Had occasional thunder and lightening and a few showers over the last few hours. Lovely.

Had about 12 spots of rain earlier

Loads of little Tits and sparrows are flitting on & off the bird feeder.. Feeding time for the chicks. There's still three baby sparrows so far. I hope they survive and stay nearby!

Morning.
Taking the car back for them to check out the bonnet catch later. I don't want a repeat of the other night .
The sight of all of the rubbish left on the beaches was disgusting , but then it doesn't look much different to the rubbish left after a pop concert . There should be hefty fines to discourage that type of thing .

Were you expecting the result to be different the second time around.

Well the goalie normally saves it in the replay ‘cos he knows which way it’s going to go.

I think I hate littering/fly tipping more than just about anything else. It shows a total disregard for other people.

The strange thing is, when you talk to other people about this problem they always agree that it’s a disgrace. So who is it that’s doing it? Or are there a lot of liars about? It makes me so mad I could visit the rant thread.

My wife has just had a phone call from her hairdresser and has made an appointment.
She's happy, so I'm happy😊

Morning all. A bit late today: my brain's turned to thick soup and tea doesn't seem to be doing the
business.

Anyhow, some of you will no doubt be tiring of sunset photos, so here's something completely different....

Cast iron. heats evenly, non-stick, if properly seasoned. Stainless gets hot spots. Some have a handle made of spring steel coil for heat dissipation. Many can be found second-hand.

I'll second cast iron, but it is heavy & you need to take care to season it, depending on what you cook. I've not seen any whose handles don't get hot in the UK, but an oven glove sorts that.

If you're not going to use it in the oven, then a wooden handle keeps cool enough.

Well I've been down to the garage to sort some things out . They showed me how the bonnet should be shut .
Got back home and a quarter of an hour later and the alarm went off!
Not sure why ! I will keep my keys close by .
Fingers crossed it doesn't happen again .

 

[Lullabelle]

Will be going home if 15 minutes-the week over, I have lost the will to do anything

Tired and need sleep

I studied Spanish up to A level, so I can understand my email service now that it is written in Spanish.

Along with @Fab Foodie , @TVC * and many more on here.

* I do wish he'd use plates instead of rooftiles and chopping boards though.

You've got to be careful with those roofies!😄
