It’s been a couple of weeks since I got back from Scotland and so it’s time for an update.
At long last I’ve managed to get back on my bike on a Sunday morning and get round one of my regular routes. It’s just over 10 miles and takes about 48 minutes, or at least it did this month. At the end of last year I was completing the same route in 45 minutes – there’s work to be done.
I spent the first week after Scotland getting back into my routines and usual events, such as my Monday, Tuesday, Friday visits to the gym; and tidying up the house and garden.
Last week Helene came to stay. We visited Lincoln to have lunch at Stokes café on the Lawns followed by a trip into the city for some shopping.
I don’t often get into Lincoln so it made a pleasant change.
We spent the rest of the week gardening, dinner with friends and curry night at the Gate of India.
We do like our food. Helene offered to make a steak pie and I couldn’t refuse. We enjoy cooking and manage to bring things together as a team without too much discussion or getting in each other’s way.
One of this month’s photography themes is macro photography. A lot of people will be taking photos of flowers but I had this idea of capturing the human eye close up. Helene volunteered to sit still and try not to blink.
I like the effect.
