Window man did a speedy job. Grass cut, new plants planted and watered. I don't know what they are as I didn't ask and my gardening knowledge is about as deep as Accy's tolerance for commoners from the council estate.
Back from my scan. Quite a strange experience in that part of the original department store are still open, so I went in the entrance, past the bedding and towels to the foot of the escalator which had a airport style barrier across with an NHS Logo. There was a lady meeter and greeter who checked I had an appointment and ushered me to the escalator where I was checked in and seen within five minutes. The procedure was straightforward and I was in and out in about 15 minutes. Popped down the highstreet and into Sainsburys where I got some " Coconut Colab " non dairy Yoghurt for Mrs Tkk, plus a tub of " Naturli " dairy free spread ( It's got more Shea butter in it than Mrs Tkk's expensive face cream, I've suggested she could save a few bob but to no avail )

It is exams time again so I was invigilating in school this morning and again tomorrow morning. The plumber is in our house today and possibly next two days to remove the bath and install a walk-in shower as well as re tiling the walls of course. There are three of them so I am hoping it will be finished tomorrow. Beautiful weather today and I can't go out on the bike !

Hello all, a cloudy morning but a gorgeously sunny afternoon. Windows open and washing drying outside for the first time this year. Just been for a little spin on my mtb, again for the first time this year.

It’s about time I was attempting a spin. I’ll have forgotten how to ride a bike before long. I haven’t been on a bike since last August!

Well, the workers have been working their socks off as they said it will all be finished tonight. They only have to install the screen, seal it all now and let it dry overnight ready to use tomorrow.
I, on the other hand, am having chicken and pasta bake with garlic bread. All home made.
Well I pierced the film and pressed the button

After riding my trike for so long it felt very strange trying to ride my MTB and I was so high up too.

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

You don’t tell jokes do you, you refresh memories, it’s nice to read that joke again.
