Very

Very dangerous napping without training.
Have you done the Napping 1 course?
Really need Napping 2c to attempt unsupervised napping.
Around here you need the Napping 1e to do the Settee - Horizontal otherwise it's Recliner intermediate.
You have done the risk assessment of course.

Now just a min here now.This sounds a bit like Last of the Summer Wine dialogue and very good it is too.

Which is why I said in this county timing and most of it's traditions which are now christian festivals are long held pagan ones.
If easter moves due to natural events then it don't sound very christian to me. The fact that it moves is laughable what's more of a joke is in an ever increasing secular society. We even put with having a bank holiday that is solely based on the whims. Of an ever growing irrelevant organisation that is totally out of touch with the modern world.

It's more related to Easter, like other ancient festivals, being related to a lunar calendar. Christianity isn't about an organisation.

And it's useful!
Fans who hang around offering you their bodies for a moment in your limelight are altogether much less use.

Christmas and Easter are just exercises in commercial and consumer excesses.

Not for all of us!
For some of us they are significant parts of our belief system.

Nervous about who gets the role of Compo.

Trivial fact, Cleggie was unaware that we were members of the same club.

Cats are weird aren't they? We have got a short hair and a very fluffy long hair, but when it drops below 10c the fluffy one stays in. The un-fluffy one ferets around outside in all weathers, snow, ice, rain, just doesn't care?

Christmas was never much celebrated in Scotland in the past until TV advertising and other commercial interests forced it on people and the gullible fell for it as they always do.
New Year was the main celebration but not at that time commercial as everything shut down.
I remember working on Christmas day tho' latterly as a concession we had a half day holiday.

Very true in the Army you'd always find a scot who'd happily swap Christmas leave for New year.

Extra time having to spent cleaning when more importantly could be sleeping might explain the fluffy one

It's been a mostly bright and not too chilly day here chez Casa Reynard, but the brisk breeze definitely had a bite to it.

Slept OK-ish, but my entire day has been all used up ferrying the parental unit to various appointments, medical and non-medical. Although I did manage to squeeze in a trip to the market and a quick fizz around Tesco in among all of that. I'm bloody cream crackered.

Am definitely having some "me" time this evening.

I did manage to pick up a "finest" gammon joint, two trays of Silesian sausages, some grapes and a bread on yellow sticker though. The butcher didn't have any rabbit or partridge that I wanted, but I've spotted he has a "half price" shelf. Some good buys there today, but at the moment, I don't have much in the way of freezer space, so didn't buy anything.

Could use another

Showery day but had to wait for specialist courier coming with a new to me Kettwiesel Evo Steps trike.
This does illustrate the importance of inspecting any such purchases in person but in this case it was not possible and I do not know anyone with one I could check out.
Trike itself seems ok but weight much higher than I would like and does not fit in my car unfolded as it is about 3 inches too long.
I need to get some roller system to get it in and out. Getting the new one out of the car and unfolded without damage is a challenge.
