Another day, another aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!
Did not sleep well as I was overtired. Went to iron my white coat for tomorrow to be confronted by another whopping puddle on the utility room floor. Yep, you guessed it, the fridge has also gone *fzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzt*
The frozen stuff was still frozen thank goodness, so went to collar my good friend Linda at her work. She came and picked up the frozen stuff and shoved it in her freezer, as well as providing an equally temporary home to the stash of salamis and chorizos. My kitchen fridge is now absolutely rammed, but this situation should slowly resolve itself as I'm now not allowed to go anywhere near somewhere selling groceries. In any case, Linda will get a share of what I cooked up yesterday, so that should also make some space in there.
I still had to have another ruthless cull, though. Ergo I did another tip run with all the stuff I can't / didn't want to keep, and also took the chance to dispose of some excess cardboard and packaging.
Also managed to remove the vast majority of the remaining ice from the fridge. That almost ended in disaster, as one of the coolant lines in the freezing compartment split. Contained that, and everything there is now under control. The fridge is stuffed with tupperwares and towels to catch any remaining moisture.
I'm off to the Kensington and Middlesex joint shows tomorrow to steward. It'll be a nice break - and change of pace - from the madness of the last three days. I've apologised in advance to my judge for any impending brain farts.
I'm off for a VERY early night in a bit.

That's why I didn't replace the chest freezer when it went *fzzzzt* a few years back. It's an open invitation to fill it.
It now acts as a storage cupboard for cat food.

I did get a bit of cycling in today, going to see my great grandad and pootling about in the lanes, but after a bit of scran at O'Tacos I got back to my room and felt absolutely destroyed.
I'd planned to ride to Le Touquet on this trip, that won't be happening. Instead I'll get the train over there. I will take the bike, however, cos it's a fair hike on foot from Gare d'Étaples to la plage.

I got another fire starter today. This one for Reform. And on that note, I'm off to bed.

A very nice late morning/early afternoon in the sunshine & light winds making my way to Bury St. Edmunds followed by another couple of hours as the print on the magazine I took with me to read slowly went out of focus while I rehydrated 🍺

First cuppa in hand with a fake custard cream
Looks a bit grey outside but no sign of the forecasted overnight rain by the look of it.
First night without the sling and slept well, just done a few exercises as instructed by my physio yesterday.

Well so far we have had 3 x labour and a single reform one nothing from the other parties involved.

I barely looked at anything that’s come in so far. My mind is made up anyway and the postal vote is filled in ready to post.
