Blue Monday explains it then.
Bored Saturday, i don't like bored, i tend to get a bit aggy.
Fustrating Sunday with family issues saw me get even more aggravational.
Today, work, at least i can leave the pretty poor weekend behind....but no.
Agreed by 3 dept managers to move a gas cage and bottles to an adjacent line, i sorted it at the first opportunity. I'd literally just finished and a line leader asked....why are you doing that, i need it on line 2 (whence it just came)...and one of the managers who sanctioned the move was the one that immediately went back on it
Rattle out my pram moment, got over it, returned the equipment to its original setting.

Next job, asked another line leader how long his bagger is not working for...(i have 2 hours work to do on it)
We have finished with that machine for the day, he replied.
We ripped into it, stripped back all sorts of parts to get to the area we needed....
Errr, i need that line in maybe 1 or 2 hours, line leader now tells me.
No rattle out of pram this time...
Ok Maciej, put it all back together, we will do it another day.
Its Blue Monday alright...

Is it because on a normal month we could look forward to being paid at the end of this week

And the pre-Christmas credit card bills start rolling in!

Overcast, mild and rather breezy here chez Casa Reynard.

Took a morning away from all the necessary stuff and went for a lovely long walk with a dear friend who lives in the same village, and her two dogs. It was very muddy and squelchy out there, but I really enjoyed myself. I can consider myself to be well and truly exercised out. (OK, I need to do firewood this afternoon, but hey...)

The doggos enjoyed it too, but gawd did they look like a pair of swamp things by the time we finished! Mud is to Schnauzer hair what iron filings are to a magnet...

I've finally got enough unsolicited (attempted) sales letters to make it worth swapping all their unsolicited offers around and posting them back to them all in their freepost envelopes..


One of life's little pleasures

D*mn, didn't think of that...

The answer is, don't shave.

Only Beautiful Wife drinks coffee in our family.

Just think, if you drank coffee, you could be beautiful too.

I know that song but it is age restricted.. Is 68¼ old enough, or should I give it a while?

It wouldn't let me watch it, told me I had to sign in, I'm 69, so you might have to wait a bit.

I've been out for my first ride of the year.
It was a bit chilly so I put 2 pullovers on . I only intended to do just over 5 miles but on the return journey I extended it so I will have to work out the total distance . I was out about an hour .
If anyone had seen me they would have been impressed by my bulging thighs . Little would they know that I had pipe insulating foam in my pockets . . I thought I would see if I could ride with my pockets stuffed . I didn't like it the last time I fell off .

I did my second ride of the year today, 50 miles, my first ride at that distance since 22 December, I might ache a bit tomorrow.

Yes, it was. A house without bannisters?

There on the stairs?

The answer is, don't shave.

I have a goatee. It's a compromise.

Just think, if you drank coffee, you could be beautiful too.

I admire your optimism.

It's been another dull, dreary, dismal, dreich day.

It's not blue Monday here, it's grey Monday!
