and a good ride out via Woolhampton and Kingsclere. Spotted a paraglider over what I later discovered was Watership Down.The ford itself was a bit of a let down though.Came back through Greenham Common and got a train from Thatcham. Took this snap on the platform. You can see the photographer reflected in the bottom, at least his legs.
I used say wallet, glasses, phone, keys to myself when I went out to remind me to take those items. I lost my wallet a couple of years ago and just used my phone cover so it kind of went out of use. I've decided to reintroduce it though as mask, glasses, phone, keys. It was announced tgat the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine has been approved in the UK. The roll out will probably start next week. On Wednesday afternoon I had the Skype call with Mike. He seems like a nice bloke, about my age and it was very productive. The lockdown has now ended so we are now in tier 2. Had a goolie chat in the evening. On Thursday decided to start repainting the utility room as the weather is mot looking too good fir the next few days. Went for a swim now lockdown has been lifted. It was a bit colder than usual.You now need to wear a mask in the sports centre except when exercising. Went to the Fox and Hounds for first Thursday drinks and a substantial meal. They only had these beers on, a lot of pubs put there beers on Untapped as its table service.Had 3 Yulus, a Lumina and fimished off with a Just Stout. Pizzas were good too but we only had small ones.
We sat in the big tent which counts as outside. Wore 2 T shirts, 2 jumpers, 2 pairs of socks, thermals and a jacket. They just had one heater. There was a bit of a delay getting in but after that it was quite well organised. They are doing 3 hour slots. We had 7 30 to 10 30. Only opening Thursday to Sunday so today was the first day they have been reopened. It was weird going out at night. Good lights from the footbridge which looks pretty good itself.
Continued with utility room on Friday. Tony came roind to plum in the tumble dryervso we dont have to empty the water tank. Made pizzas and watched telly. On Saturday I popped to BnQ to get some filler about 11. Saw some fans heading for the match, they're letting 2000 in, its a 12 30 KO. Watched it on Sky via Now TV. We won 2 0. They had a player sent off for stopping a goal with his hand after about 20 mins. Joao scored the penalty. Morrison got the second. Started painting the utility room after finishing the prep. Had the society walk on Sunday around Warren Row starting at Knowl Hill. Really good walk, as is traditional for the December walk we stopped for mince pies and drinks. We split into 2 groups of 6. Hilary took her dog Lola.Finished off painting the walls in the utility room apart from a bit of touching up. Cooked a curry.
