Brrrrrr! :cold: A tad chilly but thankfully as per the usual with the forecasts these days, not quite as bad as it was predicted. Around minus 4 just now. Be interesting to see what some of the Scottish glens have. Usually they tell you the stats when they give the forecasts later.

Up at Mo O'clock today. Crazy really but I enjoy listening to Tony B on SoTS.
Will be doing a quick Aldi dash at 07 45. I have decided to get the soup maker (assuming they have any left). At £35 I will take a punt and hopefully encourage MrsD to eat a bit more.
After that.......erh.....no idea, apart from a shave, shower and and and, oh yes, a cup of tea ^_^

Burned my uniform hat in the oven, exploded a pressure cooker which sprayed the kitchen walls, lots of other kitchen calamities which is why I should stick to ready meals! Hauled the bathroom window off forgetting it was open when driving out to the skip with the hatchback open. I suppose even my bad bike crash was pretty stupid trying to bomb downhill all for a silly strava segment and smacking into a sheep! :laugh:
Car insurance in. Up from £204 to £231 so around a 13% increase. How can they justify that when inflation is so low and most peoples cars have been sitting in their drives not even moving this year! :sad:
And your surprised your premiums are going up.:laugh:

Morning all. In a bit of a rush. Doesn't look as cold as threatened but not been outside yet!!! ALDI dash in a few minutes followed by visit to LBS - 500 metres from ALDI - then essential visit to No 2 son. Sounds daft but this is essential. Football is only available online and Rovers are at home BUT it's the FA Cup which means it's on a different platform to league games. No 2 son won't understand this and so we'd be reliant on house staff to sort out plus give them the relevant passwords. On the basis No 2 son will be unhappy and frustrated I have this down as an essential journey.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.

Peoples insurance shoukd be less this year as we have hardly used our cars, fewer accidents have happened, so the insurance companies have made quite a lot if money last year.
