April 24th lunchbox















THE waters of the River Taff at the Weir about 2 miles north of the centre of Cardiff

BREAKFAST: 3 Weetabix with hot milk.

The Walk to Work: A little bit chilly, but fundamentally fine as I set off in pursuit of earning a little corn.
Down the River Taff Trail and it was pretty low key. Two ducks ascended magnificently into the morning sky, before coming into land feet first some 200 yards up stream.
Into the centre of Cardiff and I then took the route down the riverway walk, which runs parallel to the Millennium Stadium.
The only thing to report on the river below was a hearty Heron who took to the air and within seconds had flown out of sight.

Lunchbox
1 banana
4 salmon sandwiches (tinned variety) with a hint of lemon juice.
1 toffee flavoured Muller Light Yoghurt
1 piece of Mrs B's magnificent home made coffee sponge cake... 10 out 10!
1 small container of a cut up plum and sliced kiwi fruit.

Oh I'm terribly sorry I don't have enough money... I'll have to put this steak and kidney pie back!

Was the container of fruit first, followed by Mrs B's delicious coffee sponge cake just after 11am. I then had the banana and the sandwiches just before midday. Yoghurt was the last to go.

Random Thought

2110: THE first Tesco store is opened on the surface on Mars.

Aled Blake has requested the zimmer frame song... so Aled tomorrow it will be so!

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.
