Spotted a yellowhammer which I haven't seen for a while and plenty of goslings by the Thames.
Did about 20 miles in all. Spotted people going into an estate agents in Caversham. Not sure if that's because of yesterday's rule change but seemed odd.

Had a zoom with the Kelly clan in the evening.

On Tuesday morning I did a ride following route 4 then branched off to Chalkhouse Green and followed my round Reading route to Playhatch.

Spotted a fine display of red hot pokers just outside Sonning.

Did some Soundtrap in the afternoon. Working on a version of I Am A Pilgrim to utilise my banjo. Pete is doing Street Life, the Roxy Music version.

On Wednesday morning Tony came round to fix the stiff tap in the bathroom in a socially distanced manner. The volunteer scheme seems to be working OK. He's going to start furloughing himself and Sue will probably retire from the BBC when this all over as she can't face commuting.

Had the usual night down The Hop Leaf with Andy and Kelvin but this time with the Westvleteren. Wow what a beer. Easily the best of that type I've tasted. Expensive though and hard to come by.

On Thursday I went for a ride on my road bike. JR had told me about the Lovibonds brewery in Henley. I thought I could maybe buy a couple of bottles from their shop. Couldn't find it though and when I got back and re-read what it said on their website the shop/tap room had closed. Carried on to Hambledon and then Frieth up a very steep hill then down to Skirmet and back down the valley. When I got back to Henley I took the Nettlebed road but forgot it turns into a pretty unpleasant dual carriageway even with quieter roads. Cut off through the woods and back via Caversham. It was about 37 miles. I'd overdone it a bit. Had a zoom with Penno, Kevin and Adrienne in the evening.

Our weekly shop wasn't arriving until Saturday so on Friday I had to go out for extra wine supplies. Ian sent a video of a wooden puppet drinking a pint he had made. I couldn't resist putting a Fast Show soundtrack to it.

Garth seems keen to start another Soundtrap project with me and Kelvin. I've suggested The Weight and Ian has agreed to do the piano parts.

On Saturday evening after our meal we started watch the Parliament channel which was showing rerun of the 1964 election results coverage. Strangely interesting. So much so that we moved to the front room and started watching 1966 then 70 and 74.
Went for a walk on Sunday. Went via the bottle bank at Prospect Park. Amazingly the car park was full. Thought for a moment it might have been the mass gathering organised by the British Lunatic Movement but that was supposed to be on Saturday. Headed off to Tidmarsh and did a walk via Sulham and along Nunhide Lane and back. The church at Sulham was shut so took photos of the stained glass from the outside.
Got back in time for a swifty in The Peanut And Gerkin. Spotted one of these in the sky.

Has homemade pizza for tea but just in the oven. Watched telly invuding footage of the second 1974 election.
