Rain wasn’t forecast until about 2pm. So I met Mike D at 10.00 am and we had a great ride down to Tenterden. Our little cafe run by a Frenchman was closed but we found another one nearby that had a public bench very close to the entrance so that was just right. We sipped […]
After our vaccine morning on Saturday we decided to go of a bike ride on Sunday. A pleasant Mothers Day day so after opening a lovely flowery present from Stuart we had to tell Mike his hadn’t arrived. He had paid for express delivery but the lovely box of special wines only arrived today (Tues), […]
After my knee stabbingly awful run on Tuesday I rested up on Wednesday, I stayed in doors all day, caught up on emails and prepared this weekend’s vaccine rotas. Heavy rain had been forecast but it was just a bit windy with a few showers. I spoke to Uncle Les (88) later and he had […]
I visited Mum for the first time since November. I had to arrive an hour earlier than my appointment to take an unpleasant nasal test and then wait for the result. It was negative so I dressed up in PPE, i.e. gloves, mask and apron and then was taken to see Mum in her room. […]
Great excitement today as all the schools re-opened. It is the first stage in the gradual lifting of precautions. Schools appear to be very prepared and at least one rolled out a red carpet surrounded by balloons and bubbles for the kids to walk down.

Here we are at the beginning of March and […]
After a 10 mile run on Monday and a 59 mile bike ride yesterday it is a day indoors catching up on vaccine rotas and general jobs I keep putting off. Sue has just been for her run with her friend and got back just before the rain arrived. She has spent some more time […]
I decide to run 10 miles today and all went well clocking up 10.32 miles. chilly wind but i soon warmed up. Similarly long route as previously taking in steep hills so finished up with 810ft elevation. No mishaps but tittered towards the end. Notified today that the Chilham Castle Duathlon I am entered in […]
We arrived for our 8.00am shift yesterday to find that Dr PeterH had designed a new way for patients to rest once they had had their jab. Being Pfizer vaccine 15mins rest before leaving is compulsory. To save people sitting in a crowded room a snail shaped route was marked out in the waiting room. […]
