Good morning. To my rather great surprise it seems the weather isn't miserable this morning but the overnight rain has cleared the mugginess away. I think it may be good enough for a short ride after breakfast...
It is amazing how far you can see when the air has cleared.

It's summer in the UK? I wondered what day it would be this year.

Before someone jumps on me, there's some seriously dark cloud approaching here. This is supposed to be the "German Tuscany"... Humpf.

FWIW, the rain trapped me in the summerhouse.

Our chipboard timber started turning a darker colour earlier in the year, it was obvious there was a leak somewhere, I went out & bought some galvanised sheets, put a fibreglass (I think) membrane down then just screwed the sheets to the existing boards, reroofed in under an hour about £150 if I remember correctly

The garage roof seems fine, but it, together with next doors paved area, does contribute to the rising of the local water table above ground level.

I swatted a rather large spider on our bedroom curtains this morning.
A bit of a dilemma followed..
MrsPete is an arachnophobe and it dropped into her handbag 😂 Errrrrr, I mean 😢
Do I tell her? Rummage through her handbag? (I never go through her handbag!!) Or take it downstairs and tell her about the dead arachnid lurking within? 🤔

Good morning all. I just managed to make a pot of tea, something I was incapable of doing yesterday because I couldn't stand up for long enough to make it.

Why swat it. Just chuck it outside or even leave it alone and it will go away anyway.
 
It was our turn to set questions for a zoom quiz.This has been going on for a few weeks now.our son,daughter and their friends.I have been rubbish.I am 70 they are around 23 25 in age.So I got the opportunity to set ten sporting questions.see if you can spot the mistake in one off my first two questions.question one.how many times have Leeds United appeared in fa cup finals.question two name one of their four opponents.I must say it got a very good laugh.
I hope the following were answers to three of your old boys sports quiz?

Teofilo Stevenson
Alberto Juantorena
Mary Peters

It’s not a proper sports quiz otherwise.
