Sitting in the wooden office/hut thing (they cal it a chalet ) being bored.
LOADS of works happening so it’s bastard noisy. Boss is making sure he’s anywhere else except the noisy place! And, noise means no one even stops to ask questions
A bit chilly in the shade and a bit burny in the sun!!
At least next week it will be busier - hopefully I’ll know enough to be useful!!

Just getting ready to take a funeral at the crem in a short while. Then back to church to provide a thought for the day at our "Old Folks" club. Then fetch the wife and head to Rochester on the bike for the Summer Party at the Bishop's Palace (ie his home).

One who forgives an affront fosters friendship, but one who dwells on disputes will alienate a friend.
I have the same monitor I think, and it can go portrait in the same way (obviously). Never seen anyone rogue enough to actually do it though, until now!

I digitise rare books so I need a portrait view on my 2nd monitor for QC.
Was getting the lawnmower out of the shed-of-plenty and spied my leccy bike languishing at the back. I’ve been meaning to get back into cycling as part of physio for me knee, so I dug it out! Then spent some time finding the key and charger which we’re in a box marked "bike charger and keys" which I’d moved out of the way several times whilst searching!
Anyway, put the key in and it’s fully charged! Will give it a run later on to see if it’s okay, it should be though as it’s brand new and I only rode it a couple of times! Those bastard car drivers better keep out of my way!!

Thought the leccy bike would be in the camper, useful for getting about the site on and stuff.

That was the intention and the reason I sold my fixed frame one for this foldable one. But we tend to take the dogs with us now so have never used this for its intended purpose. The wife has a folding leccy bike too and I think i'm going to recommission them both and check they fit in the camper storage as last time we went away with the dogs, we were confined to barracks as it was too hot to take the dogs out, so I'm thinking leave the dogs with my Son and then we can take the bikes and whizz around town!
After a very hot ride on a very hot bike I can't complain about finding this beautiful cave to kick back until the ferry in morning. Flip Flop in there for authenticity.
Day off cancelled so that the bosses can go watch the downhill championships in Les Arcs!
But. Life could be worse! There’s some cloud around so when that hides the sun, the wind feels a bit chilly, but, it’s not a bad place to sit and not sunbathe outside for a day!!! I’ve got a book and some crochet so when I get bored of t’internet, I have stuff to do (this Saturday is expected to be quiet, I’m hoping it is cos I’m still a little nervous about doing stuff here solo!!)

MOTHERFUCKA!!!!!
just drying myself down after a refreshing swim and bam!
Felt like a red hot needle had been inserted in my ankle.
Yep, its wasp season! Wife got stung on the hand yesterday, tomorrow the wasp spray comes out and I go genocidal!
Sat with my feet in a bowl of really cold water!!! Here's hoping the physio (not the gorgeous young man sadly) can work out what is making them hurt so much :cross-fingers:

0230, just got to bed. Some fuckwit lorry driver decided to spill diesel along about 3 miles of the A43 at 25 minutes to knock off time!! 4 hours overtime, thank you!!

Maybe visit a doctor as well.
I pretty much know what it is as have suffered it before. I don't walk well because my right foot is completely flat to the floor, so I think I've always compensated. The last year I've probably compensated due to the plate and fear of doing more damage. Now I'm trying to walk properly and not compensate (and further!) and I'm also standing most of the day for work, it's shocked the muscles and some aren't functioning properly.
Physio has helped already (the muscles down the front of both shins were stupidly tight, but also each was at a different level ), but I will add it to the 'list' for the GP in a week or two!!
