The Thursday diary! Awoken by a very loud sneeze in my ear. I thought it was Mr CD, but it was the cat sounding very human indeed! Another bright , sunny morning. I really felt quite good.
The usual routine again this morning....park full of 'exercisers' today and very loud birdsong. Some days I'm just not so aware of it, but this morning very loud or maybe just happy birds or even more birds than normal? Other days I see a profusion of squirrels but not so many today.
Back at the house, a bit of a general tidy round, answered some emails, then went outside to have some lunch in the sunshine. I was greeted by a friendly 'hello' from the window cleaner,
, so sadly had to decamp inside whilst he went about his cleaning.
A magnificent delivery today! Some weeks ago Mr CD broke his racing bicycle. It was pretty old but according to His Nibs 'great quality'. However he came off it some weeks ago and bent the wheel so badly it could not be repaired. Being so old he could not replace the wheel and he even eyed up my bicycle to cannibalise it for parts! Unfortunately
.... this was not possible. Anyway he ordered a smart new bike online and we have all been awaiting the delivery. It caused us much amusement the other day when a very small light weight box was delivered from the bike company and inside was just a water bottle! We all wondered where the rest of it was. Anyway, sounds like it is a great success and he is pleased as punch. At least someone is happy.
Not much else to report. I reorganised my shoes and nicks drawer. Huzzah. Baked spuds for tea, because quite frankly I'm devoid of dinner ideas at this stage. Quite depressed after the 5:00 propaganda team were on, and of course on hearing Nicola Sturgeon's message.
This evening also heard of the death of a friend's sister of CV19. She wasn't particularly old but did have underlying health problems.
Participated in 'the clap'.
What news from everyone else?
Stay safe!
CD
