Short blog today because believe it or not I’ve been fairly busy. Gardening a bit of housework and a cycle. Tried a new recipe today for a flan that ended up looking like a dog’s dinner (tasted OK!) It is an irony that I am probably my fittest on the bike as I get older- might be because I am clocking many miles each week! I set several PBs on my ride today.<\/p>\n

I’ve also been relearning my stories for the River Severn-we are aiming to record tomorrow!<\/p>\n
