This is more like it for #TenMinMerlin. The robin has lots of company this morning at Squerryes Winery parkrun. Plus the hum of the M25 #parkrun

I presume this is how Churchy normally dresses for commentary. Any questions for the panel? Ollie Pope, WTF do you think you're doing?! (This is how it plays out in my head)

I decided to make a change from my usual macaroni cheese pie and I went with a lasagne one. Easily one of the best pies I have ever eaten. Resisting going in for a second 😋

A special day today as Dad became a freeman* of the City of London, following in the footsteps of such luminaries as Dick Whittington (yes, he was a real person), Nehru, Nelson Mandela, Harry Kane, Barbara Windsor, and Florence Nightingale (not in chronological order). *Not just for men
The declaration of a freeman on a large board with a stuffed life size toy sheep in front

I do solemnly declare that I will be good and true to our sovereign lady Queen Elizabeth II

That I will be obedient to the Mayor of this City; that I will maintain the Franchises and Customs thereof, and will keep this City harmless, in that which in me is.

That I will also keep the Queen’s Peace in my own person; that I will know no Gatherings nor Conspiracies made against the Queen's Peace, but I will warn the Mayor thereof, or hinder it to my power; and that all these points and articles I will well and truly keep, according to the Laws and Customs of this City, to my power.”
