Blurry picture of yours truly below at the Velodrome on Friday. Full of admiration for the professionals who race, the bikes are fixed wheel with no brakes so handling isn’t as easy as a normal road. Back on my road bike tomorrow!

Thursday at Tuffley Library was aided by great weather so I was able to point out birds to the children and told bird stories as we walked around the local park. Important places Libraries and are important to local communities.  A break this week until my busy spell with Two Severn Bores, a reminder of our dates-Wednesday 24th April at Folk Tales in Bristol (8.00 p.m. Benjamin Parry Scout Hut), Friday 26th Frampton Village Society (7.30 p.m. welcome to anyone) and Tuesday 30th at Wotton Arts Festival  (7.30 Star Inn Wotton).

Finally it had to happen my fantastic football team lost a match ending our record breaking unbeaten run. So it was some adjustment to the normal smiling Saturday night We were a bit short on numbers certainly up front and we didn’t take our chances in the first half. Fingers crossed we will get back to winning ways next week.
