Tuesday 2nd 36F, bright but windy. Sun or no sun. Pick your weather forecaster. Eeny, meany, miney, mo. Warming slowly but the easterly wind is rather chilly. Walked briskly to the lanes. Busy all day.
And don't call me "blossom!" 😏
Wednesday 3rd 45F, rather grey, but not so cold or windy. Some sunshine or no sunshine. Showers possible. Walked via the spray tracks to the woods and back along the marsh. Not a single bird on the water! It was determinedly grey until after lunch then rain.
Thursday 4th 43F, bright and breezy with a milky sky. The Danish forecasters are split down the middle again. How badly can both be wrong? There is a story on health and diet on the BBC News website. There is a 10:1 difference in mortality between countries with good compared to those with poor diets.
Nuts, grains, veg and fresh fruit are good. Salt, sugar, alcohol, meat and processed foods bad. Lies, damned lies and statisticians trying to make the morning headlines. Me fad, you fad, we all fad together.
Last week we were being told that red wine, beer and coffee were all good for you. Now you might just as well smoke 10 fags. Just remember not to drink your red wine in the same room as the children. That would be as bad as having measles parties. Or not washing your hands frequently. It's all Typhoid Mary worship these days! Talk about turning a living legend on its head!
Walked to the lanes as a second class citizen. "Peds" are only safe on the verges. Which means traipsing through the twigs, branches and tree trunks left behind by the tractor driven, hedge slashers. Lots of Chaffinches calling today. The sky has turned grey now.
A shopping ride in the afternoon. An easterly wind hindered me going. Helped on the way back. I ran out of higher gears on the small chainwheel on a climb as I went over 19mph and had to change to the large chainwheel. Only 7 miles.
