I got prepared for a bike ride several times today but as I did so the drizzle started so I eventually abandoned my plans.
I've felt very subdued all day - it's the damp and grey.

Ha ! Ha !
Nice and hot/warm here. But cooler at night. The colder nights are probably finished and the heat will build and build.
The local weather station reports 30 deg feeling like 35 and 35 expected at 3pm.
Regards Mr Smug.
PS no rain expected for a couple of months..Then the odd thunderstorm then more!

We thought the Portuguese public celebrations were noisy... !
They're subdued, compared to their Andalusian neighbours.
Our ears are still fizzing and popping.
We were outside from 8 to 11.30.
Luckily the temperature remained a calm 12 degrees.
An outdoor feast of Sea bass and beer, in the chaotic aftermath of the parade, was punctuated by the noisiest fireworks display, we've ever heard. Loosened a lot of earwax..!
The town is lovely and flat, making walking easy. On the way back to the hotel, the temperature dropped to 10 degrees... So we were forced into a tapas bar, to warm up. Jenny had her 3rd glass of beer... A personal best, I had a Fino Sherry, of course, to wash the tapas down.. And the nub end of a bottle of brandy... As we were leaving, more punters were coming in.
15 degrees, sun rising, streets deserted.. it's a public holiday .

In Hertfordshire it's about 6°C with patches of blue up above.
Yesterday I failed to get out and do battle with the elements despite the best efforts of Mr Motivator (Chris, Edina).
So today I've been out for a ride around the lanes and thoroughly enjoyed myself. A slightly longer distance of 43 km at a, for me, reasonable average speed of 18.6 kph. At this stage of the get-fit programme I'm happy with that.
As the ride progressed the wind built and at times it was quite 'interesting'.

Sitting in the dentist's, having been attacked by an olive stone.
I thought my fish was gritty, but it was a filling going AWOL.
No pain, but an echo when I talk.
13 degrees, 16 max.

It was dry, grey and about 7°C this morning. So I set off on the Brompton in a north-westerly direction with the intention of cycling up to Dunstable Downs. As I progressed the wind built until, on arrival at the National Trust centre, it was quite gusty. The view down and across Bedfordshire from the futuristic ventilation inlet for the Trust building was pretty dismal:



....so I had a banana and a drink then set off on the return journey.
I suspect that I was the last high-sided Brompton allowed down the back slope of the Downs today.
