A dozen miles round Woodlands

 

A lovely morning for a mountain bike ride round the local roads, paths and tracks. I got to 12 miles and called it a day but it was a very sunny trip with plenty to enjoy in the hedges and on the banks, primroses doing well still and the energing leaves from the deciduous trees and hedgerows. 

That was followed by a bit of cooking with butternut squash soup, dressed lentil dahl and grilled aubergines whilst we had a visit from a guy completing an energy performance certificate for us as part of the application for the renewable heat initiative. It will give us a report into the energy requirements of the house and provide a grading and it is essential as part of the application for RHI. The RHI may allow us to make some money from our air heat pump, so we will see.
