lazy blue sky morning

unusually today's fun began with a lie-in, breakfast in bed and a read of the papers. i could see the cloudless blue sky from every window in the house as i went room to room, building a small pile of down, gor-tex and sugary treats.

i'm all packed now and ready to leave for a bank holiday bivvy. however, the skies are now decidedly gray and the sun has has lost it's sparkle. maybe the early bird does catch the worm....but what if the bird is wearing full waterproofs?

The early birds caught a great run round Edale and some lovely cake. Hope the ride and bivvy are fun, looking forward to your write up when you get back.

More adventures!? Is the whisky packed in there too? I reckon you're gonna need it after the rain we've just had. Have a good (not wet) one. Rb.

Bivvy biking appeals to me. Go have fun, but I expect the birdie will have wet feathers.
