It was much nicer today, but that sodding wind we’ve been plagued with for what feels like eternity was still cutting a path through the County. I can’t remember Norfolk being this windy in May, but maybe this is just a freak year and it’s the whole of East Anglia that’s being ravaged by gales, not just here in Suffolk.
I decided to say ‘sod it’ to the breeze and take my bike out anyway. I’m sick of having meteorological excuses for being unfit so I packed a lunch and a big bottle of squash and put in twenty miles on the Velociped. It was tough going at times (cycling uphill into a gusting headwind is never fun) but I feel so much better for doing it. I saw some beautiful sights, I got some fresh air, and I broke my recent habit of sitting on my arse just moaning about the weather.
Then I fell asleep for most of the afternoon, which shows you how un-used my body is to the exercise!
Tonight Philippa and I ate our tea in the garden and had a thoroughly wonderful evening.
Life is good.
Well, it’s better than it was yesterday anyway, and that’s good enough for me for now.
