Season of Mists

2020-12-01

---

It is the season of mists here in the UK, November has been a long month. The shortening of the days combined with the return of Lockdown in England and having been hauled back to the depressing beige Purgatory of the office has plunged my life into darkness and I've been somewhat stuck in the hamster wheel: eat, sleep, work repeat.

I've failed to make good use of the weekends or do any tinkering with the Linear. My riding has been has been restricted to pootling around some of the quieter local lanes in the dark after work.

I'm very much a summer child and never adjust well to the comming of winter but the lack of usual routines to give me a kick up the arse has dropped me into a deeper funk than usual.

On the plus side, I've made it to December which will provide me with more opportunity to break the cycle.

Next week we're fortunate to be able to head up north where we have use of a cottage in a small market town for the week. We'll be allowed outside, in daylight! There'll be opportunities to walk, ride or just light a fire and chill.
