Wet and windy just about covers it.

Just as I was getting the phone ready to use my Tesco Clubcard to make sure I got the 25% reduction on their ''Finest'' brand wines, it froze in WhatsApp. I couldn't get out of it. So I used the phone to pay the full price, and this unfroze it...exactly at the moment when it became too late to get the discount. Faffing around in the customer services queue is not my favourite activity but I did get my £10 repaid to the phone.

I may give the phone a reboot. Please don't try phoning me for a couple of minutes.

Persisting it down here in Suffolk as well.

Found enough dark washing to make a load and stuck that in the machine while I went out on the bike to get the shopping. Very hard work into the wind but hardly needed to pedal along the seafront road with the tail wind. Home and shopping put away, washing on the line to dry (which took less than an hour), vacuum cleaner taken for a walk round the house, lunch, coffee and then the kitchen floor steam mopped.
I'd just sat down for a few minutes with the Tour of Britain and was thinking of going out for a walk when the heavens opened.

There's an advert on TV encouraging violence! They are telling people to explore the world the Viking way!

Upright freezer has been defrosted. Just about had enough insulated containers to cope. All contents now in correct drawers again. One hour, start to finish. Time for a drink
