I have been parked in the lingerie dept of M&S.

Woman stuff is going on

Places like that need a waiting room for men. My wife and daughter used to leave me in the Moddelers Den for them to look after me. Sadly the shop has gone.

Oh what a lovely grey day.
The old WW2 turret sold for £2,600 in the end.
Oh! And if you have got an original toy Darth Vader in pristine condition still in it's packaging, one sold yesterday for £850 plus commission.

Ours goes weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee every now and then. Not sure what it's doing.

I think it is the compressor kicking in .

Why is it that if you open a door to let a cat through they will always find something very important that needs sniffing whilst half way through?
We are on our second cup of hot drinks, ' spose we'll have to get up soon.

I've got nothing to do today, I wonder when I'll be finished.

[QUOTE 4697004, member: 21629"]Side effect of laser eye surgery.
When you walk in town at late evening/night you simply see cars with dipped lights on and traffic/street lights and don't pay any attention at all.
Dipped lights and even traffic lights are like powerful light beams for my eyes. Anti-glare glasses reduced that annoying effect to normal level.[/QUOTE]

I find them a problem, and I haven't had surgery.

Decided to switch my second cuppa in bed from tea to coffee

It's raining. We're out later for Mr K's special birthday lunch then family are coming back here for cake and candles so I'd better go and finish the decorating.

I still haven't done anything.

I still haven't done anything.

You'll never get it all done, procrastinating like that.

In other news, I'm researching User Stories for my new project Mavolio*, named after this chap. This sort of thing:

As a wish-I-could** raconteur, I'd like to entertain audiences with my wit, eloquence and erudition.

* No, Chrome, not Ravioli...
** A variant of wannabe for those who've come to terms with such things.

Boudicca's return home was delayed. I shall be picking her up shortly. I've also had Mr R's old bike sorted and it shall be added to my stable. Just got to get a new dynamo front light sorted for it.

Does this mean you are thinking of taking up cycling and becoming one of us?
I had you down more in the TVC camp, none cycling cc'er

Just back from a breezy 25 miler, there is a lot of debris on the country lanes.

Well, quiet here today.

Son on way back from Skiiing, missus off on a hen doo.

Off out shortly to get supplies for my daughter's History project. They have to make a WW1 trench, so were off out to make a chocolate cake and buy marzipan, matchmakers chocolate, Cadburys fingers, and some plastic soldiers !

The missus is off on her niece's hen do - 29 women going. Go-carting this afternoon, then a meal and clubbing in Chester tonight (my niece's University Town).

The chief bridesmaid has booked a local hotel, except it's a hotel with some nasty chalets at the rear (looks like Pontins) but what do you expect for £35 a night each. I said 'good luck' - you wouldn't catch me in them, they looked terrible. I don't suppose 29 women would be allowed in the Doubletree Hilton.

Reminds me to find out what's being booked for my brother's stag do in Budapest - better be decent - we've only got a handful of us going, so should be easier to find somewhere, and we are all mid 30's plus !!
