What's for breakfast on the walking days?

Perhaps not, but then on these occasions I am woken by 1 or 2 kids wanting to engage me in some form of topical debate. This I accept is my own fault.

Certainly would not be sleeping beyond 7 no matter. Not a hope.

My alarm goes at 6am Mon-Fri and on Saturday morning with no alarm I wake at the same time. It's all I can do to lay in to 7am.

Plus, the kitchen on your own early in the morning is a wonderful thing. Cup of tea, Charlie Parker, a fire if it's a tad chilly, the morning papers, perhaps a Madeleine or two to nibble on, hopefully the patter of rain on the glass roof to make you feel safe and cosey...

Bálls to all that. A nice sub-23 minute 5k to get the blood pumping, that's what to do at 6 a.m. at the weekend.

I can associate with this apart from the tea bit, and Charlie Parker as I don't know who he is, I would have to nip out for papers which is not ideal and I am more a malted milk man than a Madeleine.

Miles Davis, John Coltrane, bit of Acid Jazz.

That is my limits in this respect.

I may investigate Parker.

Depends entirely on how rapidly v gets herself sorted. If she takes too long in the bathroom and time is running short, a slice of toast and a yoghurt. If she's on top of things, eggs and bacon.

I also prepare 2 flasks of tea and a hipflask of brandy.
