One of their Party games is "How not to answer a question and waffle endlessly to prevent another question being asked".

Or "How to give the richest people forty (yes forty not four) times more money than we give the poorest people".

Oh dear! Things don't seem to be going very well at that party! They just announced that steaks are high! Probably past their sell by date due to spending cuts !

Don't forget about Mad Cow Disease! aka Bovine spongiform then send us a lot of Pie.

The wind hasn't arrived here as per the weather warning so my bin should be safe until the lorry arrives, usually around 12.30.

Ohh, my freezer surprise lunch looks interesting, now it's defrosting. Looks like jacket spud, chicken wrapped in bacon, peas, carrots and broccoli ! Fabulous. MrsF will be jealous.

We always freeze batch cooking or 'leftovers' for office lunches. We don't always know what we are getting. So far, I haven't mistaken gravy or stewed apple for a full lunch.

Gusting to over 40mph here in Hamtun! My wheelibin would be in @biggs682 garden if I didn't bring it in!

I think I'll take the 🐶 out for a walk now the wind's dropped a bit.

Edit.... 3¾ miles later.. Wind didn't drop, it intensified 🙄

I just negotiated café coffee in a porcelain cup for drinking outside but decided it was far more restful inside.

I have made a coffee. Next up is the ironing, followed by a quiet few minutes in the garage putting air in the bike tyres. The car is charging and will be finished at approximately 21:02. I can’t wait for the proper charger to be installed, along with the solar panels when they arrive (hollow laugh…)

Is that how they get through university ?

We don't have one H&S; it's a bit complex but basically every company has to be part of a non-profit organisation which deals with health and liability insurance in the company, and also does the H&S Certification.

When I was a cabinet maker I was covered by the Wood and Metalworkers Insurance and they certified our workplace. Where I now work we are under the "Social Welfare Sector Insurance" which I reckon must be the most difficult because social organisations do pretty much everything. Just in our building we have a cafe, bike workshop, electrical workshop, wood workshop, painting workshop, sewing workshop, offices, classroom, recycling centre, and showroom, and they have to certify all of it. Good luck to them...

Yes, I'd not like to do H&S inspections on that range.

This rain is not stopping !

So you've lobbed the rain across the water to us. Thanks

Seems a pretty accurate description.
