July 12th lunchbox

BREAKFAST: Very agreeable bowl of Shreddies with semi-skimmed milk.


THE Walk to Work:

The Taff Trail was pretty low key again today, with the River Taff below hardly moving. At the end of the trail _ where I cross into the centre of Cardiff via Canton Bridge _ two chaps from a company aptly named WeedControl, where busy spraying a concoction of chemicals on shrubs and flowers just yards to my right.


LUNCHBOX.

1 banana
4 ham sandwiches
1 peach
1 chocolate brownie ( kindly supplied by a certain Annabel Lloyd of the South Wales seaside town of Penarth).

All was gone by midday... and why not indeed!


Have you got anything stronger?

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.
