Absolutely. They've paid 3-bed detached money for a small 3-bed semi because it was immaculate. My house (4/5 bed detached) wasn't much more

And then to rip it all out and start again baffles and annoys me. Looks like windows are going as well because they don't like the cross-hatching: they've been in only 3 months. It's a waste of decent items. Their money is theirs to waste.

And then you wonder why some people always moan that they're broke...

Doesn't that damage the keyboard?

Not if it just a gentle tap dance.

Don't get that here. I get the heffalump tortie dance.

Lost track of the number of times I've had to put the keys back. Although one or two are broken beyond repair, but fortunately they're not ones I use much...

Talking about the heffalump tortie dance I'm currently being treadled into submission by mine

Ah, give her a chin tickle from me

I'd hoped to get one proper night ride in before this stupid 5km restriction thing but it is absolutely pouring down, so much so that I think i might build myself an ark instead. Anyone know where I can buy some gopher wood and get a tape measure graduated in Cubits?

Ah go on, go on, go on. You'll regret it if you don't

There's a wicked speed bump on the way into Lidl's car park. A rather over enthusiastic bunny hop catapulted my pannier off the bike entirely! That's never happened to me before.

I looked on line for some plastic clips, £2.80 per clip! The door needs 6. I've ordered a tube of Tiger Seal .

My step-granddaughter has been sent home after possible contact with coronavirus victims at her school. That's my support bubble out of reach for a little while. Meanwhile, my SiL is in A&E after being shot in the eye with an airgun by my grandson and my daughter is suffering from worrying bouts of arrythmia. That's enough chaos for one day!

Hopefully there'll be minimum damage with regards the eye. And your support bubble will return to normal, with no damage done.

I'm sure it will return to normal, albeit the new normal. I'm not sure how long I should wait before going back into the bubble.

Thought it was when isolation ended.

Orange and apple marmalade made - from a WW2 recipe by Marguerite Patten.

I'll be damned, it's bloody good.

Not bad for some orange peel and a bunch of windfall Bramleys...

I can terbuchet a tin bath over. But you may need to patch it prior to use.
