Another milk shake run. Flavours this weekend are cherry bakewell, biscotti, Baileys & chocolate.

Got two cherry bakewells as it smelt and tasted incredible. Also picked up a cheddar cheese truckle from The Cheshire Cheese company.

Decathlon have just notified me that my merino socks are now ready for collection. I'm not sure that I'm ready for collecting them just now. It looks grey and cold out there.

They stopped doing the large bars of Fruit and But years ago.
Nowt wrong with Dairy Milk, other than the bars are getting smaller.

My aquarium cracked a month or so ago. I re-homed the fish, gave away some of the plants and sold some of the other bits & pieces. This pump is the last bit to go.
I'm not restarting another one as tanks are so expensive! I've made my own in the past, but even just the right quality glass is bloomin' dear!!

I got started in 7th grade/middle school. we had a project in science class to keep fish. at the end of the year, the Teacher asked if anyone wanted any of the supplies. my friend Tom took the pump & filter & I took the tank. my life would never be the same. fond memories of searching for & selecting plants & pumps over the years. even bought some plants via mail order, decades before Amazon. do ppl even remember mail order & C.O.D. (cash on delivery)?

how's everyone's weekend going? mine is OK. got it 2 rides & heading to my 2nd job soon
- took a break from visiting the parental unit. she's holding her own, but I don't like that she is alone so much
- still need to get Son to a car dealership, but that's no emergency, just a big one on the to-do list
- went out for the annual "sip & stroll" in our little town, w/ Wifey last night. we spent most of it at art shops w/ friends/artists. bought 2 packs of greeting cards I'll give as gifts, I declined the cookies but enjoyed the free wine

Later today, or next week, probably both, I am going to try to change my bank.

Current bank obvs have no intention of communicating with me. Long story short, I changed my mobile phone number, and cannot tell them the new one, except by visiting the local branch. They in turn have a disinclination to open, or even say when they are going to be open.

So... I am going to change banks to one where customer service is on-line.

What do I need to do that?

Patience = yes got that
Emergency rations = unopened chocolate orange = yes
Maternal Grandmother's maiden name? no idea
Crystal Ball = no, not yet

Can you think of anything else I need?
