It's still light. Just finishing Dry February. I'll be 'aving a beer or two tomorrow - some kind sole has put food and beer in my diary after work tomorrow ! - No cycle commuting though.

I don't buy stuff online, There is a fantastic independant Chinese Wholesalers local to me that is 'Open to the public' that I use, I'm one of the few 'white' faces in there.

One good (!) thing about the current situation. It's dragging my long-forgotten and very rusty Russian out of the depths of my memory. I haven't needed to use it in a very long time.

Turned out a nice day except for 10 minutes of large hailstones early afternoon. Too much to do around the house so did not get out apart from to the bins.
Argyll & Bute cleansing dept will not be popular after today's bin uplift. I saw them coming along the road and watched them working.
There is a lad who does street cleaning, and a very good job he does but he seems to have been put on bin lorry duty today. A house further along has an old lady of 96 who gets her bin uplifted from behind the house and returned empty. I noticed he went to the wrong house where the owner is away just now and brought down the bin but the one he should have taken was not done. They then moved along to the holiday house and he grasped both bins but one fell over and the lid flew off it's hinges. Picked it up and tossed it into the back of the lorry . Put the one bin into the lorry and left the other lidless where it will remain until one of the neighbours gets fed up with it and tosses it back over the gate.
That was only one short section of street so I wonder what the rest of the town is like.

Almost time to feed the cats, and then it will be time to feed me.
Evening three mile walk completed and did a little cleaning and tidying at my fixer-Upper Skoda Fabia which I will be putting on the road shortly.
I lifted the boot carpet for the first time and got several surprises - the complete Skoda toolkit seems to be all present and correct The spare wheel actually has a brand new tyre fitted 
Unfortunately the spare wheel well was full of water
I removed the bung to drain it but it's not obvious how it got there as all the door seals seem in good condition.
