Gold for Mo!

Tom Daley got a Bronze and Mo got his second Gold! Set off at appx 10.00am throught Shortwood tunnel. Stopped at Alvechurch Marina and decide the explore the town which is about a 10 minute walk away. Had Sunday lunch at the Red Lion, Steve said his beef was a little overdone but overall we were all pleased with our choices. Stocked up at the Coop and then walked back to Averina. Steve is feeling a little under the weather so we've dosed him up on Lemsips and he's having a lie down. Not sure if it's hayfever or a cold. Went as far as Hopwood winding hole and filled up with water and disposed of rubbish. Tried several stops for TV signal on the return journey but in the end returned to our morning spot as we knew we had a great signal there.

Had a journey full of wildlife today. Herons, ducklings, swans, signets, orrhens & dragonflies. Didn't see many butterflies though.

Really warm sunny evening. Finished my book "Me before you" in the sunshine with a G&T.

We watched the closing ceremony but Jen and I got a bit spooked by the sheer number of spider crawling around the ceiling. Shut all the windows as that is how they were getting in. Suppose it's that time of year.
