Well youve certainly put me off of bourbons now.

There's a man in a garden over the back, cutting big bits off an oak tree. The tree seemed quite healthy last year but it might be blocking the sun from the solar panels on the house roof.

Just had some Toblerone. Lovely chocolate but the large bars are very difficult to eat. Who invented triangular chocolate?

According to chokipedia, Theodor Tobler, with his cousin Emil Baumann. But they're dead now so no chance of getting them to see reason.

In what is a first for me, I appear to have bought a new kettle before the old one completely died. Not electric, electronic, I'll have you know. I can set the temperature I want and then get it to keep warm, and I don't want boiling water for my coffee. £20 at Aldi.

Interim payment has arrived from the third party's insurers. Safer to fit new forks or polish out ?

The triangular slots are designed to accommodate segments of chocolate orange, have you never heard of the Toblerorange?

Ever get that feeling you are being watched?

I have been up to the pond in the garden to see how the frog spawn is getting on. It looks like some of the black centre bits are starting to elongate dispite the Frost's we have been having.

Fit new and keep the receipt, get them to pay up for em. You really really don't want the fork to snap 6 months later.
