Good morning from Suffolk where coffee has been had and the sunshine continues.

The delivery I'm expecting doesn't arrive until early afternoon which gives me the morning free so I think a bit of fresh air may be taken.

another model I had was an FE2

by time I was able to afford an N90 everyone went digital. I liked to joke it was the best camera I never used

N 90 was a great camera, but near the end of the film era. I went with the Nikon Digital Coolpix 5000 instead, and still use that now and again. By that time, I had bicycles to support.

Why say something then when you are asked a week later say something totally different

Laundry done. Washing up done. Recycling out. Evidence of a flaky pastry explosion vacuumed out of the car. Who in their right mind would eat a sausage roll while driving?

Looking very dry.

Received a message while I was out confirming that the delivery van was running early so I had to put a bit of a spurt on and only just beat the van to mine. I now need a rest and the delivery is the perfect thing to have it in - a deck chair

Lunchtime stroll completed and it was nice and sunny but chilly breeze.

My TV has just taken over itself. I was watching live TV to catch up with the news but someone said something that launched the voice assistant. I ignored it but after a while I coughed and the voice assistant (which I have never used) interpreted it as an instruction to return to the beginning of the programme so launched BBC iPlayer and started giving me the news from the beginning of the hour.

Can someone remind me why they're called ''Smart TVs?''

Nearly as bad as when one of the cats presses the 'Audio Description' button on the remote..... what the ?

Shouldn't have opened those biscuits

completely forgot that I have to go for a memory test this afternoon

just skip it, you clearly failed

next question?

That's been a very good afternoon. A chilled 45 minutes sat in the new deck chair with a coffee and some reading material, a quick sandwich then a ride into town for a free hot chocolate (thank you Octopus) which was drunk overlooking the North Sea from the Spa Garden cliff top.

I think a treat for tea of chicken and chips is in order.

Thanks for the FG offers, still no idea.
Office meeting at 10 which I only just remembered so the car got used. That was a mistake as on the way home a bird emptied its bowels all over half the windscreen and surrounding bodywork. Hence a partial lunchtime spent washing the car. Right at the end the hose pipe developed a puncture. One of those expanding ones that I now find you cannot put a new fitment on. No more of that type then.
