October 19th lunchbox

BREAKFAST: Glorious bowl of 3 weetabix; glass of water; cup of tea, two pieces of toast with olivio spread and blackcurrant jam and a banana.

Lunchbox: Not needed today as I am out for lunch with a certain Alun Davies.

Alun is a fan of this blog and passed on this comment:
Sion, Could you do me a favour please?
Rather than saying, "in the corporate trough with Mr Alun Davies today so no lunchbox" on your blog could you say something like: "Having lunch with Alun today. Can't wait. His wit and humour and rakish conversation is what keeps me going through these long autumn days.
A man with a brilliant brin. I simply do not understand how he is not a member of the National Assembly. A future First Minister."

Thanks Alun for those wondrous comments.... It will be an honour to lunch with argubably the greatest living Welshman later today.

Walk to Work: Rain was in the air as I headed down the Taff Trail with my umbrella in hand. Noticed that the River Taff was moving more rapidly than of late. Quite a few ducks were being spun around, which brought back memories of my favourite game as a kid Battling Tops

Random Thought

2010: Alun Davies changes his political colours [not again Alun!], after quitting the Conservative Party following a brawl with Prime Minister David Cameron. He forms the Chameleon Party of Tredegar... Welsh actor Rhys Ifans agrees to become the party's treasurer.

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
