Yes, we are sat on the sofa together!

It is the only "celebrity" programme that I watch. I like the music. Imo it is just light entertainment for early Saturday evening.

Celebrity SAS?

Celebrity SAS?

Absolutely not, nor Chef, Baker, Survivor or Candlestick maker.

Just trying to work out the music they'd have in the background on that one.

I'm nearly up.

It's one of those mornings when a coffee is definitely the best choice for the first drink of the day. And a good time to add another layer of bedclothes because I was not quite warm enough last night.

Yesterday I learnt that if you phone DPD customer services about 3 consecutive failed deliveries, they ask you ''What do you want me to do?'' and then they ring off when you tell them.

It's not one of those "celebrity" programs the pair of you are watching, is it!!

Not sure if we are the only people watching it though.

I would like to point out that we have a gap on the sofa between us though 😉

Well the weekend has been flushed away.
First cuppa is brewing.
Dark outside.

Bluey grey sky
Dry underfoot
Looking at the weather forecast I think our butt should be full by end of the week.

 

[Squirrel Chaser]

Grey meh here.
Going to walk with the dog then start tinkering with my new bike.

I can confirm that we have a frost on the garage roof for the first time since early in the year.

Ultrasound morning at the hospital so breakfast has been two small glasses of water. Lack of anything of substance indicates use of the car, which will allow for some necessary frozen food shopping on the return. Line manager has said I do not need to book it off so best do a touch of work before heading out.

Usual undecided start to the weather today. Should be much the same as last couple of days with sunshine from mid morning.
Shopping day which has lead to a bit of misunderstanding by family. I thought they were going to give me a lift into town to get shopping before going home but they think they are getting a list from me and doing shopping for me. Negotiations continue but nobody can do my shopping satisfactorily so if they do it I will have to be back as soon as I can get a day return booking on the ferry.
Rally traffic leaving Mull by Fishnish/ Lochaline is now diverted on to a temporary one way system as previously they simply blocked all traffic coming on to Mull from the ferry by incompetent and inconsiderate parking.
When my wife died I could not get home as the road was blocked and they saw no reason to cooperate.
My reactions are not for publication.

First time here too, though it's now thawed.
