Mundane News

[fossyant]

In other mundane news, my old Garmin 200 works and charges/holds charge after nearly 6 years in my drawer (this was my commute Garmin). I'd been using my 705 and more recently the Explore for normal rides.

Ah, the Le Mans 24 Hours of tea making and toast shuffling...

Errands sorted. Also picked up taramasalata, Dickinsons & Morris pork pies, two boxes of breakfast cereal and two bottles of Garnier antibac hand gel on yellow sticker.

Think I need to visit Spec Savers Wondered why you picked up a yellow stickeredTarantula

Sorry, I don't understand the question; are you asking about how big the toast is, how toasted, or something else?

It's half past five in the morning when I eat Breakfast. Half past five, which is half past four in your time I'll have you know. I'm lucky to be able to find the oven: advanced pre-gormandizing wheat product manipulation it out of the question.

Andy in Germany l am concerned about you. We are in the same time zone and if my dogs wake me at the time you are eating your breakfast l would be very annoyed. I get up an hour and a half later than you and that is early enough for any civilised human being in my opinion

I use an oven grill as my toaster like Andy but I've never timed optimal toasting. I keep an eye and a nose on it. It usually works.

Without a timer my process is:

1: Turn grill on
2: Place toast in grill
3: Get distracted by tea/CC/Shiny thing/Squirrels
4: Smell burning toast
5: Repeat.

The Toast Scale,
View attachment 608193

7,8 or 9..... the rest is pretty much just warm bread not toast!

Errands sorted. Also picked up taramasalata ... on yellow sticker.

I had that once from a Greek restaurant in Zakinthos.

Is that...
6:55 your time
6:55 our time, or
6:55 Universal Coordinated Time?

Grandson, 18 last weekend, had his first 2 hour driving lesson late this afternoon. He went out all nervous but Daughter says he came back absolutely over the moon! Funny, I was thinking the other day how fast the last 18 years have gone and then I`m reminded it was over 40 years ago I had my first driving lesson!!!
