Tent Trial ..

Well, not an unpleasant night, although I had forgotten how loud the dawn chorus is at 5am having slept behind double-glazing for too many years; a bit chilly but not unbearable and nothing another layer couldn't  have cured. All in all, bring it on. Sorry for sounding such a novice to all you tentisti but this still has the new toy at Xmas feel for me and here is the offending sprung-loaded tube ...

... and the biggest test of all ... getting tent, mat and s/bag back into the tiny bags they came in ...

Blimey, woz awl va fuss abaa', awl dun in a Jimmy Riddle; you got'a luv it son. Geeze a slap an' a clap. (Shouldn't have watched Guy Ritchie's 'Revolver' yesterday starring Jason Statham). Oh, picked up an adapter today so I can charge my phone while riding ... Sweeeeet! Just love technology, at least when it works. Thought about it while having a Bags of Goodness meet with sis at are usual spot, 'That Cafe' in Newport; lovely latte, thank you Fleur.

London tomorrow ...
