I've cleaned out one of our kitchen cupboards this morning, I've come to the conclusion that we could probably restock our Avon lady if she runs short.

Is that a euphemism or did you actually sweep with a brush under the bed

I did genuinely sweep under the bed. With a broom.

I mopped it too, but I have a wooden floor; I wouldn't suggest it with a carpet.

(As an aside: So. Much. Dust...)

Did you have a vet on standbye with a dart gun?

No, but it was a heavy broom...

Merino socks shrink easily when washed...

I had a half dozen Norwegian wool socks which were just chucked into the washing machine at 30 degrees and never shrank. Expensive, but as we owned the shop I got a generous discount.

There are times when l am fluid in gibberish, or gobbledygook at a pinch, depending on my intake of stimulating beverages

That's one more than me that you can put on your CV.

That's reassuring!

Mild, grey and blustery here chez Casa Reynard.

I slept well (Madam Lexi stayed on throw at the foot of the bed) and did some gentle puttering around this morning. This included doing a load of laundry and tidying up one a kitchen cupboard that had got a bit cluttered.

About to have an early luncheon, as I have the car booked in for an MOT at 3pm.

My laptop does not like Firefox, btw. It is hideously slow.

I am getting very frustrated with websites and software not working properly without any apparent reason.

At some point I'm going to have to leave the pub and get the train home.

A little end of the month treat to myself - a 3 hour bike ride in the south Norfolk countryside followed by a pub lunch & a few 🍺🍺

Unfortunately to be followed by 9 straight days of tedium at work from tomorrow.

My mother started getting mice in her house so she bought poison.
One mice was found dead in the morning. She was lying in a frying pan.
