Monday 22nd September 2025

Up and attem at six, and to the gym at seven.

It may be a Monday morning, but there's no rest for the retired.

Having cycled round Dubai the day before, for Monday I chose Athens, and found modern architecture very like what is seen in Valencia.

I also increased the level of resistance by one, so some extra huffing and puffing done.

Then to Tesco for the weekly hunting and gathering. My coffee has three English pounds of it at the moment, so we buy two double packs.

We are being careful what we buy now, so we use stuff from the freezer ready for the kitchen replacement in four weeks.

Back home then for breakfast and a brew, then a shower and change along with a shave so I smell reet nice.

Jen's keep fit class was full, so could not go, meaning we could go earlier for cards.

We all do well, but come the end of the afternoon, we have so many coins our stash no longer fits into the tin. So, we take out the pound coins and silver, and it just about fitted.

A few weeks back we had barely a penny in it, but a month of wins has turned that around.

Back home, and we have to tell the cats to wait for dinner, so that its 12 hours between injections for Scully. Her readings were getting close to normal through the day.

Football in the evening: Millwall v Watford. A dreadful game won by the home team thanks to a peach of a free kick.
