One last and then I'm off to soak my aches, pains and bruises in a nice hot bath.

Nowt serious I hope.

Shouldn't be. Mostly making sure things aren't going sideways.

I had a bit of ham for dinner, with pineapple and escalloped potatoes.
I did not ride the bicycle today, as I had an M.R.I. this afternoon.
I am currently listening to Three Places in New England, by Charles Ives.

I'm assuming that what you call ham is what we call gammon or bacon...

 

[Gravity Aided]

Ham is cured and smoked, and does not need to be cooked before eating. Although it usually is.

Here's to nothing "going sideways" then.

Morning all
14+ smiles done
Showered
Bins out
Cuppa drank
Cat fed

Maneouvered two bins down the drive (at the same time) without running over my toes or bumping into my heels. This is a victory which shall earn me a celebratory cup of tea. Cheers

What sort of idiot goes out in the height of the late morning/early afternoon sunshine for 3 hours on the bike and only puts sunblock on their arms?



My thighs have a very pronounced red colouring up to a very sharp line where they turn white

We probably don't want photos, thanks.

Yawn ! Morning . Yawn !
Sleep deprivation !
What a night ! B ****y burglar alarms !
Everything thing was going fine until the car refused to lock because it said that the bonnet wasn't closed . If I opened the bonnet and closed it so that one side was still open it was happy or so I thought ! An hour later the alarm went off ! Probably a cat . Half an hour later , cat again ? Quarter of an hour off it goes again !
We couldn't have this all night so we called a help line. They would get someone out . In the meantime I curled up on the back seat with the keys and waited.
A breakdown chap eventually arrived and had a look. He tinkered around with the bonnet locks and sprayed some penetrating oil on and shut the bonnet . We waited . It was gone 12 now. He left saying that if it starts up again, to give someone a call who was a Jaguar specialist to come out .
I went back indoors and camped on the settee. Didn't sleep . At 2 I decided to risk going upstairs and lay on the bed. I kept my clothes on just in case I needed to sleep in the car . I didn't get much sleep as I kept listening for the dreaded alarm !
It has been uneerily silent !

I'd have disconnected the battery

Pots watered. Dianthus and petunias deadheaded. Pancakes eaten... 👍🏼

Good morning. I'm up a little late today. But I've eventually got round to taking the recycling down so that makes it a relatively productive morning. It's all gloriously sunny here, by the way. I've got my green sandals on.

I've made a mistake doing my Sudoko

You put a '10' in?

I've done 7 already this morning but I'm as error prone as I'm quick today. More coffee might help.
