November 15 lunchbox

BREAKFAST: Seriously filling bowl of porridge.

Walk to Work: Looked like rain was closing in as I shuffled along the Taff Trail. I used to have an i-Pod as a musical companion, but it is out of action due to "firm ware" issues.
However, Mrs B, yesterday ordered a new one as it was still under warranty [but only five days were remaining]. It should be arriving next week from the States.
Ducks were again out in force on the River Taff below.

Lunchbox.
1 banana
1 apple
4 salmon [tinned variety] sandwiches with a hint of lemon juice on granary bread.
1 slice of chocolate cake [which was bought from the Farmers' Market in Cardiff last Sunday]

Hi Sion

If was bought in Los Angeles and when Mrs B rang up she was put through to a call centre in the States.
It could well be that Apple could have sourced the replacement in the UK, but I think it will come from the US.

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!

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.
