I think I remember seeing that the U-bend in the plumbing is called a pea trap in the USA.

Kinda.. There's P traps and S traps, depending on which letter it resembles..
My peas will never be seen again, though, whatever the shape 😔

It's been as wet as an otter's pocket here today. No venturing outside for little old me. I have been given a shopping list for tomorrow though so I hope the water dragons don't come out to play again.

Morning .
There are rain spots on the window so I assume that's what it has been doing .
The three Scalextric cars that I wonded on the bay arrived yesterday. After a good clean and fitting a new plastic pinion gear I have got 2 of them running . I need to find a new braid and tyre for the other one . Little one is quite happy seeing them going round the track.

What's the third car?

I suppose they wanted freedom; we should always give peas a chance...

Nah, they took Peas release me, let me go a little too far.

What about bottle traps.

As it's beer o'clock, I'm going to have a Chocolate Oboe. I earned it while beer hunting this afternoon.

Mmmmm, that was nice. First, a big bowl of curried parsnip soup, then the rest of the tartiflette, along with a sliced tomato and some steamed green beans.

The girls shared a pouch of Felix AGAIL with ham.

Mmmm, well in my case I have everything down on paper, at least. It's making that leap from the drawings to actual parts...

Little catch-up with my sister on the phone this evening. We were talking for long enough for me to make & drink a mug of coffee. Followed by a shorter chat with mum & it turns out that last Friday she & my stepfather had their Covid jabs.

Multi-tasking showoff

My bathroom light bulb has just gone pop

The end of an era, the final remaining incadesant bulb in this flat has gone to the great lamp post in the sky...

What a surprise - it's raining again.
