We have a pick up truck parked outside 4 doors down. Since 5am this morning it's alarm has been going off every minute or more. It attracted a note by 7am, another by about 10am, 2 more by lunchtime and the alarms are still going off.

Mention no names but someone has been out with huge cutters, but it seems the alarm has it's own battery...
But it will have a fuse, so it the alarm also flashes the headlights then replacing a bulb with some tin foil...

Watched last weekends BTCC, had a kip, mowed the lawn, sorted out some plants in pots, deadheaded the roses, had a BBQ and fed our unexpected guest.

I went to catch the bus this morning at 06:30 BST.
No bus.
No explanation.
No offer to refund my ticket money.
Nada.

I went sailing instead, and had a cheese and ham roll.

I've just fed a baby bat and poured myself a gin and soda. With lime juice, since it's Sunday.

I might have a knurly knight after all that fun.

Surprised you didn’t go on a 11 hour walk through rock and ravine type scenery when the bus didn’t turn up……

It's the 30th June here at 53°N, I'm sat indoors watching the F1 highlights, and I've just put on a fleece to ward off the chill.

That'll be Global Warming in action then.

Morning, it is morning isn't it? coffee
The human brain is an amazing thing, and a fking nightmare in equal measures, awoke at 0240 due to my annoying nasal drain and promptly spent the rest of the night dozing and waking and worrying about stuff I need to do with regards to sorting out my dad giving up his flat and worrying about the fact that I signed the contract for his care which implies we'll cover the costs if the council stop paying, now I'm sat here tired, fed up and still worried.

Morning team. Welcome to July and indeed another Monday. I think Snoopy reflects many of our moods this morning due to overactive brains and light interventions.

Gud moaneve!

Today, I will be mostly in the company of my first-born, and for part of the time will be firing cricket (practice*) balls at him. For the rest of the time I will be doing steppage, and probably washing my car.

A packed day ahead, moustache!



*Same size and weight as a normal cricket ball, but with dimples like a golf ball. The bowling machine can be cranked up to 95mph, but as he's never likely to face Mark Wood or Jofra Archer, we keep it to around 60-65mph, the kind of pace that club bowlers can generate, although they all think they're much quicker. The cricket centre is on the outskirts of the Peoples' Republic of Basinstoke**, but it's a nice drive if you know the back roads.

**A few years ago there was a movement to re-name Basingstoke "Amazingstoke". It never really took off, because people thought that it was a stupid idea, on account of Basingstoke being a sthole, regardless of how it's dressed up.

My cat left me alone until 7.10am
Almost a record
I almost think I prefer a 4am clawing because at least I can go back to sleep
