THE WALK to Work
Tale/Tail of two terrier dogs this morning on the River Taff Trail. One was running with a stick in its mouth, which if proportioned to a human would be around the size of a cricket bat.

Two minutes later and another ( but not as well groomed as the previous) had a tennis ball in its mouth. His owner gave out one of the loudest belches I have heard for a long-time as I passed him.... good for him!

River Taff was extremely calm and was being out paced by a very neat looking mechanical digger which was moving at a snail's pace on the path on the other side of the river.


The Lunchbox:
Small container of anchovies with capers in olive oil.
1 apple
1 banana
1 small container of green grapes, pieces of plum and thinly sliced kiwi fruit
2 ham and tomato sandwiches on granary bread
2 sausage sandwiches on granary bread.... the sausages were left over from Mrs B's marvellous bangers & mash last night.
1 raspberry and cranberry flavoured Muller Light Yoghurt.

Get on with it!

Banana and the container of fruit went early, just after 11am. at 11.45am I had the anchovies which we bought from the Farmers' Market in Cardiff on Sunday. Had the great sandwich combination just before midday.
Biscuits went after that, followed by the yoghurt... keeping the apple for later.

Today Job Swap: Former British/Australian/Hungarian heavyweight boxer Joe Bugner and biotechnology entrepreneur Sir Chris Evans.... both can talk a very good fight.

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...

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.

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.
