Forgot to mention yesterday I got a puncture but lucky me I was only a couple of hundred yards from a bike shop so replaced my tube. Today cycle round our usual route into town this makes the trip 1 ½ hr into town but so lovely. Farmers market? After lunch cycle down to The Quay again as I noticed a black swan in the morning and wanted a picture.
The black swan (Cygnus atratus) is a large waterbird, a species of swan which breeds mainly in the southeast and southwest regions of Australia. Within Australia, the black swan is nomadic, with erratic migration patterns dependent upon climatic conditions. It is a large bird with mostly black plumage and a red bill.
Cycle into Poole very windy so not more than 2 hour cycle today spotted the new rope work sculpture being put together.

Tried a cycle to Lyme Regis but to steep so cycled down to Charmouth to look at Dorset Leisure caravans (parts) but far too expensive. Back for lunch shower then a walk down onto the beach a good sunny day.
