Out on bike today stopped for coffee at this little 2nd hand furniture/ bric-a-brac place with a coffee shop.

Spotted a small glass piece engraved with a Swan. Remembered Mrs L has a similar one with a King Fisher so bought it, £8. Also saw a Canon EOS 1100d DSLR camera with 64Gb memory card. A quick Google showed them going for anything from £50 and up. Bought it for £15. Even if it doesn't work at that price it was worth a gamble.

Camera works perfectly. There were some photos on the memory card of a rugby match, judging by the scenery in the background it wasn't un the UK (mountains & pine forests). Gave the camera a clean, swapped the battery for one from another camera & popped a 50mm lens on it & jobs a good'un. Had to clean it up a bit though.

Just arrived at Oakwood field, home of Staincross whites where Joe is featuring on the right wing (not his preferred position) it is a cup game so will be s tough one, the second game is a development game where he’ll be playing as striker, tried talking him out of the development game as i’ll miss the first half of Leeds v Millwall, oh well, family first

Bruv-in-law Eric has just visited for a chinwag. His (and my wife’s) cousin’s hubbie has recently passed away, rather a shame for him and his wife obviously. I spoke with him at the local cemetery a year or two ago and had a chat about bikes, as you do, and he mentioned what he had in the garage.

Anyway Eric said that his cousin asked if I was interested in his old motorbike? Yes, too bloody true! So we’re going to arrange a suitable time and day to go and look at it. All I know is it was his pride and joy and he wouldn’t have wanted it to go to someone to sell on and make money out of it.

It’s a 650 Triton.

A visit to the local farmers market this morning, sausages from piggies that used to reside in the field 500 yards up the road, cereal from a farm 4 miles away for breakfast tomorrow & a bottle of local cider for later.

Then off to visit my mum for coffee. Now taking cheap camera i bought yesterday out for a walk to give it a good field test.

Amazing what you can fit into a say when the OH is away at her sisters.

Cut the grass for the first time since about October, it looks awful but at least it's no longer a jungle.

3-1 win for Staincross whites, Joe got two assists, Worsboro thought they were Millwall judging by their tactics, ref didn’t do too bad but he did give a penalty to Worsboro for a debatable foul a yard outside the box, quarter finals next.
