Isn't that nice! I've just let my dog out for a pee and to quickly polish a pair of shoes while he was peeing on the tree outside. A police car drove past then stopped and reversed slightly and the PC said "are you ok sir". I said yes thanks officer. He gave me the thumbs up and drove off.

Putting on an automatic watch in the morning and not having to wind it.
Winding a watch.
(Weird: I like winding and also not having to wind it).

After I lost one of my flatcaps last week and spending days on and off searching my flat and around my flat for it I mentioned it to my neighbour who said it was on top of her bin. Being reunited with it is the trivial thing that pleases me, but there's a trivial thing that annoys me as well! She said "I thought it might've been yours, so I put it there". Ok, so why if she thought it was mine didn't she tell me in the first place and not just put it on top of her bin?!🤔 🧐

I've just found a Timex Ironman watch in the junk drawer of the cabinet.
It's been there at least 8 or 9 years and it's still working. Decent battery life there !

I couldn't be bothered washing my car at a local garage/fuel station today. I used to be able to soap/foam brush it, rinse it and spray that liquid polish on it for £3, but I just can't rush round my car quickly enough these days, so it'd probably cost me at least £4 to do it. Instead for the first time in my life a drove to one of those carwash/valet places to get it done for me. I sat there for 15 minutes while a bloke power washed it, soaped it, rinsed it with that added liquid polish then wiped it dry, plus he cleaned my alloy wheels. I looked at those wheels after and they were cleaner than they've ever been, almost new looking! How much would you say this cost? I would've settled for about 7 or 8 quid, but no it was a mere £4! Cheaper than it'd cost me and a better job as well. I was so pleased I gave him a fiver and told him to keep the change and believe me old tight was me isn't normally a tipper!!

I've just clipped my finger and toe nails. I'm pleased beyond belief, as doing my right foot is very difficult due to my waiting for a hip replacement operation means I can only lift my right foot up half as much as the right one and being blind in my right eye means my knee blocks a full on view of my right foot. So I'm glad it's been done without any mishaps.
