Nice and sunny at the minute. Might go for a stroll.

I’m off to the park in a bit with my parachute to do some resistance sprint training. Canny outside atm

 

[Bob Fleming]

Can see it starting to pick up now.
Was planning on an evening walk down the beach with the hound but will just take him out round the fields now instead.

Should get the last of the leaves off the tree too.

Unless @Big Jeff posts similar I'll be defying those instructions and going for a safe late night stroll along the seafront when I leave the Harbour View

Picked up in Ryhope just now.

Bit of rain and strong wind. I live on a bank so the strong wind is something I’m used to. Intriguing to see if it’ll pick up the garden furniture
