Moped

Another sweltering hot day and I had to go for a bit of a Einkaufsbummel (that's a shopping trip but I think it sounds better in German). It's difficult to describe how I was walking at the end of an hour and a half in 40-odd degree sunshine - trying to walk without any of my clothes touching me and wthout bending my legs. Horridly sweaty.

As a consequence, I blipped quickly and I apologise for that. This is a little moped with an owner who hadn't thought things through. It sits under a tree and in that tree is a nest. A nest that is directly over this moped. A nest that contains several big bottomed birds to judge by the sorry state of the moped. It'll need a bit of a wash before it's on the road again.

No song today - it's too hot to dance.
