Light my Fire

Great weekend, hopefully this wonderful weather will last for a while. I had a complicated day on Saturday, I had to go to our Dave’s in Exeter to change bikes around because I had brought his back from the Alps. Also had all his stuff, tent etc. Turned out his cricket team were short so the agreement was I would play for them until the tea interval. Fielded in the heat! Then set off to Aylesbeare Common (RSPB reserve) for my gig.

It was for the Great Sleep Out and people had been there all day constructing an Iron Age Hut (I did help ). It was a great advert for team work. I told some stories around the evening meal. As the light faded we went for a walk looking for Nightjars (and listening for their churring noise). Lovely walk and I told another story in the dark ( I geared this one more to the adults).  I was very tired by the time I got home!

A lovely envelope full of Thank You letters and children’s writing from last week’s gig arrived today. The writing was impressive!

Went for a ride up Frocester Hill today and did a PB. Still have some of my Alp legs!
