Sunday 29 August 2021

Sunday ride with our son.

I got up at 6 oclock and made a pot of tea after I had put on a load of washing. H was the next one up so I poured the tea and we had our breakfast. I sat and read my book till our son came down and then I dressed so I could hang the washing out. H decided he wouldnt come out with us as he doesnt wasnt to strain his heart and thought we might be going too fast for him so he had a gentle ride upstairs. I think he did right because when he and I did this ride last week it took us 2 hours and 20 minuits, today we did it in 2 hours and we did even more of it off road which made it even harder.When we got home I got lunch and relaxed with a bottle of beer. we had a B B Q this evening, ribs, kebabs, sausages, corn on the cob and potatoes.It was nice, the men also had cooked bananas. I had a bath and we watched a film, I didnt like it! It was about 3 young people robbing a blind man. When it was over I went up to watch country file and then Vera

I got up at 6.10 and made a pot of tea. H didnt get up till 7.15.I had my eggs and courgette and then we had a small coffee. I was just drinking my coffee when I got a message from my sister in law, ( H's sister) saying that her husband had died this morning. Sad news.Luckily she has all her family living around her. H has a spanish lesson today, his teacher is back from her holiday in North Wales. So I got ready and when he left I got ready and go out on my bike. It was really hard work, I rode almost 20 miles into a strong head wind. The tail wind bits were nice but as they were on the way back, by that time after struggling into the gale I was too knackered to take advantege of it and just freewheeled. Still I was pleased with my ride, 35.35 miles. I saw a buzzard, a kestril,a rabbit, some squirells and all the red arrows came right over my head. When I got home H was back and had had a nice lesson. We had a coffee, soup and a toasted hot cross bun. We watched the bike race in spain and it was in Cordoba where we have been and I even saw a cafe that we had been in. We watched the end of tipping point, had our baths and then dinner, salmon with giant jacket potatoes and buttered green beans. Its work tomorrow.

Saturdays post. A day late because we had a power cut and I was unable to write it.

We have had a really nice day. We had a bit of a lay in which is a good start. We had our breakfast, I put on a load of washing and we did our weekly shop. After I had put it all away Ihung out the washing and emptied the dishwasher we had a coffee and a small egg custard. I did a bit of general clearing up and H got our bikes out of the garage. We rode to Reepham station the short way which is almost 10 miles. H went into the cafe and orderd the coffees and cakes, when he came out I asked if we were having clotted cream with our scone and he said no they have sold out already! (I cant help wondering if this is my fault as I put a comment on trip adviser saying they were so good!)So we had cheese scones with butter and also a chocolate brownie with our usual coffee. I dare not say how goodn the brownie was because there wouldnt be any of those left if I do. We then rode home the long way via the loop so our ride was 23 and a quarter miles. The temperature was perfect and we both really enjoyed it. I put the bikes away and we had a bath right away because we were going to our daughters and son in laws for a B B Q. Its his birthday. It was a lovely afternoon and evening, all their family were there so we got to see our eldest granddaughter who is pregnant and only got 11 weeks to go,her husband, our grandson who was in charge of the B B Q and did a fantastic job, specially with a huge rack of ribs, our youngest granddaughter who had to wotk but was home in time for tea and our great granddaughter who is 2 and in charge of everybody! We were welcomed with otange G & Ts with a slice of orange and yummy, Nova had everyones otange then calling G G (thats me) come into the garden then grandad, come out here etc etc. She walks up to sirree and says sirree play barr barr black sheep. What would my parents think of such things all we had was a wind up gramaphone.She is such a lovely little girl. Anyway we had a really nice time, a lovely meal with birthday cake, loads to drink! and suck nice company.When we got home I went up to watch tv because H was watching u tube rubbish. I came down when he came to bed, started to watch a film and fell asleep in the adds. when I woke up to blog I thought I had gone blind wverything was pitch black! The phones were off, tv, all the small stand by lights and digital clocks etc. total blackness. I felt my way to the window looked outsise and could see that there was no light in anyones house soi knew it wasnt just us fused. In a house over the way I could see a lighter flame moving across the room and then a warm glow as a candle was lit. This morning its back on so now I am off to reset things, oven clock boiler microwave etc.

Yesterday I didnt bother to blog because I did nothing all day so I had nothing to write about. Today I went to work and had to work with Andy till coffee break. First we had to hunt for 40 bunches of beetroot. We have been over the bed so many times and the beetroot arent growing as fast as the boss sells them. Next it was carrots, I was glad I was bunching them with Andy because they all had to be fotked up and the ground was so hard he struggled to get the fork in and he weighs a lot more than me. We did 156 bunches and went down for break. After break I had to pick tomatoes and I did 4 trays then spent the rest of my time weeding. When I got home H made me a coffee and I had a banana. We watched the bike race, had our baths and I cooked dinner. We had mince with onions, peas, tomatoes and herbs pouted over pasta and topped with grated cheese.It was very tasty. I dont have to work again till Friday but tomorrow, all being well, we are seeing our great granddaughter.

I was going to vacum but H said we should get ready to go out on our bikes ! So I will clean up tomorrow. We had a nice ride, very steady because H is being careful not to strain himself. When we got home I put the bikes away and got the washing in while H made the coffee. On our ride along the track on the way home H suddenly stopped dead and I almost ran into the back of him and my chain came off! The reason he stopped was because a grass snake was crossing our path. It was beautiful and at least 3 feet long. We havent seen one for years. For lunch we had cheese and biscuits with pickle.At 3 oclock we had a glass of wine and at 4 oclock a cup of tea. We had a shower and I cooked dinner. WE had belly pork, chips and mushrooms is was yummy.
