Where was that ?

'Love drinks' in the high street just next to Costa.

Saw some spoons today in the gallery in Canterbury high street and thought of you. A bit of practice and you could be turning out this sort of thing....each one depicts a profession, sailor, physician, merchant etc.....

Helped a guy with his helmet on backwards (cool?) lock more than his front wheel with his impressive reinforced steel chain.

I find it rather frustrating when you see young kids on their bikes with their cycle helmets tilted to 1 side or too far back on their head, sloppy parenting

One of our colleagues came back to work today after almost a month off, turns out he was at his GP's surgery, his heart rate and blood pressure were dangerously high so an ambulance was called, he blacked out in the back and woke up in ICU, he'd had a heart attack! He has had a stent put in but needs further monitoring due to little blockages in his heart, he is an old buddy of mine so this is quite a shock and a worry

As you will have noticed from previous posts, every regional council have their own system and colours. They are trying to send less to land fill because it's so expensive and get us all to recycle more but at the same time struggle to find uses for some of it.
We have 4 different bins and a ridiculously complicated rota of bins collection. General refuse( black) every 3 weeks, garden and all food (pink) every week, paper and card (blue) and glass, tins, plastic bottles and aerosols (brown) fortnightly on alternate weeks. Which means that some weeks we put out 2 bins and some weeks we put out 3 bins. Luckily the local council give us a beautiful glossy calendar to explain it all.

You did ask!!

We'll be on a seven bin system soon. The old wheelie bins & containers in use at present won't be recycled.

I might have to dig out my gloves.

News is that it is so cold in Scotland that Fabbers has taken to wearing 3/4 length trousers

It's stupidly cold out there.

I don't usually complain about the cold, but it really is

Trying to here.

Bloomin' here too. Not had any snow, but there are some threatening clouds rolling in. Joy, I have to head off to March after lunch.

Well, it started dumping it down at around teatime, and I drove home in a snowstorm. A "where the hell did the road go" kind of snowstorm. And it's still snowing here. Really unpleasant.

Morning. It was a very cold night yet the cars outside are clear of ice. The sky is crystal clear at the moment.

A colleague thinks it is 31st November today.
