Easy, having a screw loose. You'll never know for certain if/when it's going to come off, and what it'll do when it does eventually come off.

I have a nice and a miniature bar of green & Black 70% choccy.

While my tea was steeping, I unpacked the silver propelling pencil I bought off the 'bay. Am well chuffed, it looks fabby and feels comfortable when writing with it. It's absolutely perfect for my friend's birthday.

So glad I asked the seller if he'd take an offer rather than let the auction run. It never hurts to ask, and the worst he could've said was no.

Only downside is that the instruction sheet is missing from the box, but I'm sure I can find a downloadable version lurking on the 'net somewhere.

You can`t give your friend a used pencil! Now you know your friend will have to have a brand new biro and like it while you get to use the pencil forever 😄

Well, a girl has to road test these things thoroughly, you know. I'm actually planning on buying one for myself as well, although I'm going to wait till after Xmas. Having said that, I might bite before then if the right one comes up for sale.

I do know that I don't want to be buying the ladies' version for myself as it would be too small. I'm not a fan of dainty writing implements - even if I do keep various of those screwfix pencils in handbag / wallet / pockets etc.

Well enough of this Tom Foolery....

Boing!

 

[Reynard]

Right, I'm going to boing, boing, boing off to bed as well. Not that onerous a task, it's only six feet away...

Nunnight one and all xxx

It looks like we'll have 2 typhoons in the space of a week.

This one is ringing alarm bells with the weather people here as it's following the same trajectory as the last typhoon that hit HK square on in 2018 and that knocked the city sideways for a week. It's looking like it'll be an interesting, but stormy, week here from Friday.

I've stocked up on tape which I will be selling to the highest bidder.

It's still pouring rain.

I didn't quite get rained on this morning.

I'm getting a bit fed up of the cars pushing through "traffic free" routes in an attempt to avoid diversions and traffic jams though.

Must admit we have had rain Most of the night .
Need to look at the central heating controls.
This could be interesting as no back up bucket available 😉
