I thought it was Wednesday

I woke up thinking it was Thursday and time for a bike ride, unfortunately it's Tuesday and I'm upstairs decorating the box room again.

Seems you may have a fight on for the chair.

I have had a haircut.

I will get my first go at the new roadworks on the M1 later

I thought the M1 was roadworks.

I do have a coat but it is brown so I can't wear black shoes, my black jacket is short and not really up to nippy weather.

Don't understand the logic there.

Still struggling with sinusitis. Flared up again this arvo. Face hurts and teeth feel five sizes too big.

I have flown United once, when the Fiji Air 747 I was supposed to be on went unserviceable and they hired in a United plane and crew to cover. The surliest, most unhelpful crew and worst food I've ever had, never again.

They haven't let their standards slip then?

Sounds worse that Ryanair. I recall a flight to Stockholm where the cabin crew looked so tired I worried about those up front.

They were just talking about not being able to understand people's voices on the TV and I'm glad I'm not the only one. My daughter often complains that the volume is too loud but I find that where I sit it is hard to hear things properly. The speakers on my TV are at the back and are louder there, there are also places in the room where the sound seems to be focused more. Modern technology!

Sorry I miss read that, I wondered who was sitting in front of the pilots.

Sounds revolting! Hope you are better soon.

I'm defrosting the fridge... it's taking ages as I normally supplement the melting process with a hair drier but I lent mine to one of my children to go on holiday this week!! An hour in and I've still not managed to remove the tray underneath the ice box as it is solidly frozen in at the back!!

(We do have a big other fridge but this small old one fits in our tiny kitchen).

It's the bloomin background music............it seems to almost drown out the voices in some programmes. My dad really struggles with it and keeps turning the volume up but it doesn't really help.
