Morning .
It is still a bit dark here . There is strange light on the horizon . The sky above us is battleship grey but there are bands of different colours below . Pale yellow and purple .
I think I will go and make another drink .

What's with the own brand Custard Cream shortage at Morrisons? They are my preferred version and my local hasn't had them in stock for almost a month.

I'm at work today so I'll have a word with the warehouse and see what they can do..

I haven't tipped at Felixstowe so it's not my fault!

It's bed-stripping day.

 

[biggs682]

A bit more awake now
Kettle has boiled and tea is brewing

First cuppa went down well and was a much better cuppa than my first one yesterday.
Another good frost under the now clear skies.

Does anyone know when Hell is likely to freeze over as I am waiting for A head bearing for my Carrera Zelos from Halfords .

Does anyone know when Hell is likely to freeze over as I am waiting for A head bearing for my Carrera Zelos from Halfords .

I think it's the 24th but not sure.

Someone I know defrosted there car with a kettle and now has to wait till the 27th to get a new screen fitted which I don't think is too bad

I have a and a vanilla pastry thing.

This gives me the kind of excitement that Hebe Jr used to have for midnight feasts ()! Followed by the sad reality that I’d have to hide a vanilla pastry to get it to last past tea time in this house.

Yesterday’s swim and erranding around town seem to have been too much again. I hate covid.

Clearish sky and temp just above freezing but outside is an ice rink. Looks like a recent fall of hail.
Much advice on the local FB pages not to even think about going out anywhere this morning due to everywhere being ice.
Some did drive to the morning ferry and once they managed to get out of town said it was not too bad if you took it slowly. Lots of icy patches but nobody reported off road so far.
Saw some neighbours who had been on holiday coming home and trying to get up their garden path couple of days ago.Nearly a hands and knees journey.
Just been out to check my weekly electricity consumption. Up quite a bit so heaters need to get turned down and need to stop warming up my kitchen in the morning with a fan heater.

I know I'm probably a bit late, but should I start boiling the sprouts ready for Christmas dinner? 🤔

Another COVID injection yesterday. Survived the night without adverse reaction. Using it as a ploy to stay in nice warm bed.
The room is 18°C.

Why it in in bold?
