Breakfast: Joyful and songful bowl of Weetabix with semi-skimmed organic milk.... I am alive and I intend to keep it that way. Walk to Work: It was down Cowbridge Road East which is wide enough to accommodate an army marching on its stomach into the centre of Cardiff. Lunchbox: Oh dear I forgot about that today. So into M&S in the centre of Cardiff for a banana, some orange juice and a salmon sandwich. Was also on an errand to find some pyjamas for Isabella: a vest and shorts style purchase I had in mind as the nights in South Wales this last week have been very clammy . I tried this shop and that with the success of any dad in a girls' clothing dept. In one shop a rather rotund lady asked me what the price was of an item.... it was time to exit. But at the next shop, it was Mothercare , I had success!! Random Thought. Plumbing a washing machine I had a dream All shopping had migrated online and the high streets on Saturdays were silent I looked to the north as far as the ...

Breakfast: Delightful, and I don't use that word lightly, bowl of Cornflakes with semi-skimmed cold organic milk. Was deliberating over having a bowl of Shreddies, but I am so glad I didn't... not to say I have anything against Shreddies mind you. Walk to Work: A slight gout attack overnight meant I needed Mrs B to drop me at my venue of income generation. Lunchbox: Four organic chicken sandwiches with tomato and salad on brown bread 2 satsumas 1 banana 1 apple 2 digestive biscuits. Random Thought: Jesus has not had a shave in 2008 years. Which is not really true as he probably had a beard when on earth too, perhaps from the age of 16.

BREAKFAST Amazing bowl of Weetabix with semi-skimmed cold milk Walk to Work: My first day back after a week's holiday/vacation, so opted for the tranquility of the Taff Trail, which meanders people of different sizes, ages, nationalities etc etc into the centre of the Welsh capital. En route I came across an old friend of this blog; Wales's greatest ever civil servant the affable Gareth Hall. We could have chatted all day, but we both have very important high powered jobs! Lunchbox: Lunchbox is somewhere at home, probably as I write watching some daytime TV. So I went across from my venue of income generation to chemist/retailer Boots for a not so great Meal Deal - anchored by two prawn sandwiches. Random Thought Man sitting on a stone bench just after 4pm at a piazza in the middle of a small Latin American town. There is a very nice fountain just a few feet ahead of him and his faithful dog is a sleep in the shade below the bench. What's he thinking? Don'...
