That would be perfect

That happened to me with Blacks after no word on my orderer weeks, got a refund and it arrived days later. Been over 2 months waiting for them to take it back. So I've now ended up with £100+ jacket for nothing.

might have a go if the wind dies down, really gusty here today ... mind you storm force 10 to the west shipmates!

Lovely supper of a bowl of random-vegetable-soup, then the last of the turkey, a cumberland sausage, triple-cooked chips, sprouts with bacon and then a dollop of both mayo and cranberry sauce on the side.

*stuffed*

Maybe he's having one of his not really bothered moments. Ronnie is such a complex guy he's like a breath of fresh air at times shows everyone despite you're mental demands you can still achieve what you what. Even if it makes one person speck out and get some help he's worth the money.

Actually, no. Both Ronnie and Mark were playing snooker right out of the top drawer, and it was so finely poised right up until the end. It was the sort of match that at the end of the day, it didn't matter what the result was because you were right royally entertained.

When Ronnie's having one of his CBA days, he switches right off.

Very stormy out. I taped a sheet of paper over the vent as there was a cold draught.

Same round here - looks like Saturday will be a bike fettling and cleaning day.

There’s a thunderstorm happening at the moment, not forecasted at all and no indication on the weather apps

HID had a puncture. Walked home a couple of km.
Left it for me to fix!

And here... Saturday's looking like a nerding and archive day.

I've spend the day with a couple of Anglepoise-style lamps trying to light the repair of a bit of machinery that I have. It takes a fair bit of time trying to reluctantly (split infinitive alert) contort the lamps into the right positions......and when I take my hand off them, they invariable develop a bad case of Brewer's Droop. It's an endless process.

If it moves and it shouldn't, then duck tape.

If it doesn't move and it should, then WD40.

In frustration,I did consider getting one of those swan/gooseneck machinery work lights with a magnetic base. The problem is that quite a few of them are reputed to be useless when fixed to horizontal surfaces. They just fall off if nudged.

It's a worry.

Another night of heavy rain and the wind is blowing a right gale. Tomorrow looks dry but that's what most of yesterday was suppose to be and that did not end well. Here's hoping
