Breakfast!

Gym visit ✔️ 20 minutes on the cross trainer, in 5 minute bursts slogs.

We were invited out for breakfast this morning. Well, brunch. We visited Molly the Gorgeous Collie and her mum. And it was a very profitable morning, because not only did we have bacon baps (yum yum) I came away with my old exercise bike!

I’d found it at a skip, donated it to Ann, who used it to bike her 1,000 mile challenge, which is now completed. Meanwhile I’d bought what I thought was a better one - well, easier for me to get on to at least, but there were little things about the new one that I didn’t like (as much as the old one). And so the new one is for sale, and the old one will be reinstated. It also folds up smaller when it needs to be put away.

JR and Archie then went a big long walk through the Hermitage, (photo by JR) while I came home (in the car) with my booty. They’re home now, with Archie narrowly avoiding being attacked by a big husky type dog. In fact, it attacked a wee schnauzer they'd just been talking to! Archie has had a much needed shampoo and shower and smells much better.

We now have a new set of kitchen knives. Within minutes of unpacking them yesterday, I cut my thumb while slicing a bagel. Duh!

I'm missing the Olympic TV coverage.
