Monday 6th February Lunchbox

Breakfast: A bowl of delicious Cornflakes with semi-skimmed milk (which was organic as that's all they had in the shop yesterday)

The Walk to Work.


Yes you've guessed it, I took the scenic route through Pontcanna Fields and along the River Taff Trail.

Amazingly mild this morning... spring was in the air. The birds were singing their hearts out again this morning. They always sound so positive.

An armada of ducks were making their way happily up river. The improving weather also seemed to agree with the British Bulldog who was again running ahead of his owner today.

A young chap cycled passed me riding "no handed" ( his hands were not on the handle bars). It brought back a memory of about 32 years ago when I first went "no handed" on my Chopper bike, only to fall off and smash my front tooth.

The first squirrel for over a week made a welcomed appearance.
I also notice for the first time a plethora of Daffodil bulbs.

The lunchbox
2 rich tea biscuits
6 pieces of Dairy Milk chocolates
4 ham and tomato sandwiches on granary bread
1 Muller light yoghurt, raspberry flavour
1 Apple
1 banana
1 satsuma.

What happened?

Chocolate was a nice surprise so that went early on.... just before 11am. I then had the banana and rich tea biscuits
Sandwiches went at midday, followed by the yoghurt and remaining fruit.


Random Thought: Concerned teacher to disruptive pupil. Is everything alright at home? Are you sure that your x-box is okay?

Not amused Queen to an off message Prince Charles: I am having a bad "heir" day today son.

Good interviewing question: Mr Williams this is a very impressive CV, but can you tell me a joke?

Prediction: First Minister of Wales Rhodri Morgan will stand down before next year's Assembly Election.

Ps It is also your democratic right not to vote.

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.
