I have ridden around Northampton and the Shire a lot during this period. Wendy has joined me in more recent times and as she is not as confident as I am on a bike I have attempted to find routes which keep us off the roads wherever possible. I have been riding my hybrid which is a novelty for me. I want to say, a big well done to Northants County Council for providing a lot of cycle lanes and paths particularly in the area going out towards Moulton and the surrounding area. The re-design of the road system around the large Moulton roundabout has provided an opportunity to put in a cycle lane and path on the old Kettering road which is no longer a through route. Well done, I hope this enlightened progressive attitude continues.
On this date 40 years ago my darling Wendy and I were preparing to go to Harrow register office at 2pm to get hitched. I won’t say we have remained in wedded bliss for the whole forty years but I would not have missed a single one. Wendy is my best friend and whilst she can be a absolute pain in the arse, I am no angel and have probably been the more difficult of the two of us. She has had to cope with a lot particularly since the late 1990’s and although it has taken a toll on her both physically and mentally she has remained the person that i always want to be with. I hope to write a piece for our 50th an 60th anniversaries!
We are finding it more and more difficult to concentrate or care about the daily news. I have been giving it a cursory scan every day and only because I want to understand the updates on the current situation. It is boring!
Wendy has just told me about a boiler suit pattern which she can print off as a PDF. I heard boiler suit that you have a pattern as a PPE. I thought she found a pattern to make your own protective suit! We laughed!
Stay well.
