15 mins or so to dash off a post before taking the Silver Bullet to Coops’ garage for a service. Pete is picking me up from there to come back and rack the wine. I have all the gear ready and we have enough demijohns to take the whole 30 or so litres. This is the first time we will have a reading on how much alcohol there is in the brew. It will then be left on a high shelf in the garage to overwinter ready for bottling in the spring.
Feels like a Monday morning, having just returned from an overnighter in Leeds yesterday afternoon. THG has gone out to her strength class. The leaves have returned once more to the lawn. Even the acer by the shed has shed most of its beautiful ruddy bronze foliage. At least we have somewhere to put the fallen leaves now. One winter they just got left there which didn’t do the grass any good at all.

Back early from the garage. Coops gave me a lift. He’s got the window of the fun bus back in place and now just waiting for a part to reconnect the winder.
