Not today, Josephine!

Aaah, well it was a good plan, to invite everyone out the following week.

But everyone is busy (who got back to me) - so I will abandon the second attempt and leave May alone.

Hopefully the weather will be better in June.

Seeyou soon,

Sue

Rain stopped play!

I think I forgot to mention - although I will go out whatever the weather on my bike, and ladies rides go ahead regardless - when it comes to children I am likely to cancel.

I have always held the philosophy that for me, if it rains, I get wet.  If it is raining when I set off, I am going to get wet.  However, for my children - although they have been out in the rain - I have always thought not to drag them out if it is cold and wet (especially when they were younger and in childrens seats).

On my own!
 On the other hand, I am eternally optimistic.  So rain at 9 O'clock does not necessarily mean a 1pm ride will be cancelled.  I am tempted to wait till, oh, say 5 to 1 before I decide!

So, although a few people had said they were coming, only one family turned up.  I had also been running late so did not even have my daughter with me, nor had I had any lunch.

(note to self, must get organised!)


One family braved the gloom!

Anyway, I have evidence of family participation here; and they set off to the Blue Moon (my back up plan for yesterday's ladies ride!).

I am proposing to try again next week, if anyone is free?
