The Yule tree is up and I’m starting to decorate. The tariff is:
One red bauble for every time I hear or read the word “humbug” .
One green bauble for “commercialised”.
One blue bauble for “the true meaning of Xmas...”
A length of tinsel for any other cliche. My decision on what constitutes a cliche is final.

Now to include:
One silver bauble for “Merry Xmas” (etc) spoken from a known person.
One gold bauble for ditto from an unknown person.

I got an eBay parcel this lunch-time with unfranked Christmas stamps from 1989 on - 10p, 12p, 12 1/2p, 15p, 15p, 16p and 19p stamps. (a tiny front light for hillclimbing to meet the new 2022 CTT regulations for reference)

How did the seller know to post these over 30 years ago to where I live now? And what eBay would be? Oh, and the changes in regulations that happened on Sunday plus that I'd then need a tiny front light for hillclimb use

Mild, breezy and occasionally sunny here chez Casa Reynard.

Blue wheelie bin was collected a day late, but the guys have their xmas biscuits. They also left a flyer saying there would be no green bin collections until the end of January. Guess it's down to staff shortages, my bin day is Tuesday and sometimes they haven't collected till Saturday... Hey ho, those lads will get their box of biscuits for Easter...

Anyways filled all the wood bins this morning, re-jigged the fridges etc. I am going to town this afternoon to sort some errands. I got a Tesco voucher in the post - spend £80 and get £12 off. Will top up what I have to get in Tesco with cat food. That amounts to three free boxes, and the little darlings need to eat, so hey ho.

I will also take the six photos I ran through Photoshop (I did another one this morning) to the machine in Tesco and make some 6x4 prints to see how they stand up. They may still need a little editing before I go any bigger than that. We'll see...

Time for luncheon.

Best before 2014 is a bit out of date even for me

Absolutely nothing wrong with it

My laptop is running pathetically slowly today for reasons unknown. Even a restart hasn't helped.

I wouldn't worry unless it's developed language skills...

I am venturing out tomorrow for my Booster jab and flu jab, then I will be in Hibernation until the middle of January.
