MIL visiting for long weekend. She wanted a visit to the casino tonight, I won £15, which whist not setting the world alight was better than the £20 loss I had budgeted for.

Got the B****r! It's out. If I didn't have one of those vibrating cutting tools I'd still be there struggling. The amount of sealer they used to bond it to the wall was ridiculous.
I'm going to have a rest now.
Again Nah, it's quite common to use a couple of tubes of silicon to seal a bath properly it does not bond the bath in place. Problems arise if you don't use sufficient to do the job well, why skimp on something that's cheap. With a well fitted bath no silicon is visible after the tiling and if it is then the bath has been fitted by an amateur (whether they do it for a living or not)

Oh and another tip, don't use the cheapest silicon, you want the 30yr guarantee quality stuff and plenty of it after all who wants a bath that leaks if you splash any water up the tiles a couple of years after it has been fitted (the only way to fix that is to remove the bath and start again)

Thats a first, I got asked for I D in Morrisons this morning! You would have thought the grey hair, beard and wrinkles would be a clue to the fact I'm old enough to buy the bottle of Old Speckled Hen thats in my shopping basket.

A while back a lady serving in M&S, eyes twinkling, asked if we had any id because we had a bottle of wine in our basket, we both saw the funny side and laughed along, their job must be quite tedious at times adding a bit of a giggle helps the day along. There was a story in the news a while ago when a retired gentleman was asked for id, he took offence and complained... we were not offend just took it in the humour it was meant.
 
It is nice and sunny here with a bit of a breeze blowing. I was just talking cycling theory with a postman. The theory being whether or not he will have enough energy for a cycle ride later this afternoon, I said that I was lumbered with bath time fun but that will be postponed for a while as I can hear the fairies knocking. We did talk about some of the cycle routes in our locality and a hill above Lacock where I used to fall off on the first bend due to a lack of momentum, he said that he could get as far as the Rising Sun pub which is a lot further up before giving up.

This evening, after being in the garden until 8pm. So I had some Yorkshire Provender soup, as recommended by @User. It was accompanied by hot buttered toast. As it was the spicy Indian Vegetable one, I wondered if it would be betterer with some Naaaaaan bread.
Naan but the best for you Speicher!:okay:
The bracken on Claife Heights has shot up in the last week or two.
