Not really "mundane",as i've just seen some git driving a tipper truck over a zebra crossing while someone was stood there waiting for him to stop and let them cross. The reason the driver didn't stop was because he was texting on his phone!

Tipping down with snow here. Not what I was expecting from the forecast.

You believed them!

"It's going to get warmer this year", was one from last week.

What about shorts?

Yes, I could turn up the hem on a pair of your shorts. Shall I make you another pair from the fabric I have to cut off?

I had a fleece jumper that was slightly too small, and I made it into a sleeveless jumper. I cut off the sleeves and used that fabric to make it bigger. Sometimes when I am gardening, it is too warm for a shirt and jumper, so the sleeveless one will be ideal. Or if it is very cold, it can be an extra layer over a long-sleeved blouse, and under a long-sleeved fleece.

The next item is a pair of trousers that need to be made smaller in the waistband.

Same here. Yesterday I re-potted some escallonia plants (grown from cuttings) that needed to have fresh compost and a larger pot. I do not think I need to water them today. The end of the garden is very windy so I will be putting them there to provide some wind resistance, when they are bigger. There are ten plants that will ready to plant when the soil has warmed up. Not only I am saving money, but it is the satisfaction of growing them myself, for virtually nothing, except my time and labour.

Growing from seeds and cuttings is vert rewarding
