Once Morgan was up and the baking was all under control I stopped for some breakfast and watched Gardeners World on the iPad whilst Morgan watched the Simpsons Movie. It was then time for more cleaning and a couple of hours tidying up the <a title=\"A Marvellous Mauve May\" href=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/2013\/a-marvellous-mauve-may\/\">garden which is starting to look really nice<\/a> ready for the summer.<\/p>\n<p>I then got ready to go out and meet Dennis and Sophie up at Pendam for a Mountain Bike ride. They hadn&#8217;t ridden here before so I showed them around the Summit Trail which they seemed to enjoy. The weather was kind to us, overcast with the odd sunny spell but not too cold and best of all, dry. Even the trails were pretty dry for the most part. The ride itself was fairly uneventful, no mechanicals, no incidents and we all had a good time.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-13482 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/dry_trails.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"120\" height=\"90\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/dry_trails-120x90.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Dry, Dusty Trails\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-13483\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/dry_trails-120x90.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/dry_trails-550x412.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/dry_trails.jpg 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 120px) 100vw, 120px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-13483'>\n\t\t\t\tDry, Dusty Trails\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Mark-of-Zoro.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"120\" height=\"90\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Mark-of-Zoro-120x90.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Mark of Zoro\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-13484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Mark-of-Zoro-120x90.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Mark-of-Zoro-550x412.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Mark-of-Zoro.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 120px) 100vw, 120px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-13484'>\n\t\t\t\tMark of Zoro\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Dennis.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"120\" height=\"90\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Dennis-120x90.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Dennis\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-13485\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Dennis-120x90.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Dennis-550x412.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Dennis.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 120px) 100vw, 120px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-13485'>\n\t\t\t\tDennis\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Sophie.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"120\" height=\"90\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Sophie-120x90.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Sophie\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-13486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Sophie-120x90.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Sophie-550x412.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.alananna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Sophie.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 120px) 100vw, 120px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-13486'>\n\t\t\t\tSophie\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl>\n\t\t\t<br style='clear: both' \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>It was then back to our house to chill in the conservatory and compare Strava segments before Anna and I cooked up a delicious dinner of homemade chicken satay, noodles, carrots and favourite at the moment, Apple and Lime Raita &#8211; It all sounds quite simple but it is a combination of dishes that go really well together.
