevell Soon going out with the dogs. We are just deciding on river versus lanes this morning.

Morning do walk views

@MercerCait Well I am still doing a day per week which I am enjoying as a contrast..

@BJRevell You end up wondering how you ever had time to work!

The outside beckons.

@ThatFloWoman Morning Flo!

@BJRevell A grand vista you have there. Morning Brad.

Dog!

@MercerCait I am indeed - and loving it!

@BJRevell Are you now semi retired?

@MercerCait Bon voyage!

Wheels about to turn for Skye- just me and the hound. This was the croft yesterday. Now forecast rain for a week 🙄

Beautiful morning for a dog walk. The blossom on the horse chestnut is spectacular.

@MercerCait I prefer the old English customs. As one of my father’s friends used to say: “Hooray, hooray for the first of May, hedge bottom dicking starts today!”

@MercerCait Quelle surprise!

@BJRevell A friend told me it’s not on display !

@MercerCait Happy Birthday Cait! Have a wonderful day and a glass or two of something zesty and refreshing…

And so it rolls round again .. cartwheeling in Skye OTD 10 years ago. I’d probably break my wrist if I tried that now 🙁

@ThermopylaeRIP Got a lift down to Twickenham once in one of those to watch the rugby. I sat in the back and the leg room was simply huge (and I’m 6ft 5in). Very nice motor.

@ThermopylaeRIP Not sure. The thing I find with classical music is to experience it live. We’re quite lucky as the Philharmonia play at the De Montfort Hall 5 or 6 times a year. It’s a real treat to be able to catch an orchestra of that quality without having to trek to London.

@ThermopylaeRIP I have the recording by John Williams and caught him performing it at the Proms many years ago. It is so passionate and redolent of Spain.

@fenlandflo Had a 2cm splinter of carbon fibre in his thumb - acquired during rowing training… Haven’t seen him this morning yet. Suspect his biggest grumble will be not being able to row for a few days…

@BJRevell Oh dear, I hope everything is alright. That sounds like quite the night.

Lovely morning for taking your tea outdoors and listening to the birds singing.

@MercerCait Cannot start the day without a cup of English breakfast tea. Disappointingly conventional in my hot drink choices. Tea first thing, coffee around 9am and maybe again at 11am (decaf this time). Tea only in the afternoon.

"After a cup of tea [two spoonfuls for each cup, and don't let it stand more than three minutes,] it says to the brain, "Now, rise, and show your strength..." Jerome K. Jerome, Three Men in a Boat

@MercerCait Absolutely. We are as one on this…

I’ll never forgive Nestlé for getting rid of Kit Kat’s inner silver wrapper. The tactile pleasure of drawing your fingernail down the silver foil. I just wouldn’t bother eating one now.
