Found this text in a review of the Tosh: "Though apparently all surfaces are made of plastics, the case is flexural rigid. Furthermore, it seems that it is rather insensible to applied forces. Even the lid seems to be rather robust. "

I've figured out how to turn off the annoying conversation mode on the Yahoo Mail app.

Sunny, blustery and chilly here chez Casa Reynard.

I slept in, have done some writing, done a load of laundry and am about to make cheese toasties for lunch.

Unfortunately, the commentary game on the radio involves the Spuds, so I shall have to follow my lot using the text commentary instead.

Sitting in bed with the second cuppa of the day listening to the commentary from Silverstone on the Chromebook instead of being there. in person. Don't know what happened, but I had a terrible night's sleep with stomach cramps & just couldn't get warm. I'm feeling a heck of a lot better now and at least it means that I won't need to get more fuel for Wednesday & Thursday's trips to Norwich & Cambridge.

Hope you feel more chipper soon xxx

He used the "Humbug" nine times though.

I thought it was Tiny Tim who ended the tale?

It’s the narrator who ends by quoting what TT says earlier. Scrooge’s last act is to give Bob Scratchett a pay rise..

Why did those aliens take the rider and not the bike too??

There has been a mist overhead all day. Walk outdoors and you get wet within 20 seconds. It`s the really fine stuff that soaks you right through
At least I have the footy followed by the Womens Rugby to keep me happy And as I types Spurs got an equaliser against Utd! lol. Nothing is going good for them this weekend

I nearly choked on my tea! I read that as:

We've just missed a penalty Poo.
Can the referee award such a thing! And is it on a stick!
