Does anyone have a spare pair of fresh legs that I can borrow - 33" inside leg so I don't have to get some new trousers. The current pair are protesting at the past two days cycle commuting with a stiff breeze after a 33 mile mountain bike ride on Friday and Saturday morning's work if walking round in circles for 2.5 miles starting from a crouched position and ending upright 40 times.

(manually pallet wrapping goods ready for sending for destruction.)

I've only got 27" inside leg ones you can borrow, I'm afraid... A bit too short, I reckon. But on the upsides, you wouldn't have to bend down as far while wrapping pallets.

After this morning's slog into the wind along Felixstowe seafront, I'd take anything, even @Reynard 's less tall ones worn with 3/4 length shorts or massive turnups on my current trousers. The bike seat may have to be lowered quite a bit 'though.

Anyhow, good morning from the office in a warm & windy Suffolk. Coffee's on the go and a fresh pack of custard creams has been opened.

Morning.
Well the electrician has been and as with Sods Law the monoxide detector was behaving itself ! . The electrician was wondering if it had got damp . We don't know! It might have just had a tantrum .
Sunny with showers here at the moment , not sure if it will brighten up later .

[Illaveago]

Can you think of a word which roughly means , " Now where did I put my tea ?"

 

[Illaveago]

Absenteeism .

Just back from a short walk.First time I have passed the end of my driveway in three days.I am going stir crazy.

Very blustery, mostly sunny and rather mild here chez Casa Reynard.

I have finished putting the de-quarantined shopping away. Except for the bottle of olive oil that I picked up on clearance, as it's just too tall to fit into the cupboards. It will have to live on the work surface next to the cooker.

I have also cut chips and prepped a mixture of vegetables to steam for tonight's supper, and I am in the middle of making butternut squash and roast garlic soup.

Almost lunchtime.

Still pouring rain

That'll save me the bother of washing the car this month

Day off! Yay. Didn't finish till 2345 last night. By the time I'd done all that had to be done. Vehicle check etc, got home close to 030!!! Will not be popular with the bean counters as that will take me into overtime.
Weather was awful, really scary at times driving through Welsh Countryside with winds pushing the van all over.
Was just enjoying my first cup of coffee when the phone rang, [knew it was work but answered anyway. I'm such a sook!] Could I do them a favour and go into work?
{Brain is screaming, "NO!"} "Yes of course". says I. {Brain; "You are such a girlie sook!} Dressed, drinking 2nd coffee standing by front door, phone rings, work again. "You can't come in as you worked late last night!"
{Brain; "Ha! Get naked and back in bed!} Did as I was told........

They can be affected but dust apparently on the sensor. We had a flood from an upstairs house which was unoccupied which caused extensive damage to two ceilings. One was only partly damaged but the lot had to come down for replacement. Dust everywhere and our CO2 detector kept turning on. Once the ceiling was done cleaned the whole thing up as best as possible and no more trouble.
