Perfect orange rose

I had a very early start to my day this morning - at 02:48! I couldn't get back to sleep so eventually got up two hours later to return to editing my journal article, which is still not finished, alas. (And I am meant to be on annual leave...)

I took two breaks. The first was to ride my exercise bike for an hour in front of another episode of the Antiques Roadshow. The second involved a walk to the library to renew two books then pick up some provisions at the Co-op for this evening and tomorrow. I blipped this rose on the way home.

Tomorrow I have another early start - to catch a train south to Newcastle, then west to Hexham to meet Mummy hazelh and the (precious) Volvo, then drive the pair of us back to Edinburgh.

Exercise today: 1 hour on the exercise bike.
