Today I fitted a tank protector, then went out for a hour or two the temperature hit 29 🥵
Doing some more running in miles around some Essex villages, stopping to take this picture at the Mountnessing windmill which was built in 1807 and was restored to working order in 1983.
Later I stopped at a shop to get a bottle of water, ( there were 2 big steps outside and as I am still not good on my feet I decided not to tackle the steps )
Instead I asked a group of youths who were standing outside if one of them would go in and get me a bottle of water, and I was told that the shop had run out of water, but one of them said I will go in and ask if they have any out the back, he came back and said no they haven’t, so I thanked them for trying and turned towards my bike I then heard Excuse me and one of the lads was holding a bottle of water in his hand saying I have only taken a sip but you are welcome to it, I said yes please holding out some money but he said I don’t want anything for it, what a lovely thing to do my faith in the youth at that point helping out a thirsty, hot & sweaty :old
