Sunday

I GOT UP AT 6.30 AND PUT ON A LOAD OF WASHING. I HAD A CUP OF TEA AND A BOWL OF PORRIDGE FOR BREAKFAST. H MADE US A COFFEE AND THEN HE GOT READY TO RIDE UPSTAIRS. THAT TRAINER HAS BEEN A GODSEND THIS WINTER. THIS MORNING IT WAS FREEZING FOG AND THERE IS NO WAY WE WOULD HAVE GONE OUT ON OUR BIKES. AS SOON AS THE WASHING WAS DONE I PUT IT ALL INTO THE TUMBLE DRIER BECAUSE THERE WAS NO DRY OUTSIDE TODAY. I PUT THE RUBBISH OUT AND FED THE BIRDS. I SAT AND READ MY BOOK FOR A WHILE AND THEN I HAD A TEXT FROM OUR GRANDSON ASKING IF HE COULD BORROW A PAIR OF PLIERS. HE WAS UNLOCKING HIS SHED AND THE KEY SNAPPED IN THE LOCK.HE NEEDED PLIERS TO GET IT OUT AND HIS TOOLS WERE IN THE SHED. I WAS ABOUT TO WALK TO THE POST BOX WITH OUR PHONE BILL AND POST IT SO I SAID I WOULD POP THEM ROUND. FROM HIS I WALKED TO THE POST BOX AND THEN HOME AGAIN TAKING THE SCENIC ROUTE. WHEN I GOT HOME H WAS JUST FINISHING HIS RIDE AND WAS ABOUT TO HAVE A SHOWER SO I FILLED THE KETTLE READY FOR A COFFEE WHEN HE CAME DOWN. I DECIDED I WASNT GOING TO RIDE TODAY BUT THEN I HAD A MESSAGE SAYING OUR YOUNGEST GRANDDAUGHTER HAD BEEN ON A TRAINING BIKE. NEXT OUR OTHER GRANDDAUGHTER DID ALMOST 20 MILES AND OUR DAUGHTER AND SON IN LAW AS WELL! SO I HAD TO CHANGE MY MIND BECAUSE I DIDNT WANT TO BE THE ONLY ONE LEFT OUT. I DID 19.6 MILES IN UNDER AN HOUR. BEFORE I RODE WE HAD OUR LUNCH H HAD SOME OF THE SAUSAGE PIE THAT WAS LEFT OVER AND I HAD S SALAD. OUR NO 1 SON RANG FOR A CHAT AND WE HAD A GLASS OF WINE. I HAD A BATH AFTER MY RIDE AND COOKED DINNER,WE HAD FISH CAKES WITH JACKET POTATOES AND MUSHY PEAS. JUST BEFORE DINNER THE PHONE RANG AND IT WAS MY BOSS, HE SAYS EVERYTHING IS REALLY FROZEN AND HE DOESNT THINK I WOULD BE ABLE TO BUNCH CARROTS OR GET THE LEEKS OUT OF THE GROUND SO THERE IS NO POINT IN ME GOING TOMORROW SO I DONT HAVE TO WORK TILL WEDNESDAY. H MADE ME PUT A BOTTLE OF WINE IN THE FRIDGE FOR TOMORROW SO WE CAN CELEBRATE ME BEING HOME ( ANY EXCUSE). NOW I AM WATCHING D O I.
