The Retirement Thread

Bonjour. It isn't raining today but it is quite windy.
The chap from the water board came yesterday, stood by the meter for a few minutes after emptying the well which was full of water, and then said :" You don't have a leak, the meter has not moved at all. " So I will ring Welsh Water later, asked them when they last took a reading, and to adjust my DD accordingly, expecting a credit on my account too.

New battery or new vac?

It'll be a new vac.
A new, better battery wouldn't fit the old machine. Nor will any of the parts fit the new one, so no keeping for spares.

I bought one for my Vax as a bit of insurance and two small belts just in case they become unavalable
Cost £49 and just undo two small screws and three small plugs

New battery or new vac?

New battery. If I was going to get a new vacuum i wouldn't have a Dyson again. I have Ordered a new battery. £26.

Alfie the Cocker decided to try out his needle sharp teeth on the internet cable..Luckily son in law had a spare cable.

Morning spent puppy proofing cables..🐶

The new battery is more powerful than the original thank god. I'm not impressed with Dyson to be honest, but 26 is better than £300.

Pizza and fries today

Damn. Just realised I missed the bin lorry. They haven’t been coming until between 12 and 1 for years now, but for some reason I’ve discovered they were round at 8 while I was away for my walk. It’s jampacked too.

I've been for another post lurgy bimble, only a few miles at a slow pace. Spent a couple of hours moving topsoil again so I'm a bit knackered and have comitted to a walk this evening. Last months energy bill just landed in my inbox, only used £18 worth of gas as the heating has not needed to go on, just the hot water and occasional gas hob. They've paid me £78 for export so I'm now over £600 in credit which hopefully should see me through the winter🤞
