Unrepresentative

It looks like a calm, peaceful kind of a day, does it not?  The BBC forecast described today as, 'feeling warm with light winds.'  'Twas a lie!  Although it was warm.

I don't count today as a day out, it was definitely an exercise outing but a great few hours nonetheless.  Heading out with Rich, we took it in turns to take a stint at the front. It wasn't a desperate headwind but because we weren't going that far, we were trying to put in a bit of effort so it probably felt worse.

Rich was adding a few extra miles to round off his mileage for the week whereas I was getting back for Little Dog.  So, at the Arncliffe turning, Rich turned left and I headed straight for Kettlewell.  There had been no sign of sunshine and plenty of darkness on the way but just as I was taking the last incline to Kettlewell, I spotted this barn and double-backed for a photo.  After a couple of photos, I checked the clouds to see if there was any chance of a tiny break.  There was!  I probably had to wait for 10 minutes but eventually, the cloud cleared to look like the magnificent British summer's day that it certainly was not.  It didn't last long so I counted myself lucky and looped home from Kettlewell with a spring in my step.

I've added an extra dinner in this evening of leftover curry from a great night with L&J.  We watched Eddie the Eagle and I'm now keen to find out how much of the storyline reflected the real Eddie.   

Now time for Dinner 2.
