Dear All,
Both
Ben and Andy took part in the London to Brighton Challenge yesterday, Ben
running and Andy walking. Both finished the 100 kilometres in excellent times
considering the heat of between 14 and 15 hours if I can interpret the race
print outs accurately – so well done.
Race Heros!
Meanwhile in the more geriatric world it was
back to swimming on Monday followed by Brussel sprout planting then the annual
chapel 10 Pin Bowling evening at Pidley. There were about 35 for the
pretournament meal and 24 bowling. I didn’t star but it was an enjoyable
evening.

I
had my latest Covid booster in Cambridge on Tuesday- arms like pin cushions
now! Then my new mower arrived in pieces so had to be assembled.
Our
Thursday walk started at Potton and took in Sandy Heath, the Gravel pits and
RSPB HQ at Sandy. It was a good walk with varied scenery and loads of Miner’s
lettuce (Claytonia).

We
have been on badger alert again this week as they managed to savage my carrots
grown in pots and placed in the fruit cage for safety. We have barricaded the
bottom of the garden with pallets but the night cam last night revealed two frolicking
near the pond.
I
have planted melons, squash, marrows and pumpkins this week but with the warm
dry conditions we seem to be back to regular watering again.
Geoff
and I have to give a presentation on our recent Moldova trip in the service
tonight.
Love
Mike
& Kate
