Hmm... I gave way to temptation and bought myself a seeded sourdough loaf from Aldi today. It is VERY tasty!

I don't normally buy bread because I have a weakness for it. I was hoping to keep half of the loaf until tomorrow but I think I will have polished off before I go to bed. :hungry:
Go to bed earlier!

I've saved 2 slices for the morning! I'll have sourdough toast, honey and banana instead of my customary muesli.

I've just started the 3rd series of Unforgotten. Some of you were complaining about the slow pace of the show but I really like it. I've watched lots of fast-paced series like The Shield, Boardwalk Empire, The Sopranos etc. so it makes a change to watch mysteries slowly unfold.

Anyway, now it IS time to climb the wooden hill. I'm outta here... :hello:

Morning all (or goodnight @ColinJ ).
Lots of cloud so no moon this morning, I quite missed seeing it :sad:.
Last night we watched the 1st 2 episodes of Bloodlands with Nesbitt.......quite enjoyable trying to work out who is a baddie or a goody.
Not sure what today will bring until I see how MrsD is.
Oh..... new wireless door bell will be purchased from Argos. The one we have needs 5 new batteries.......it is old, big and heavy........ so £10.00 for a brand new one seems common sense.

Barnet,
Good morning all,
A misty start to the day here.

Uncle Ernie has paid out again 2x£25👍
First mug of tea being drunk, and contemplating the rest of the day.

I have the back wheel off of the Brompton again as the hub is still very sticky, it may need professional help. :rolleyes:

Good morning Dave,
I replaced our bell a while ago with a wireless one. The receiver plugs into a wall socket ( you get two, I have one in the shed at the bottom of the garden so I can hear the bell if I’m out the back)
The bell push doesn’t need batteries, it uses the piezo electric effect to generate a voltage when it’s pressed, enouth to trigger a wireless pulse. No more flat batteries, ingenious and works well.

Just checked, I bought it in 2017! Don’t Tempus Fugit 😮
