My toe hurts for reasons unknown.

@Reynard Have you got any nails left? 🤔

They're cut too short to chew...

My bladder has taken a hammering though. I *really* need another wee...

The Spanish number 10, Athenea del Castillo, looks like the Girl with a Pearl Earring

Result aside, that game was a fantastic advert for ladies' football. It was really good to watch.

TBH, I prefer to watch the ladies than the men when it comes to actual quality of play, as they just tend to get on with it. There's none of this fannying around auditioning for the RSC that you get in the mens' game.

Has anyone else been watching "The Control Room"?

Please note that I did not see last night's episode, I was watching something else.

If the "murder" took place three or four days before the Uncle used the van, would there not be an awful smell in the van? Was there a murder or did Sam engineer this to involve Gabo?

If the body had been in the van for those three or four days, then possibly. Wrapped in a plastic sheet* would disguise some of the smell, but also speed up decomposition. Especially if the weather was warm, like it has been for the last few days. The amount of flies outside the van would have you weary of opening any door, unless you had to.

Two days in the current weather would have you staying away from the van.


*Would also keep all body fluids within the sheet, assuming the ends were fastened properly. You then dump it with your non-recycable waste when done.

Watching animals dreaming is so entertaining. I love to watch Cassie doing that, especially when all four feet are together.

Currently have Heidi barking in her sleep and doing the can-can on her side.

It seems my aunt was rushed to hospital with a suspected stroke this evening. One of the neighbours found her lying in the driveway

Is it my imagination, or is the commentary much more straightforward, and easily understood by people who do not usually watch football? That has been the case even if one one of the commentators is a man.

It might be the other way round - the football is a little more straightforward with far less fartaboutery. The ability to talk garbage is not gender-specific.

Ladies footy is like ronseal - does exactly what it says on the tin.

Here's hoping things aren't as bad as you might think.
Take care.

Right, I'm having an early one, as I've a long day tomorrow.

Nunnight one and all xxx

Can you finish today first, then try tomorrow?

 

[Andy in Germany]

Good morning.

I have to drive a van today. And hopefully remove a very seized Bottom Bracket.

Doesn't change the fundamental problem; it's still football.
