That's a yes, I think. It would just turn you an interesting shade of, errr, beetroot.
I had fish, chips, and peas
Parents have been moving some furniture around ready for clear access to renovate their bathroom. It might give me a chance to start installing the radiators so they can have central heating.
The boiler went in a decade ago, as did the pipework, but Dad has never let me finish the job with radiators so they have been using electric radiators and convectors since they moved in!

I walked the dog down to the feed merchants and stocked up on fat balls and seed for the birds. Snipe was most disappointed - last time we were there, someone had bought a split bag of dog food and there were bikkits all over the yard but there were none this time. She checked. Lots.
I'm now trying to talk myself into taking the road bike out. Not only is it
out there, but my chosen route involves turning out of the farm gate and heading up, up, up for the first five miles

Here's a picture of STASS and our food taken on the cafe stop on our Tuesday walk:
And here's what we finished off with:
I mentioned that I was using a new app to give me more control of my phone's camera. I hadn't switched the compression off altogether, but I made it much less aggressive so the images it produced were a big improvement over what the default camera produces. Take a look at this closeup cropped from the picture above:
I reckon that isn't bad for a handheld phone camera on automatic settings!
A shot taken on our way down from Heptonstall:
While we were walking down the hill, bromptonfb rang to see if I fancied meeting up for another coffee. I'd hit my coffee limit by then but met him anyway and drank tea. The second cafe was shut so we went in the Shoulder of Mutton in HB instead. As we went to our table, I noticed that somebody had left an iPhone on the table next to ours so we gave it to the barmaid for safe keeping. About 20 minutes later, a flustered-looking oldish man came in with a young boy, presumably granddad and grandson. He was looking around the table so it was clearly his phone that we'd found. He was mightily relieved that it was safe. He reckoned it must have fallen out of his pocket when he bent down to do up the boy's coat before heading off to the station to catch a train back to Leeds. Fortunately, he'd noticed the missing phone before the train arrived.
Years ago, my niece gave me a device years which can take a backup of a SIM's data. I forgot all about it when I switched networks recently. I hadn't realised how many CC members' numbers I had collected until I had to copy them over manually!
Even though I agree with you that Google are getting a bit scary in terms of what they know about us, I took the easy route this time and enabled the backup to them.

Oops - bad luck!It also decided to delete all my sim card contacts during set up so I have lost all my numbers!

I used to use one of my spare phones as a sim back up. I would put the sim into the phone and then copy all contacts to the phone. Then I would have a back up for the new phone if it all went wrong. I forgot to do that this time as I wasn't expecting anything to go wrong.
I think, though, this might have been an EE thing. In the back of the box that the replacement phone came in there was a load of bumf about how to get the replacement 'clone phone' restored to the data saved by EE.
I reckon it is now all geared up for the old phone to be cloned before the new phone arrives. Maybe that is why it wipes the sim, in readiness for cloning.
For no good reason I give you:
