I was in a school for the whole day yesterday the first whole day I have had since the pandemic (they have been a few half days)  a real contrast with March 2020 where I did seven whole days before lock down! So it was great to be able work across a whole school again. I was there to celebrate No Pens Day. I have a busy December coming up with four adult gigs including the Three Horseshoes on the 8th December at 8pm (all welcome).

I have been on the bike quite a bit this week including a cold but delightful ride with Clare today to Nailsworth to celebrate her birthday and lunch. First time for wearing a balaclava under the helmet! The pictures below is the Old Groynes (me and my pals) on one of our adventures  -this was our Coast to Coast ride and then  back across on the Hadrian’s Wall  Cycle Route.
