Mrs S and I have just enjoyed our first chiminea evening of the year tonight, and very pleasant it was too.
This involves sitting in front of a roaring chiminea on the patio, eating felafel based snacks, drinking unreasonable quantities of merlot, and listening to Rick Astley, Crowded House, ELO, and Amy MacDonald through the bluetooth speaker.
Mrs S is now snoring quietly on the couch, whilst I am catching up on the really important stuff on Cyclechat.
Tomorrow's planned ride may be delayed by an hour or two .

Where was ours!!

Mrs F is out on a hen party so i am on the merlot and currently watching 'Shout' byTears for Fears. Didn't see that one coming

It's good to be able to let it all out occasionally.

Where was ours!!

Sorry, but we're stockpiling due to Brexit, so our normal levels of extended hospitality are currently on hold.

-6C here, my chiminea is in the garage, Crowded House CD is somewhere in the basement. I think there is a Big Country LP down there too, probably in the shelter.

Doesn't the smoke bother you?

What? I'm supposed to light a fire in it? No wonder it's so cold on my patio!

Im doing 130 miler today... Sadly in the car to Milton Keynes
Visit FinL
He has yet another UTI, so he will be raving and shouty which will cause my wife a lot of distress.
The carers have said he's been very abusive, telling them to sod off " I'm being polite" , lol he never swore in his life, but at 98 he's a poor old thing and has gradually descended into this existence, he'd be mortified if he new the upset he was causing for his girls.
Life can be cruel, a very decent hard working popular man who now hardly remembers his daughters names for more than a few seconds.

Morning. Did we have some rain in the night ?
The weather peep said that we could get some rain today .
It seems that Some is the key word as it looks very confusing outside. There are wet and dry patches on our back path. I know that I washed my bike off after my ride yesterday. But I didn't wash the tops of the chairs or table as well .

I haven’t got a chiminea.

I'll have to look it up and find out what it is.

I haven’t got a chiminea.

We have but ours is more an ornament rather that it's real purpose

I gave this a 'like' but that doesn't really convey my thoughts, but I hope you understand.

Talking of chimineas..

I did a paving job for a Italian guy who had a full size brick dome oven in his substantial garden.
Brilliant looking thing, he said its a bit of a faff getting it all upto heat but it cooks piza and the likes fantastically.
It was huge, i have a pic somewhere... Probably take me a week to find it tho

Update; got told at 4.15 I have to work tomorrow.

So, assembly postponed.

Further update; was told at 8pm that I don't have to work after all.

So, today, assembly beckons again.

I'm not sure I can cope with this roller-coaster lifestyle of mine.
