That Terracotta modelling clay I was rubbishing the other day is a lot better once it has dried. The torso of a figure that I am trying to make has dried and I am now sanding it to shape. The cracks seem to have disappeared and I can now add more clay to areas which are a bit low by wetting the area and adding more clay. The body is gradually taking shape.

Maybe they didn't realise some cars still require petrol putting in them from time to time.
I know of one person who couldn't get his car going, due to no petrol in the tank. He seemed genuinely unaware that it required some putting in on a regular basis.

His car ownership days weren't long.

My ex ,Pamela, rang me one morning to say her car wouldn't start and could I have a look so went there and no go-juice, it must have made it into the garage on fumes.

Good morning from Suffolk where it's been another grey and chilly start to the day. Damp underfoot but dry overhead - although not for long I suspect.

Coffee has been had with the last of the shortbread fingers. Nothing to do today apart from sort out the train tickets for an away day in April as I think the return leg goes on sale today.

Steady morning which is pretty normal post iv's , hopefully radiotherapy this afternoon is not running late. Don't fancy sitting round feeling like I do for next few days.

-18C here, and windy. May be some snow coming, but not nearly as bad as it is supposed to be south of here.

First two cups of tea went down well.

Postie bought a Temu parcel. Had purchased a display light set but it had three LEDs with leads half the length they should have been
Rather than just send the three LEDs with correct length leads they have send the entire set.
A M&S Gift voucher started on bananas, iced buns, and a yellow label loaf for toast
Tesco for 99p oranges. Had a look at their chilled yellow label items but only the salmon tempted and was still more than mackerel so returned to the chiller.

I was right - less than an hour before the drizzle/rain started and it's been continuous since. Add in it being so dull that I either have to put the lights on or sit with my back to the window to have enough light to read.

More coffee has been had with a cheese and pickle roll just for something to do.

Short ride in the drizzle today

Nap been had now time for and something quick to eat as it will soon be time to get going.

Rain returned as I headed homewards from Waitrose with scones and frozen veg, chips and French fries. £1 of app vouchers used.
Prior to that Argos for an ankle strap as the ankle I twisted last autumn has started feeling a touch odd. Sainsbury's consequently shopped as well and well reduced in price cake slices picked up despite the date on them being 10 Feb.

Lunchtime stroll completed
Still just about dry

Hello from Ontario!

I do not remember much about the flight, but tinternet insists that is my current location.

My working day and week is completed

Likewise in Stowmarket. Monday and Tuesday were the best days, well at least dry. Just gloom and doom and that`s without watching the news ! Tomorrow looks good Jenkins, make it a mega ride, I`ll try. Last one was last Sunday. I even ordered a new grub screw for the front brake, just to give me something to do.
