Up at 5:45, struggled to get out of bed. Up town and walking dog for 6am, papers fetched.
Back home, showered, shaved and breakfasted then down the lotty to water the beans and leeks that went in over the weekend. Lotty looking good!
In Alfreton for 8am got a couple of mobile phone handlebar brackets so I can put my phone on the handlebars when am riding about. Ace. Back home a bit late after a frustrating day. Tea. Dog walked . Five holes of golf . Tomatoes and stuff watered. Car loaded up. Bed for 10.35

| A bit misty first thing but sun would soon burn it off! |
Set off for 7.05. Rode into office on super bike not too bad pace but sat at lights a bit long at Swanwick - would have nipped over crossing but car in front of me at lights so a smidge under 12mph average.

Cycled home in the pouring rain thinking at least the allotment is getting some rain on it. No it wasn't - Ashbourne was bone dry. Tea then walked the dog. As the rain hadn't obliged I had to nip down the lotty to water and put up some CD-ROM bird scarers!
Bit of a surprise to see Germany 5-0 after half an hour against Brazil but didn't stay up to watch it til the end. In bed by 10:30

Up at 5:30 again, dog walked, papers fetched by 6:30. On road by 7am as had to go to Mansfield to collect something. Into the office by 8:30 so all's well! Went to group after work, have put 3.5lbs on so stuff Dry July! Had tea, took dog a walk. Went down lotty weeded the little patch with the beetroot in and tethered some of the runner beans that seem to want to do their own thing. Watered pretty much everything. Came home. Had a whisky or three. Watched the dullest World Cup Semi ever. Bed late not bothering to cycle to work tomorrow as officially have a grump on!

Friday 11th July 2014
Up at 5:50(!), dog walked papers fetched. Showered, shaved, breakkied. Down to lotty to do watering I should have got done last night. Never mind it got done. Into the office for 8:30 anyway.
Back home for about 2pm as had afternoon off. Got tent set up but little dog doing a funny sneeze so took her up to vets. They said they couldn't find anything so we brought the little baby home. Took her another walk about 6:30 but she still sneezing - must be pollen or something. Lucy's mates came for a sleepover so we could hear them talking until 2:30 in the morning so bosskat stook her head out the window and told em to go to sleep.
Saturday 12th July 2014
Think they were awake by 7:30 which was when I came back from fetching papers. They wanted piccy B's for breakfast so went and fetched them. Did bits and bobs in garden and down the lotty. No golf this weekend - don't know why - John must be away. Saturday afternoon I got the tent took down before the rain came.
Sunday 13th July 2014
Up early dog walked. Lucy's birthday and she set her main present up more or less on her own bless her. She wanted a graphics tablet so that's what we got her. She had lots of other good stuff too. Went down the lotty about 11:30, weeding and general tidying up. Got a bed set up for two different kinds of Radishes and planted about 18" of em. Got them netted up which I do with pretty much everything at the moment. Lunch/Tea at Stepping Stones - all good stuff. Took mum and dad to see lotty afterwards - think they were impressed! Took pooch for a walk through the big field where we go sledging when snow comes - cracking walk never been round it before.
