The Race

Shamelessly stealing a photo from my brother. Lovely day down in Northumberland seeing the family (and still not getting my 40th birthday present, all of which hasn't arrived yet, and I'm still nonethewiser).

On the phone in the morning Phoebe had asked if I was going to ride over to our late lunch at Nelson's in Swarland with her and her dad. So I couldn't really refuse, sorted a puncture on the bike, whacked it on the car, and got a bonus 9 and a bit miles in the sun. Phoebe was a bit knackered from playing in the playpark at Nelson's, so Adam and I cruised back to Sam's house, catching up properly for the first time in a while.

Good day.
