Mundane News

[Ming the Merciless]

Just watched the Isle of Man Government briefing, we have had no new cases of Covid for 22 days, all social distancing rules are lifted on Monday, a very big step towards normality, borders are still closed

I hear they may offer preference to Ireland first

Bother, must've been the rain...

Yes, you might be right. Wet air would be heavier than dry air, and your coefficient of friction would be compromised. Your calculations for the trajectory would also need to include parameters for wet wrappers, not to mention the soggy biskits gaining weight exponentially.

All scones are Very Fast Cakes...s’gone.

I’ve made another carrot cake.

And wet skeins of the trebuchet.

Plus lift, drag, whether the airflow is laminar or turbulent... Ouch. I should remember this...

Tesco was pretty successful tonight. Got everything on my list except for butternut squash. I wanted a small one and they only had very big ones, so I didn't bother.

I got basmati rice, herbal teas, a fruit loaf, crumpets, pesto, sausage rolls, yoghurt, green beans, tomatoes, chinese leaf, mushrooms, watermelon, papaya, mangoes, avocados and a job lot of satsumas on yellow sticker.

Also on sticker in the green bins was a load of stationery all 95% off. So I picked up glue, sellotape, a pack of 50 HB pencils and an assortment of pens. Best buy was a pack of Staedtler artists pens for 65p that normally retail for £13. I may have acquired more than one pack...

Anyways, time for a and a smackerel of something...

Right, time for bed this little one said.

You were taught a different version to me.

Coffee'd and porrige'd. Ready to start the work day.
Feel a bit like I've been missing in action last week or so. Not posted, been a bit blue and at odds with myself. Seem to be good now, helped largely by having the bike running again, although still got a, "noise", [loose spokes in rear wheel.] but can live with it. Cycling really does lift your mind and spirit.
What else? Seem to have a Huge amount of holiday hours stacked up, which is nice.
Yeast for bread making is back in Waitrose, [favouritism?]. So two home made loaves!
Getting a new kitten first week of July, named her "Pink" as she's jet black........

Good morning! It’s Friday!

 

[deptfordmarmoset]

Good morning all. My tea looks weaker than usual.

 

[Illaveago]

Morning.
It is a bit grey out.
I was wondering what day it was .

 

[biggs682]

Happy 13 smiles earlier so a nice start to a Friday
grey with a damp look about it but not actually raining
Lets hope it's a bit less manic today as we have a week's worth of soaps to catch up on
