the EU will make all cell phones use the same charger? brilliant!

Oh great ! Another thing we'll have to queue up for

That was confusing ! I was looking up high pressure fuel pump problems on Minis on my tablet when the same subject appeared on our TV. I thought that perhaps it had come up on a Watchdog type programme . It hadn't ! Somehow the post I was looking at had come up on our TV !

The post man, for it is a man, has just delivered a lateral flow testing kit, although I haven't ordered one since February.

Lime pickle is a great addition to cheese on toast. It's not subtle, though.

For sale: one drum kit, trombone, and clarinet.

The lady opposite does not appreciate my choice of music, and has put her house on the market again. She had put it on the market last year, managed to sell it, but decided to stay.

This is in addition to the three houses further up the street that were for sale and are now sold subject to contract.

Warm, grey and blustery here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept well, which is good, but my get-up-and-go is still AWOL. I have spent most of the morning writing.

I have also dusted off my grandfather's Tissot this morning. While it is rather battered, it does work and I do wind it up periodically. I've cleaned it gently, and I can now see the dial without squinting. The chrome plating is rather manky, but I don't mind the brass showing through. I have been wearing it, but I can't quite decide whether it's comfortable enough. The case is ok (it's a banana-type tank) but I'm not a fan of the wide leather strap.

Anyways, it is time for luncheon, and I has a hungry.

Pembrokeshire: Seal seen 'chilling out' on dinghy

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-61747423

This super-relaxed seal does not have a care in the world as it appeared to have taken a dinghy for a leisurely cruise - complete with a pair of oars.

How about if you were to get the part?
