Was into silver salt spoons for a while, then they suddenly leapt up in price.

I was struggling trying to sort out my electricity account now that I no longer live in my last flat and temporarily live at my parents while I wait to move into my new one but finally got sorted.

Turns out their online portal only works properly on Internet Explorer and I had been trying to use Opera and MS Edge.

Internet Explorer, how quaint. Hadn't used it in a very long time....the 1990s are calling

decidedly insecure.

My wife discovered why our paint roller just sucked up the paint . Apparently it was an ultra plush one . She bought an ordinary fluffy one .
Perhaps that might be better at letting the paint go where it should .

Lovely morning here. Much needed rain late evening last night. I'll still need to go out watering the plants later. The auto watering system has been doing sterling work in the greenhouse. Just added an additional sprayer to the far end as some plants weren't getting much water.

Damp and very overcast here, more like a November than June

Just harvested enough rhubarb for a crumble and enough shoots for another one at the weekend hopefully .

all 3 cats are in after their sunrise romp. yesterday 1 stayed out & I didn't work-from-home to wait for him. Daughter's new summer schedule has her home noon-ish & he was on the patio waiting in the shade. interesting that this morning, one of his siblings stayed with him. wonder if it was as-if to indicate, "look buddy, you stressed us out yesterday. all you have to do is come in when called, ok?"

Maybe try Netscape next time... 👍

No thanks, America On-Line for mine.

Equally a bit of a crossbreed... Cockney born, Gooner bred... But a mixture of Belgian, German and Polish.

Suspect there may also be some Ashkenazi Jewish lurking in the German side of things.

Sounds very American. Irish,(by way of Normandy and Vikings) Bavarian (from the Rhineland Palatinate, so very close to Switzerland and France), Dutch, Welsh and English, with a smattering of Scots and Native American thrown in, so I'm told. May also have some Ashkenazi Jewish in the Bavarian side of things. But Anglo-Irish was the dominant culture in the household.

All ready for sampling

I've just cleaned the screen on my tablet.

Can you see me better now ?
