I can't decide whether to have egg, bacon, beans, black pudding, tomatoes & toast for breakfast, or wait until I've been to the shops and bought some mushrooms then have it for tea this evening and have Cornflakes for breakfast instead..
Hmmmmm..

My electricity is off while I get a new busbar installed. I asked the chap of he would like a tea or a coffee. Tea, one sugar. So I looked at the sugar - it appears to have a September 1962 date on it!

Grey day with spits of rain and less windy.
Things seem to conspire against me sometimes.
I had a front car tyre lost some pressure for no apparent reason tho' I did thump a pothole a few days before. It was inflated to 40psi by the local garage and I have been back to get the pressure checked with the same gauge 3 times and there is no change and no damage to be seen. I have a mainland trip coming up which means a few hundred miles and worry about the tyre safety.
Next my Macbook which has just had a software update is refusing emails to and from my gmail address. Fortunately my other devices are not affected. Lots of suggestions on google but nothing helps so far as all the advice is for older versions I think. Aaaargh

That's the time it went through the system which did the checking for metallic objects.
As can clearly be seen it did so on either the 28th March or the 30th October, when the clocks changed, thereby throwing the delicate time franking machine out of kilter.

That or the real date is on the underside, turn it upside down and check.
