Morning all. The house was stifling downstairs when I woke up. Windows and doors open, it’s rather pleasant now.

I was expecting to feel a little off this morning after having my second jab yesterday, fortunately I feel absolutely fine. The next day is when the after effects really hit my wife though so I’m hoping she’s going to be OK this morning.
My wife seems to have no after effects either. She’s more than pleased, after the first jab she was ill for days.

Wind direction is mostly northerly just now so that keeps the temp down a bit. Forecast is for us to get a bit of heat later in the week.
Just realised I have got "recumbent tan" ie the front of my legs are very brown but the backs are fairly pale.
Need to find somewhere to lie face down for a while. Best place is on the grass in my top garden but this is overlooked by a couple of other houses. I live in a neighbourly kind of place and would get no peace with concerned people running up to check I am ok. :blush:

Oh my up early Sunday morning.Down to the cottage,picked up four sacks of garden debris.A 09-00 tip appointment,dumped, back home shower, brekkie now sat in conservatory and waiting to go to hospital for 12-00 scan,then a bit of clearing out something's from the house and another trip to the tip on monday.Tuesday another highlight a trip to Ikea small dining table four chairs and a patio set for the now very tidy but no colour back yard it's not really a garden,very nice paving couple of trees for shade and three small and very sick flower beds,we will put some colour in them.You don't realize how someone brings colour in to your life till they leave,the front bedroom looks awful stripped of its bits and pieces photos pictures personal items.

Found in the Yorkshire hills ...
Son no. 2 has passed his theory test first time with high scores. Everyone else who came out in the first hour appeared* not to have done, compounding my money-making thoughts earlier. Twenty tests per hour, 7 days a week, fully-booked everywhere = a decent earner,

His nonchalant, don't-seem-to-care, attitude to everything belies what he's been doing quietly at home: studying his backside off, reading and practice-testing. It's his approach to schoolwork and pretty much everything else. I do see a little of myself there, in that I used to be described as "so laid-back I'm horizontal", but people didn't realise I spent loads of time reading / writing / studying and just appeared laid-back.

Cue one relieved and impressed parent.

And I've glued part of the sole back on the pair of 12 year-old trainers I've been using for the past 18 months. Going back to work, wearing 'proper' shoes, is going to feel odd. Note to self: need new trainers :whistle:
