and Joe heads to BSTK festival
Up at 6.15am. Making sausage sandwiches for Joe and a couple of the Pylons. They are off to open the main stage at BKST Festival (formerly known as Brownstock). The Pylons played there two years ago in the bar so this is a step up.
Wiping the sleep from my eyes. Think I had a good sleep. Don’t remember waking in the night though that doesn’t mean I didn’t.
Now a good time to type. The fridge is humming quietly in the kitchen and the occasional bird reminds me it is out there. Hiya Tref. Hi bird. Don’t fly off. I promise to refill the bird feeder, now empty.
It is important to get the right sausages. These are spicy Lincolnshire from Fosters on Monks Road. Left over from Joefest 2016. Most others are pale imitations. Joe is taking Barney and Phil in the Micra whilst Joey and Dalton go in the Dalton’s Galaxy, seats down carrying the instruments. The Micra order is for two brown sauces and one red sauce. The Galaxy can look after itself.
I’ve refilled the feeder(s). Need to buy more stocks now. The remaining seed has started to grow in the squirrel proof feeder so will have to remove that for cleaning next time. It will mean cutting the cable tie but hey…
Now I just need to decide when is a good time to take Anne up a cup of tea. It is still only 7.11am. Twirly.
Today is a big sporting day. British F1 Grand Prix at Silverstone, Wimbledon Men’s Final with our Andy and Portugal v France in the European Cup Final (c’mon Portugal). I am also cooking a chicken on the bbq using the rotisserie. Should be good. Might do some roast veg in the drip tray.
There is no sun out there. It’s looking as if it will be a cloudy day. Warm enough though. Shame John’s cricket match isn’t today. Yesterday’s was called off because the opposition couldn’t raise a team but it would probably have been rained off anyway.
Went back to bed taking the tea up and then treated meself to a fryup – one sausage, two bacon, couple of fried new potatoes left over from yesterday, fried bread and an egg sunny side up.
