Mundane News

For some reason I slept until around 9am. Woken by one of the workers' drills.* It's sunny outside and the mobile crane is back.

*That apostrophe looks like it's in the wrong place because it's singular but there is a plurality of workers and drills around here so I've stuck with it. The sensible option would be to say I was woken by a worker's drill and then just have another cup of tea.

You earned a post Trophy!

Is it singular because each worker has one drill? I agree with your sensible solution. no sugar in mine, thanks.

That's about par for course. Cats and boxes, that is...

Lexi is obsessed with boxes and baskets and shopping bags. You leave one unattended at your peril!

Speaking of which, Lexi has just jumped up onto my lap. She says "mrrrrrp" to all the mundaners.

Yep I know but it was the speed she did it at, I only went to the pighole (cupboard under the stairs) where the bags are kept so it only took me a couple of seconds and 'poink' she was in there.

Also known as a 4th hand tool, though I reckon it's only a 3rd hand tool. But I bought this one new so it isn't even 2nd hand.

That looks like some tool a vet might consider before starting to operate on a bull🤥😳😳

What if the drills belong to someone else ? Should we ask the OP to pop round and ask them ?

That might be a Bit over the top. They might Chuck something at him.

The chocolate they use for them is yukkitty, and the whole thing is just simply far too sweet...

Not nearly as sweet as meringues, but perhaps you have tried the wrong brand.

My spectacles need a clean..

So do mine, but I can still see it is once more raining.

The plodcopter is hovering overhead... 🚁 👮

You've not been wearing your mask again!

Morning.
Mike Pence ! Well there's no flies on him !

Flies are attracted to decay.

I'm cooking potatoes.

We have hail!

Sorry, this is not mundane.

Have the appropriate authorities been informed, are the ladders & foam generators available?

Cool, breezy, showery and occasionally sunny here chez Casa Reynard.

I have spent the morning putting things in cupboards and tinkering with my bike. If only I can get the rear gears to behave, I could possibly put the pedals on and go for a test ride...

Almost lunchtime here.

This afternoon I plan on having a toddle around the community orchard.
