So you would think but I got offered some yellow sticker supermarket crisps the other day, Nice looking sea salt and balsamic vinegar....

They were clearly cheese and onion which I very much dislike.

Whoops!

I *love* cheese & onion crisps. Salt & vinegar, not so much.

Anyways, time to feed the cat, and then it will be time to feed me.

Largely dull day with a noticeable wind. Postie brought the new bathroom sink tap and I thought maybe my new ebike battery had turned but it was a small vacuum for a neighbour. Thinking about I suppose I am going to get a demand to pay customs on it first. Bird feeder refilled again - noticed the blackbird is a bit of a bully. Waits for a small bird to be feeding and flies up to it forcing it off the feeder in the hope it drops what it is feeding on onto the ground

Any left? Hah!

In any case, it's not worth arguing for the sake of 29p...

No evidence to prove it wasn't what it said on the packet then!

Evening cuppa and a jaffa cake went down well
Even added a few more pieces to latest jigsaw

Ive just been watching Monaco Grand Prix Historic on ITV 4. It's far more exciting than F1.

I'm sure that East Anglia really needs the extra rain we're having - I could almost see some ground under the water as we crossed the Ouse/Welney washes on the train on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Fabby supper of a seafood stick & salad sandwich, followed by a generous portion of bread & butter pudding

Let me know when the ark comes to a stop, I will send over a pigeon

That's me off to Silverstone for some R & R & R (rest, relaxation & racing) on Saturday as the ticket has just been purchased. Friday could be an expensive day as, just having the pension payment arrive in my bank, I can start sorting out a couple of hotel bookings and some rail tickets.

Send a raven first...

Send a raven first...

Though I think a wet suit, snorkel and flippers might be way more useful...

A young woman just called to check my front door. I now know that it's an FD60, while the corridor fire doors are FD30. She thought my intumescent strip was pretty neat. Oh, and we both discovered that I can set my door to self-close. Which, of course, I don't want because it would be a pain getting things in and out of the flat.

I had a nostalgia moment with her, harking back to the days when doors were pretty simple open and shut affairs on hinges.

Your doors don't have hinges!
What else would you have them doing?

I have them, and no-one is getting them.
They may be needed one day up here.
