Mines just been emptied

Our Black Bin is usually emptied quite early. However, the Garden & ♻ Bin's (next Wednesday's collection) is not until the afternoon!

New laptop being delivered today 1220-1320 say Parcelforce. Had booked today off but with the need to go back to the hospital for the X ray, thinking Friday afternoon as I expect there will be rush tomorrow, am going to cancel that leave for typically a less than exciting WAH day.

Sun is rising and full on the workshop window. I've had to close the blinds and put the lights on until it moves around a bit.

The natural light is too bright, so you've blocked that out, as best you can, and put the artificial lights on so you have some light!

Where is this sunshine the weather peeps keep talking about ?
It's grey and wet here !

The recently erected post that we can see out of our fr upstairs windows now looks like it has a CCTV camera attached to the top of it

I asked my friend who used to be a postman and he said what I thought that my parcel should have been on the van I saw this morning.

I said that the old system where you went to the sorting office the next day to collect your parcel if you missed it was much better. Delivering it twice surely can't be cost effective and also likely to lose things ! They seem to have lost my lens filter already!

maybe it fell between the delivery van's seat cushions

maybe next time we should order something bulky with our small items, like maybe a bag of popcorn? something big but cheap. but we'd have to be sure the orders were combined for delivery in fewer PKGs together

Apparently the only reason they can install these is if there's been significant anti-social behaviour occurring in that specific area.

So ... wotcha been doin?
