You get post on a Sunday?
We get Amazon deliveries on Sundays in rural Lincolnshire.

Morning all.
Yep, cold here. Max of 9° forecast.
Nothing planned for the day so a day of TV sport looms.
I did my curry yesterday. 2 portions with the idea of having one today with rice and t'other tomorrow with chips. However, daughter has decreed that she is doing a Sunday roast so one portion will go in the freezer.

Around these parts when the do a diversion they have to use equivalent roads, so A road closure they have to use A road diversion, B road closure B road only diversion, there are often shorter routes using alternatives. Which of course some vehicles cannot use.

Yes, Amazon seem to come every day here too. Presume it's the same all over.
Morning all 
Off to a garage sale, just up the road, before we have a walk on Staple Plain. Lunch booked at the Railway Inn.
Many a time I've cold called a shop, met an initial hostile response and then walked out with a decent sale. I learned a lot about human nature in those 3 years.

Shropshire Blue - my favourite cheese.
I did 3 years as a commission only salesman back in the early 80s.

Lucky guy, I seem to have been abandoned here, only two meals done for me in seven months, despite all the promise back in March. Pam used to be the family feeder, my weekly shop has dropped from around £160++ a week to £35.
Welshie will correct me If i am wrong but where she lives there is really only the one key road.
Years ago we got caught in the floods around Beddgelert. That road was cut off, going the other direction it was blocked by a landslide.
Our diversion, over the mountains, must have been 70+ plus miles.

Good morning all, sunny and dry here in mid Norfolk, very rare for me to lay in bed, didn't rise till eight! Off to walk Dexter, then fuel myself for a 2-3 hour ride. Going to cook some venison in red wine later, will probably finish the rest of the bottle.

A moderately bright morning here, 5C, woke up at 7.30. My wife is a tad better today, but still tired and achy, if I didn't know better I'd say she had a real bad flu.
So another busy day , clean up, got to go out to get potatoes, eggs, bread, I'm sure the list will grow...prepare Sunday lunch and on with the day..
Wife is so unwell, she doesn't think she's going to make it to court tomorrow for the girls SGO rubber stamping (hopefully).
Life is tough at the moment, it's fairly relentless...

Where you from Classic ? That's something we used to say, 'I'll sithi' ( 'see ya later' kind of thing) in Notts in the 70s

Ah, a bit of Aerosmith on the radio to start the housework to. Superb.
