Bovver boots

All I wanted was a decent cup of coffee and a restful breather on today's bike ride. I was wearing my boots to see if they would be too hot to wear in September to pound the streets of Istanbul.

Not asking much or so I thought. I cycled the very few miles to the local reservoir where I had spotted a coffee van. Bought the coffee - threw it away. Then sat looking at the view until 1. the brush cutter started up close by. 2. An argument blew up amongst some women(not young ones either) which included one setting her dog on the other's dog! I was beginning to feel grateful we didn't live in a gun-totting country or else I would be diving for cover.

So back on the back and home. A few chores and now out to the hammock - I'll mix my own drink and woe betide any bird that starts tooting too loudly!
