BREAKFAST: 3 Weetabix with semi-skimmed cold milk... excellent


THE Walk to Work
A fierce looking Doberman was running at terrifc speed towards me (I have mentioned him before) as I walked along the Taff Trail, which follows the River Taff into the centre of Cardiff.
Was I a little frigthened?, well yes I was, but fortunately he passed by without any incident.
Sun was glistening on the River Taff below and a few ducks were out and about. Leaving the trail and crossing Canton Bridge into the centre of the city I came across a certain Professor Dylan Jones-Evans. We had a little chat on the bridge about this and that... including a new knowledge bank for management buy-outs in Wales (perhaps we should have jumped off the bridge instead!)

Lunchbox
4 salmon (tinned variety) sandwiches on granary bread with a hint of lemon juice
1 banana
1 cherry flavoured Muller light yoghurt
2 chocolate digestive biscuits

MY advice is just be yourself









Biscuits were first to go, followed by the banana. Sandwiches fell in battle at 11.30am followed by the yoghurt

Hi Ron,

Not quite sure what you mean... are you referring to the fact that there isn't a podcast perhaps?

Ps Is Joe Johnson still playing snooker?

I was just referring to the comments left by your readers and also the fact there is no podcast, something I look forward to.

Joe retired years ago - keep up!

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.
