\"roofing<\/a>… that one side of the barn roof is finished. And so, here’s a pic that I took this morning not long after I woke up.<\/p>\n

It’s quite impressive this roofing stuff isn’t it?<\/p>\n

I’ve been quite busy today, although it might not seem much like it. I started off with a little gardening and then went into Pionsat for 11:00 to meet Max the secretary of Pionsat’s football club who had to sign a document or two for me.<\/p>\n

Then it was back to gardening again and everything that is going to be planted this year is now planted and that is that.
\n
<\/p>\n

That took me until 13:10 when I went chaud-pied<\/i> into Montlucon. First stop was LIDL as they were selling some more 12-volt LEDs and at \u20ac3.99 too – I bought a pile of them. And then to Brico Depot for the guttering, the nails and stuff. No downpipes and no joints (it’s a rather familiar lament isn’t it?) but tons of other stuff, including a pile of drawers (not THAT kind of drawers, Rhys!). Yes, here I am planning to build myself a fitted wardrobe and a fitted kitchen and there they were with some end-of-range drawer kit – deep 40mm ones at \u20ac3.50 (you can’t even buy the sliders for that) and deep 60mm ones at \u20ac5.00. I now have 8 of each which is impressive.<\/p>\n

Following that was my test d’effort<\/i>. They put me on a running walkway thing for 7 minutes and attached a load of electrodes to me. I ran about 2.5km in that time (and in that heat too – it’s been glorious today) and the verdict is “very good condition for his age”. I sound like a horse or an old Ford Cortina.<\/p>\n

I’d missed the post by then and so I had to drive all the way to Clermont Ferrand to deliver my file to the Referees’ Association, taking in a visit to the Auchan on the way. And I can’t find my satnav now – another thing I’ve mislaid.<\/p>\n

But the highlight of the day had to be in the doctor’s this afternoon. He was helping me fill in the medical form –
“Sex?” he asked
“Put down ‘yes’ for that” I replied.
“Errrr … I think they wan’t you to put down ‘M’ or ‘F’ there” said the doctor.
“Okay – put down ‘M’ then” I said. “It’s been years since I’ve had an ‘F'”.<\/p>\n
