Wednesday 24th 37F/2.8C [7.30] It must have been close to a first frost. Another cool, autumn day. With lots of sunshine. The overnight cold has dropped the room temperature to 63F/17C. I am quite comfortable in a fleece jacket over my light jumper. I'll put off lighting the stove until the sunshine ends. Borrow some heat from the greenhouse to boost the indoor temperature later.
Up at 6.50 after dozing for an hour. I woke at 5am but decided it was too early. My hands and wrists are hurting again. Probably from yesterday's ride. I had better stay off the bike today. The holes for the carport foundation blocks need to be finished. Two done, one half done and one untouched. I ran into a tree root in the third hole. Then it was dry and the ground was too hard.
8.50 Back from a walk. Still, a cloudless sky and bright sunshine. The fields are already green. Only a couple of days after ploughing and seed drilling. I chatted with my nice neighbour about his new electric car. As his two small dogs explored the drive. His cat was there too. I was comfortable in my new [recycled] pile lined, fleece jacket.
11.40 57F/14C. I have been outside. Trying to capture images of the sun. My fleece jacket is proving very useful. Perfectly comfortable sitting outside in the shade.
14.30 Back in after capturing some more images of the sun. The routines are coming back to me now. Without the internet I can't unload the pictures from the mini-PC.
17.20 Constant sunshine. Back from the shops in the Morris. Which is still looking as lovely as ever. Thanks to my sister's excellent, and very thorough, valet service. No journey is complete without admiring glances and usually a chat. A vintage Land Rover driver raised his vintage hat to me today.
Dinner was an organic, pork chop, brown organic mushrooms and boiled, organic potatoes.
