Went for a walk up to the dam behind the hoose to scout it for a fishing trip tomorrow. Put your orders in for fresh trout and I will post them to you.
For exercise of the mind I'm embarking on the 890 page book by Leon Trotsky on that fud Stalin. Should be fun.

I'm starting to do lots of gardening. Now might also be a good time to get some home brews going in the shed.

Into my second day of 40 minutes on exercise bike following some work with light weights. Thought I would stay fit and lose weight in the bargain. I’ve put on 2 pounds.

I love a day on the bank , unfortunately it's now close season on the river ( I fish the Thames and Lea ) and I couldn't fish the carp puddles if I wanted to , hopefully when my self isolating is over we can fish again

Well, I haven’t been near the exercise bike for months so I was surprised how effortless I found it. Tomorrow I am going to try the pedals.

Not a good idea!

Good man. To relieve boredom (and perhaps if you are a statto too) you might want to try some of the app's out there. Zwift do a 7 day trial and Fulgaz do 14 days. Then there's the facebook of running & cycling (if you are not already on it) call Strava. When combined with everything else it will drive you nuts!

I've only got a very basic cheap trainer 80 quid which runs with a roller to the back wheel.Don't seem at my best at the moment and can just about average 15mph.Must say I am a bit worried after Saturday's bike ride where I struggled badly and had a headache all day felt unwell but no cough.Seem ok today and been in islation for over two days.

Keep safe Murdoch. I'm trying to relive my youth (aged 56) and hit 2017 levels after 2019 being my worst exercise year ever. Shed 5kg (83>78) and I'm almost there in power output. Have upped my game in March and am at 100 miles per week right now. I suspect with he lock down I might start hitting 120, but have to be mindful of the objective.
