According to very reliable news sources, the date is going to change at midnight tonight. We're going to have the get used to writing a different date from tomorrow... just like we did today, and yesterday, and the day before that.

Just make sure you remember to use the right year when you send me that cheque for £50,000.

A small father and two son's long established family business has just bounced a cheque on me for £360, so sad but when these things happen. Sad for them not me, they have never done that to me in the 25 years I have been doing business with them, they did say things have been quiet.

Send the boys round ..... then again, I suppose it's not fair to pick on small people!

Just had home made chicken and mushroom soup made from (mostly) leftovers. She added a little garlic again....this soup making machine is brilliant. I was very sceptical, I'm not a soup lover but I even found myself looking at the yellow sticker shelf this afternoon for some odd that she might be able to 'soup up.

Kizzie arrived here after Bonfire weekend, so I do not know how she will react to the fireworks.

Keep her in and turn the Stereo/TV up loud.

We do the same with our dogs.

 

[Speicher]

Keep her in and turn the Stereo/TV up loud.

Yes, will do that, and possibly start singing.

If I do that, the dogs start howling...

Any good pickings out your way?

Was mostly party food and salad stuff here, along with a veritable avalanche of sausages.

Sudafed is my current friend however as always nothing cuts through the coughing, the bruised lungs and ribs and pulled muscles.

FF has gone out with a shopping list of stuff for me
2017 was a very good year

Don't forget the squirrels, I am even providing them with nuts now!!

I have squirrel-proof feeders. The blighters have now figured out how to open the tops in order to help themselves. I have now cable-tied the feeders shut. It's rather amusing watching them trying to figure that one out.

Could go back to greasing the pole, I suppose...

I’m off to bed now

I've had them gnaw their way through pretty robust cable ties. Agile and clever, those Nigel Foragers but buy stocks of grease....

I'm using forestry grade ties, but I suspect they'll eventually chew their way through them.

Have a tube of axle grease which works a treat. It's so funny watching them try to climb that pole when I've greased it.

Bog it, just turned over and realised Mr Shouty, AKA Jools Holland is on

I don't mind him, just wish he'd stop shouting

I'm sat here listening to Gary Moore's Legacy album and wandering round Cycle Chat.
