First cuppa went down well
Just starting to get light and some blue sky is starting to appear.

Time to place a deposit on a new ark

But should I have it with petrol, diesel, hybrid or electric propulsion 🤔

With all the animals on it what about methane powered?

Morning.
Grey and damp here but the sun is trying to break through.
I will be back painting the walls later. Van Gogh painted sun flowers and a chair . I get to paint walls !

I wouldn't paint your sunflowers. The paint would kill them.

Good morning from Nottingham where the sun is starting to appear from behind the clouds.

I may have overdone the cooked breakfast 🍽️

If I press the flush on my cistern and push the Soft Close toilet seat, they both finish at the same time!
It can't be a coincidence..

Have you measured the time it takes?
Might a significant number.
Could be the new π
How do you synchronise the push and lower actions?

I have been left unsupervised.

But it's tipping down. Too wet to cycle.

But I have the car. When we became a one car family I thought we had a car. I've learned it is her car and it might be available to me if I ask nicely and it's convenient

No fiddly odd jobs in the garage.
Not conducive to washing the bike.
On the edge of needing the heating on indoors.
Time for a cup of tea and some active procrastination.

Watching our pyracantha bush that has a couple of sparrows moving around on the outer branches and taking the occasional berries en route.

About an hour and a half from home. A mug of coffee will be taken and then out again to get food for work and home for the week.

Not too bad outside just now but a bit damp earlier.
So far I have had 6 text messages and one email from BT and Openreach.
At about 0800 one said "our engineer Douglas is approaching your house" and sure enough Dougie appeared at 10 minutes past. Plugged in various things and told me the internet would be down but it would be about 10 minutes. Not far off 5 hours later I am back on line as complication upon complication appeared involving nearly every connection between me and the exchange, including twice climbing to the top of a pole just outside my house.
Just as well I got it fixed as the internet connections were a bit dodgy as well as the phone.

Active procrastination? Can you do that with a mice pie and a cup of coffee?

I have about umpty thousand things that need doing, but cannot decide where to start.
So I shall sit down and decide which are the Very Important Things, and which are the Things I would like to Do.

What is the protocol if I think it is important to do the Things I Like?
