Balaclava to Shorts!!!!

Title refers to my changing attire on the bike. My ride at the end of last week I was wearing balaclava, thermals, winter gloves and I was still cold! Today I was wearing shorts and had to take my jacket off after my first climb! You do meet many walkers out on the lanes which is great to see but occasionally taking evasive action can be difficult when a car is overtaking.

The cricket is disappointing I hope they can put up some sort of fight tomorrow- I won’t risk getting up early! talking of cricket my club Slimbridge are holding a raffle at the end of the month to fill in the hole in our finances that Covid  has made. If anyone wants to supports us please get in touch -there are some great prizes including a story from some Story Teller Bloke (virtual or live)!

As I’ve mentioned a raffle and the luck that goes with that Today’s Quiz is on Pot Luck!

a) Which country was the first to build motorways?    b) Who is the director and producer  of the 2004 documentary film Fahrenheit 9/11 c) What is the first name of Captain Oates who left his tent on Captain Scott’s ill fated expedition?  d) The National Diet is the parliament in which country?  e) Phenol is the common name for which acid?

I did say it was Pot Luck!
