Break out the Good Biskits!!!

I've finally solved the puzzle of where a particular newspaper clipping in my archive was from. It's only been bugging me for, erm... Well, no...

Put it this way, when my (original) scrapbook got trashed by bullies at school, they'd pulled the clippings and articles off their pages, and as a result, I lost the information as to where I'd got them from. Some, like those from Autosport and Motoring News were pretty obvious, but others weren't.

It's so nice to finally be able to pin it down.

The clipping is from "Today" btw. Remember that one?

Trying to work out whether to go ahead with a quote I've had for solor panels, battery, etc. At £7500 to £8000 depending on the number of panels it's a lot of money (for me - especially as a low energy user), but as I'll be at home more from next year it could be worth it in the long term.

You do not "need" a battery. I was advised that battery technology is improving all the time, and to defer buying the battery.

I think I'd better bank the fire for the night and tootle off to the Land of Nod via a nice hot bath.

Nunnight one and all xxx

Time for a ride

Good morning. First cuppa going down.

I'm trying a new lighting effect in the apartment this morning.

You can imagine the excitement.

I'm nearly up.

Back after a short test ride
First cuppa going down well
The trail camera has been knocked through 90 degrees last night so something didn't want a picture doing?

Well the first cuppa went down well
Another blue sky morning

Looks like another miserable wet day in prospect.
Now I have to wait for OVO to give a sensible reply regarding their ridiculous bill but they say this could take at least 48hours.
They say their customer care centre is very busy which is hardly surprising given their behaviour so far. Unfortunately I expect to be away all day tomorrow which cannot be changed due to the Calmac ticketing system. Life gets very complicated.
My account has been frozen they say so I will not yet instruct the bank to block any payments to them.

Good morning from Suffolk where yet again it's a bright and sunny start to the day and the first cuppa of the day has just been finished. Once breakfast has been had I'll be loading one of my bikes into the car and heading off to Cambridge and the surrounding area for a few hours of pootling around and trying to avoid the tourists.

Thanks for the info @Speicher , it's one of the things I'm factoring in to the overall costs.

Morning.
It is sunny here with cloud moving in. It is a bit chilly out. I've just been swapping my bikes round as I'm not too sure which one to take this morning.

Second cuppa is ready for drinking
