I need some relaxing miles

One of the tabs on my Dairy Lee cheese triangles didn't work when I pulled it.

I had to stab it with a sharp knife and scoop it out!

All I wanted to do was spread it on a warm bagel for lunch 😔

Have you ever thought of buying your own boat? 🛳

I have had several boats and a while ago an American widely thought to be on the run from somebody or something had a small Colvic with a large outboard which he used for shopping trips to Oban in good weather. Loads of money but vanished suddenly with wife and family after about a year here.
A bit like the Dutch shipyard owner who owned the island of Coll and sent his private helicopter over for bacon for breakfast and the morning papers etc.. He landed in the main car park.
Last heard of he was in jail.
I also have experience of sailing and motoring in small boats through the Lismore narrows and the Firth of Lorne. Wind against tide makes that area "interesting" in a smallish boat. I am not yet suicidal.

My goodness: I knew things were bad post Brexit but I didn't think they were that bad...

Right, time to go feed the cats, and then it will be time to feed me.

Always used to cut from curved edge acute angle the fold back. Used to open nicely that way.

Thank you, I knew you would be able to find it.

10 seconds!
Knew who started the thread, plus two of the words.

Jacket potato with beans and coleslaw tonight.

 

[woodbutchmaster]

An argument, stony silence and my indifference tonight .

I mowed the lawn, watered the flowers, sandpapered the front gates and got them for painting and replaced a few rotten bits of timber on the garden picnic table for my Mum this evening

There is a a reason why I am buying a flat and not a house - looking after it won't eat into my cycling time!

I'd say you've earned your beer today.

With all the rain of recent days, why'd you have to water the flowers.
