Friday 14th 53-58F, light breeze, bright start but cloudy with a risk of showers. A 40 minute walk dodging mobile phones permanently welded to drivers' ears. A bird of prey was calling for breakfast as it circled overhead. A minor political party is suggesting taking 1/3 of fields out of industrial "toxic crop" production and returning it to nature, forestry or climate/socially beneficial use.
An interesting idea but infinitely unlikely to become law. After all, the only people allowed to vote in Danish elections are pig farmers and huge industrialized [toxic] landholders.
How do I know? 250 public water supply boreholes had to be taken out of production this year alone as toxicity levels exceeded those allowed. The Danish Toxic Cocktail parties aren't interested in stopping poisoning so there will be no change.
Late morning ride to the shops against the cross-headwind. Returning with the wind once heavily laden. Only 7 miles as the sky became overcast. It rained heavily in the afternoon. Saturday 15th 53F, bright but very cloudy. Showers possible. Did my usual 40 minute, minimum walk to the lanes. Two large deer were resting against a hedge two fields over. The traffic was light. Busy all day.
Sunday 16th 49F, breezy and bright. Scattered showers or rain possible. I am aching all over from the ongoing building work. Walked to the far woods under a threatening sky. Only a light sprinkle of rain as I returned home. Heard the first shots of the new hunting season.
