h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

The video was funny - seeing the GPS line sketching out over the grainy landscape Not much detail, but still interesting to see.

Yes, that would make sense to add some sort of matting to make it less cold as well as hard

" open and honest feedback" - yes indeed!

Wow, that is a surprise to be invited to a wedding at such short notice - hopefully the logistics of getting there and back are smooth

Clever Milo learning how to use the cat flap, but good that he is staying nearby now after the previous mystery expedition. Good idea to be more cautious with Calico, as she doesn't need another one of those scary expeditions, either...

It's Queen Wasp Mystery Season again - this morning I was just at my desk when I heard a loud Buzz and discovered a wasp trying to get out via the kitchen window. My mum had four queen wasps exploring her kitchen last week, too. Mystery where they appear from, but luckily relatively easy to put them outside

Good luck avoiding the queen wasps.

Fortunately the logistics of getting to the wedding are quite simple; I'll walk for about 15 minutes, as it is the opposite end of Southampton's city centre from where I work, round the corner from the ferry. The wedding itself is intended to be a small affair with the bride, groom and two witnesses ahead of a larger celebration next month, however one of the witnesses is too ill to attend so I've been asked to be emergency back-up substitute witness.

Yesterday I had the day off to go to visit my grandfather. As the weather was so positive, and they've recently put bike racks on the Red Jet to allow bicycles to cross on the passenger ferry, I decided I'd cycle to my sister's. One annoyance with Strava is that when you do an activity and then click Stop, and Resume elsewhere, instead of having a new line begin where you resume, it draws a straight line between the two. This gives the impression that you were active where you weren't.
Fortunately my granddad's lung infection seems to be on the mend, though of course he is still bed-bound and unable to lean upright to drink without assistance. And definitely much thinner than before.

Today I met up with Chris who took her dog Cosmo for his first ever parkrun - there was a different route at Itchen Valley Country Park, different to what they've done before.

Hope you're enjoying your weekend.
