Friday and I’m given a list. But first its time to sort the panniers on the bike in daylight. Discover I’d put them on back to front. Relatively easy to sort. Pop in the bike locks and job’s a good’un.
Onto the list. First off I am sent to the doctors to fetch blood forms, pots to piss in and to rearrange the time of the telephone consult. Then to book a bloods appointment, ring the people concerned only to discover I have to book it online. So online I go. Next a trip to the post office to send Christine’s birthday card.
Next to sorting the pedals on the bike. Much easier than I thought it’d be.

Really rather proud of this one, reached the Top 10 of The Big Photo Hunt!
A slightly better day, copped out of the cycle to work. Was too shattered this morning.
Generally feeling like shit today. Don’t know what the fuck is up with me but bottom line is that I’m shattered. Struggle to focus and things aren’t great.
Last day off for a wee while and it’s a busy one. Laundrette day, change pedals day, bake 
Sunday lazy start to the day. Wash up and make breakfast. Nip to the shop and grab a swift pint. Weather is foul. Catch up with the boy in the afternoon, he’s sounding less tin helmety.
Saturday, little light shopping, drink with C at the Tom & Gerry which seems populated by geriatric one armed bandit raiders with loud voices.
Friday, day off, get to spend it with half term bound C. A bit of a mooch round the shops. Lunch in the Gobin. Relief to have a bit of a lie in, lates are really taking it out of me.
Last late of the week and it comes as something of a relief. In early and brew at Kawa’s.
Another late, swift ale at the Swan & Railway on the way home. Delight at finding Doctor Morton’s Duck Baffler, seemed entirely appropriate.
