    Weekend! Spent Saturday morning doing jobs on the cars – quick wash of the outside pair and hooked up the two garaged SLKs to chargers as they are hardly being used so good to keep the batteries topped up. Did the lawns again – we’re definitely now in “Spring mode” and a cut is needed each week. Afternoon job was reconfiguring the WiFi to remove the "notspot" in Claire's bedroom - we now have 3 WiFi access points in different parts of the house - our experience is that the 5GHz works much better than the 2GHz.

    Weather was fine and the afternoon bike ride was just a short MTB around Byfleet and Brooklands with Claire. In Byfleet we did the detour down the river Wey in the SE area up to Byfleet Manor (one of the venues in Downton) – it was covered in scaffolding, so the photo is not mine but stock off the internet. Came back over M25 which was very quiet again. Evening meal was a BBQ – lovely burgers and sausages and we then retired to watch the excellent episodes 2 and 3 of “Quiz”.
