Watched Protein: Everything You Need to Know on Channel 4 (UK). Interesting table of recommended intake at ~22 min which makes the point that you need a higher intake if you are, for example, active, elderly or trying to lose weight. Which raises an obvious question…

A little too slippy underfoot for #Royden this morning. Photos from yesterday.

Brief flurry of the white stuff on this morning’s circuit of #Royden. No obvious sign of goosander. Skipped coffee. Still can’t login to BSky but can cross-post from micro.blog.

Interesting. Not only have I been logged out of Bluesky but password and recovery emails aren’t working either.

Gentle circuit of an occasionally frosty #Royden. Now 15 goosander. Coffee at the courtyard but zero snacks as, yes, I am trying to lose a little weight (using NHS app).

Another lazy day. Fleeting visit to #Royden to check out the goosander (down to 4). Access via Montgomery Hill if driving. Happy New Years Day.

Twinge in the achilles today so decided instead to use time wisely in quest to become half man, half panettone. πŸ€”

Afternoon stroll around #Royden. No coffee. About a dozen goosander on the mere. Previously at Six Acre, I think. Quite shy and not interested in standard duck food.
