Friday 3rd February Lunchbox

Breakfast: Bowl of Cornflakes with cold semi-skimmed milk
Also had 2 pieces of toasted sliced granary bread with Olivio spread and a slight covering of raspberry jam.


The Walk to Work

A change of laces on my new shoes (black Doc Martens) made a hell of a difference. They were far thicker and resulted in a tighter grip, which solved the problem of my my heels lifting. (Mrs B tiamo grande tempo!)

There was quite a bit of human traffic, both on foot and on bicycles, along the River Taff Trail this morning. At its widest the path is only about 8 feet, so occasionally congestion can occur, like today.

Sitting on the pebbles at the river's edge below was a women wearing the biggest pair of ear muffs I have ever seen.
The British Bulldog I pass most days was actually running this morning... very impressed by that.

Lunchbox
2 Rich Tea biscuits
4 salmon sandwiches (tinned variety) but no hint of lemon juice today. I will have to buy some lemons over the weekend.
1 toffee flavoured yoghurt
2 satsumas
1 banana
1 apple

How it was all consumed.

Was pretty ravenous this morning... had the biscuits by 10.40am, followed by the banana. The sandwiches were devoured by 11.30am, then the yoghurt and the fruit.

Random thought: Have never been to an airport yet without a pre-arranged destination.

2017: The world's last product with the label "batteries not included" is sold at an electrical shop in Wellington, New Zealand.

Mission Statement: Failure is an option.

Have a great weekend.

BREAKFAST: Was in the gym at 6.44am this morning.... first time in a month. Returned to have a swell bowl of Cornflakes with semi-skimmed milk. THE WALK to WORK THE rain and wind tested by umbrella handing skills to the limit this morning. Down the Taff Trail and the home of Glamorgan County Cricket Club, Sophia Gardens, was looking particularly sad this morning. A cyclist waved as she passed me on the trail, turned out to be work colleague Anna Morrell . She later explained how she dreads passing pedestrians on the trail sporting i-Pods... good to get a cyclist perspective for a change! THE lunchbox: 1 plum 1 organic banana. 4 chicken sandwiches on granary bread 1 Toffee flavoured Muller Light Yoghurt 1 slice of Chocolate Crunch made by Plugs of Trumpton PLEASE don't panic it's only a fire drill! Was feeling rather hungry this morning on the account of being all macho and going to the gym at such an early hour. Chocolate Crunch went first, followed by the banana and then t...

A podcast on the Welsh Forgetter of the Year. TO HEAR THE BARDS in ACTION CLICK HERE, DIOLCH! BREAKFAST: Very good bowl of Branflakes THE WALK to WORK. SUN was radiating as I ambled down what was a POSTCARDESQUE River Taff Trail this morning. Was i-Podless so had the full symphony of bird song, interspersed with the chimes of the Clock Tower of Cardiff Castle. THE LUNCHBOX 4 salmon sandwiches(tinned variety)with a hint of lemon juice. 1 plum 1 banana 1 Toffee flavoured Muller Light Yoghurt. 2 Chocolate digestive biscuits. TRUST ME MY WIFE IS A MAGISTRATE. Biscuits went early, followed by the fruit then the sandwiches just before midday. Saving the yoghurt until later RANDOM THOUGHT 2021: THE opening of the first TESCO UNIVERSITY, where students are schooled in Tescology, is delayed after members of the ANTI-TESCO league chain themselves to supermarket trollies in the offices of the Vice-Chancellor, located at the end of the Frozen Food aisle of the new campus

BREAKFAST: Marvellous bowl of Cornflakes with cold semi-skimmed milk. The Walk to Work. Sun was really trying to break through (fair play), but even with clear blue skies there was the odd drop of rain... well that's the UK for you! Down the Taff Trial into the centre of Cardiff and it was cyclist mania this morning. And at last more on the wildlife front, noted two fierce looking ravens foraging for food on the river bank, as well as quite a few chilled out ducks on the River Taff below. The immaculate groomed white Husky passed me with his owner. LUNCHBOX... 1 banana 1 plum 4 chicken sandwiches on granary bread 1 toffee flavoured Muller Light Yoghurt 1 slice of coconut cake made by Plugs of Trumpton. THIS oven could do with a good clean! Went for the cake first (and why not!), followed by the banana and then the plum. Sandwiches were rapidly demolished just before midday. Yoghurt will go shortly.
