So after reports of storms doing untold damage, I set off early for my usual three mile walk/jog along the canal towpath and noticed the wind had blown a few wheelie bins over…
At 13 degrees C I decided on shorts and running shoes and it turned out to be an excellent effort in the dry conditions, and knocking a minute off my recent times…A few sticks and branches to avoid that had blown down in the night, and I could have surfed on the waves that were rolling down the canal. So yes…A bit windy…
A trip out to Gainsborough yesterday with some friends. Christmas lights were good, but not many shops. We spent the day in the ‘Marshall Yard’ a sort of small shopping precinct in a reclaimed industrial area. There were some nice places to eat though…A small hick up occurred as I went to pay at the ‘pay-and-display’ machine…After taking my place in the queue and finally arriving at the machine…I forgot my registration number…and had to move aside…
As soon as I gave my place up, the number had permeated to the surface of my mind so I returned to the back of the queue, only to find the machine had printed it’s last ticket and was now ‘Out Of Order’!..
