Mines outside awaiting collection

Thanks for the reminder: our recyclables need to go out for tomorrow. The collection is only twice a month so if you miss it things can build up a bit...

It's oh early o'clock.Woke up and got up.I don't want to miss this scan today,10-10.After the visit to Preston A and E late Monday night early Tuesday morning,i think i know what it is,a hematoma .so it's nothing really.It's just going to be interesting to see how they get rid of it.But that won't be happening today,these results will go to my doctor at the surgery,so i am expecting 7 - 10 days before i find out.

Drank Tesco French coffee for years, then when they couldn't deliver over lockdown I swapped to a mixture of Asda & Aldi, but I called in Tesco the other day for something else & picked up a bag, don't particularly like it now

I'm in Microsoft update limbo. "Preparing to configure Windows"

Daughter is back off to college. Had to be up and out at 7am - her choice to pick a college miles away. She's soon going to be fed up with 3 hours a day on a bus.

That's 3/4 of an hour while Microsoft dithers. I think I'll go for a shower.

The shed office is a bit nippy this morning - feeling autumnal, but it's dry !!

I just saw a man in a hard hat standing outside my 5th floor bedroom window. I may have to review my habit of wandering around in various degrees of undress until the works are over.

I've now got to the start up screen.

Crane's going back up.

Think I done it wrong again Dad !

I was doing so well . Looks like I shouldn't have rivetted the frame on at the rear until I had fitted the expander bolt at the front . My Brooks leather saddle that is . I'm thinking that I may be able to get enough clearance if I was to drill the nut a bit to allow it to go forward enough to slip in .
Still thinking . There is enough meat on the nut .

Why am I not surprised that Da Boss is an elderly, crotchety tortie... I think she's lovely.

But then I happen to have a "thing" for crotchety torties

Me too, I've had 'Torties' for over 25yrs now (only one at a time mind) my first one 'Kissa' had 2 litters of Kittens one Ginger Tabby and a Black with Tabby markings that you could only see in certain light (as shades of 'blue' black and 'brown' black) as her first (I kept the Ginger Ninja) and the 2nd litter was 3 Black and White (2 girls and a lad) and another Ginger lad (we kept one of the B&W girls)
Kizzy on the other hand has never had Kittens.

"Moon Shot !"

Isn't that what people used to do on photocopiers ?

Up and out at 7a.m.? Sounds like good preparation for joining the work force. Of course, my commute to Uni was twice as far, even by train, so I just came home at the breaks, Thanksgiving, Christmas, sometimes Spring, and Summer.

I think he needs to go to whichever "School of Plain Speaking" that Nicola Sturgeon attended. She gained a double first.

I hope they have a place left in their beginners class. Yesterday's performance was an excellent example of extreme waffle and obfuscation.
