Yep... I always like to read the news while sat on the porcelain throne. :blush: Mind, I also have a substantial bookcase in my bathroom too.

We always kept the lid down when not in use as one of our cats seemed to prefer drinking from the bowl rather than the supplied dish. Frightened it would slip and end up head first in the water and impossible to get back out alive.

Seems my aortic valve is narrowing slightly again but not to worry says the consultant.
The echocadiographer wants me back in six months.
My neighbour has put up Christmas lights all round the garden and everywhere else he can reach. Must be miles of the stuff. His two small children are running about wildly excited. Next will be the Christmas tree outside with even more lights.
This morning when I was out on the trike there was ice at the roadsides and a car abandoned in the parking area for the angling club. It had clearly been rolled and extensive front wing damage as if it had hit something hard. Could not see any roadside damage so a mystery as to how it had got where it is.
Grapevine seems to know nothing about it so presumably no serious injuries.:ohmy:

The much-missed Madam Pearl liked to drink out of the toilet.

Shopping completed, ham and tomato sandwich eaten.

While I was walking to the shop, it seemed a car had hit a cyclist at the roundabout but thankfully doesn't seem badly hurt. I wonder which of the two bright front lights, two bright tail lights, headtorch, workman's high vis jacket and flashing armbands the driver didn't see. :sad:
 
Shop bought not home made :ohmy:

Alas yes. I always made mince pies back in the day (including making mincemeat from scratch) to feed all sorts of friends, neighbours, the male parental unit, but it's just the two of us now and so it's much less of a faff to buy them in.

I *do* buy the really good ones though - the Tesco's "Finest" won a blind taste test on "Eat Well For Less" which will do it for me. They are nice because they are not too sweet.

It's been on, but not usually during the day, unless we are in. I can usually not put it on when WFH, but it was too chilly.

Ours is on and has been for about a month, set at twenty degrees with the upstairs radiators turned down, with my Good Lady now being in a wheelchair with almost zero mobility its on all day most days, when I put her in her chair and take her out I try and remember to turn the heating off.
