Morning .
It is grey here, but at least it's not cold and windy.
I almost forgot to put all of our bins out .
There was a Men's Shed adventure / experience day yesterday . We don't do much on Tuesdays so someone had arranged some events that we could sign up for . Yesterday's was archery! I didn't know if it would take place yesterday afternoon as it was cold and windy .
I cycled along to where it was being held assuming it was cancelled . It wasn't! I met another shed man at the gate and followed him to the field where it was taking place . I think 8 or 9 of us turned up. We all had fun despite being hailed on and getting really cold .

I found a good thread on Flicker . It does seem that the number of shots taken has an impact on reliability, mainly the shutter release. One of the posters described how the mechanism has very little lubrication which dries up which can then exert drag causing issues and malfunction .

It's not one of the things you generally think about at the time . It wasn't when we bought ours ! We chose it at the time because it was comfortable to lie on. Our daughter who was living with us at the time was ill and would spend most of the day lying on it .
The sofa wasn't from the same suite but looked very similar in style and colour . The other sofa which was part of the suite was constructed from 2 bucket style seats and so had hard places where the 2 pieces joined and were comfortable when lying down .
We were asked if we had any issues with furniture going through doors before but didn't realize just how big it was . We discovered when it arrived !

Bought a Bluetooth speaker that claimed 12 hours play time. It’s currently up to almost 19 hours playing and still going. Nice when something actually exceeds what was advertised. I guess 12 hours is at full volume, and I don’t need full volume for my use case.

By the time you get round to pay the VED it will have gone up by probably £10.

Dry and sunny but still a bitterly cold N wind.
Need to get out and get my runner beans in and some other garden sorting done.
Just been out to get some eye ointment but it has not yet arrived. Fortunately I always have a good stock in reserve.
When I was out went and filled up the car tank. 180.9p for diesel and paid the VED which was as predicted up by £10 from what the form said.
