Survived. Lots of pictures and some videos provided by various agencies (Bless 'em) hid most of the gaps in my knowledge...

Wasn't that cheating?

I am unable to obtain a chocolate bar from the vending machine because the person responsible for filling it hasn't labelled the products. View attachment 611561

"A" is usually the bottom shelf, with the numbers reading left to right.
Or the shelves are numbered from the bottom, with the letters running left to right.

Easy work out!

Just watched a video of Joss Lowden's women's hour record attempt. Well worth watching, even if just watching it exhausted me!

You'll be knackered if we all watch it then.

Hmmm, access to CycleChat is fine (obviously, since I'm here), Book of Faces is fine, as is the Bay of E and my web mail.

Suspect the problem is somewhere else other than at my end.

Time to visit the Land of Nod I think.

Hope I get a seat on the bus.

In our B&B someone in the room next to us - beyond our bathroom - is a loud snorer

Got my flu jab.

Saturday afternoon for me - booked so that it can be done on the way home from work.

I get mine because I'm getting old.

There's not many getting younger these days.

So...with today being the first proper autumnal day, when do you all put the heating on? I'm trying to persuade Mrs T to hold out till half term, esp with the burgeoning gas prices. And forecast for next two weeks looks like it's not going to dip too far in to single figures.

She has a pretty hefty dressing gown and fleecy slippers so I don't know what she's complaining about and as for mini T, I think he could hold out till December!

Do I have any fellow misers or are you all it'll-come-on-when-thermostat-says-it-needs-to pragmatists?

November.

And then only for a few hours on low in the evening when I'm home from work. Other times are what jumpers/fleeces, etc are designed for as I find an over heated house uncomfortable.

Mmmm, did you look into getting a replacement keyboard? I've done that in the past.

This laptop is missing a couple of keys, but nothing critical. Small bits of plastic don't to too well with 5kg of tortoiseshell cat landing on them...

I do need a spare power cable thingy for it though, as I keep one upstairs and one downstairs, and the downstairs one is knackered.

Quick update from Wednesday. First live music event in 18 months was most needed - I'd forgotten how good it was to be able to 'feel' the bass & drums at volume & to be partially deaf for a bit afterwards. Even better is that by slipstreaming HGVs & keeping my speed down on the A14, I can do the next one ( Lanterns on the Lake @ Cambridge's Storey's Field Centre) without needing to get more diesel.

Thursday - mostly good news. Had an email advising that another gig been put back to next year, but found four more to book up for(!) and all I needed to do was swap one day off at work. Did sweet FA all day apart from one bike ride.

Friday will be ironing, bike maintenance, an evening in Ipswich and wondering how on earth I'm going to cope with going back to work early on Saturday morning.

I've drunk my and saved my writing efforts and now it's time to head off up the wooden hill.

Nunnight one and all xxx
