Sunday 14th 52F/11C [7.45] Overcast. Another wet and windy day.
Up at 7am after earlier motivational failures. 65F/18C in the room. 56F/13C in the greenhouse. Unusually cool after unusually warm weather earlier in the year. Still coughing.
12.10 Torrential rain. It lasted for about five minutes. I spent the morning On YouTube.
And the afternoon. Not even a nap!
Still coughing. Still getting dizzy. I shall discuss this with the heart department at the hospital tomorrow.
The removal of the rails and sleepers of the long disused railway has begun. The route was part of the national rail network until 1966. When
passenger traffic ended. Some goods traffic still ran until the early
1980s.
The track bed will be converted to a cycle and walking path. Providing a safe connection between Assens and Glamsbjerg. Three different companies will be responsible for particular stretches between certain villages. The route runs east to Ebberup before turning north. The old station buildings still exist. As does the remains of a barrier, from the distant past, on the road leading out of Ebberup. There would once have been a warning bell struck by a hand wound clock mechanism.
Once completed, the cycle path will have a total length of 17.5km. There are numerous schools [at least 8] along the route. Which will gain from a safer connection. There are some main roads to be crossed. Which will have to be safeguarded using light controlled barriers. The path will take about six months to construct. It is expected to be opened by December of 2026.
Whoops I haven't taken the recycling bin along! Done.
Dinner was sardines on toast.
