Well this morning's zoom meeting was as expected
Nothing gained but we voiced our concerns

 

[Reynard]

I've just made a pot of roasted pumpkin and garlic soup.

It keeps trying to rain here, but on the wind front - maybe I have eaten too many beans...

 

[Reynard]

My new glasses arrived, they are better than the other new ones. I'll give them another go tomorrow .
I've been working on my Scalextric Jag body again . I'm painting it in the Le Mans winning colours. I'm not liking the Humbrol purple colour. It seems to have a lot of clear lacquer in it and it doesn't cover very well. It also washes back off when you re coat it.
As the headlights weren't working I decided to fit some LED bulbs. I've more or less figured out where they go , I've got to insulate the wires before soldering them in place .

'88 or '90 livery?

Have you tried just using ordinary artist's acrylics instead?

 

[PeteXXX]

No ride today, but a pleasant 3 mile walk around the local nature reserve instead.

 

[DCLane]

I've put the marking away for today - will finish late tomorrow.

Son no. 2's having a go on Sufferfest as he's to submit some data later this week using their platform. It's a bit ... basic!

 

[Oldhippy]

Had a quick ride the new town in the rain. Pleased to not see any chain stores!

 

[Tail End Charlie]

My leaking window, which I thought I had fixed a few months ago, is leaking.

 

[LeetleGreyCells]

I've wallpapered two attic rooms today and fitted a carpet. Took me about 45 minutes in total. Odd-shaped walls, funny angles, they had it all.

Next time, my wife can decorate her dollhouse herself...

...and I have no desire to hear anymore about Georgian period realism... thank you very much!

 

[fossyant]

Managed to get down stairs and cook tea. With the aid of a load of pain killers. Next lot due around 6.30

 

[Speicher]

I have just been learning about regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.

 

[Speicher]

I have just discovered that someone has put photographs of my (former) workplace up on this very website.

ooh, Is Hoverfly going to get steamed up about that?

 

[PeteXXX]

It's raining again ☔

 

[Moon bunny]

No, it’s somewhere I had a brief interlude,

Clue:The owner’s wife refused to live there.

 

[tyred]

I braved the deluge with a walk to the supermarket. Rain really heavy but there's no wind so it is coming straight down so my umbrella worked very well.

No have a large pot of vegetable soup on the hob and some nice crusty bread buttered and waiting

 

[Reynard]

I've just had a big bowl of pumpkin & garlic soup and ciabatta. There are also sausage rolls in my immediate future.
