Cold - they do have heaters, but you go prepared !
nice & we understand. last night running an errand I passed one of our favorite restaurants. it has outdoor seating & in one area there is like a firepit, the kind w/ gravel where the gas flames come up from below. it was so cold no one was outside, but they had that fireplace on HIGH! & the flames were like 4 feet tall instead of the usual little puttering flames. wonder if they were doing that to drum up business or what
 
Took this photograph yesterday. It is the only road through our village and l just thought it was great to see that the traditional skills are still being utilised to give it a facelift, rather than covering the old road with tarmac ^_^
well, the sidewalk anyway ...?

I have been without Ruth in deciding what goes to the tip this week. Over the last few months I have rounded up all the old cushions, pillows and quilts etc. Some of which were not even mine, but ending up here when emptying other people's houses. :scratch: A decision has been made.

I reckon it is about a cubic yard of them gone now. They were so old that if someone was desperate for such items, I would buy them new ones, rather than give them to someone to use.

Next to go is the collection of metal for recycling. Again, ancient stuff that really has no use. I will keep one large grill pan, but that is it. It is useful as a firm surface for dividing plants.

Gradually there are spaces starting to appear in cupboards. ^_^

The next area to sort is the garage, not helped by the fact that the council is not doing its large items collections. Is there anything you have been looking for that might be at the back of my garage?

Inside my skull
Fitted new headset bearing pre load rings (best name I have for them) to my recumbent. Bolts on previous adjuster seized and had to drill out. Headset play eliminated and steering nice and smooth.

Grumblin at Garmin on the Granny Gear
Bright looking day for a change but cannot get out on trike as son and DIL are coming for a short visit to fit my smoke alarms.
Has to be short due to ferry chaos [don't let me get started] and they have to get back for the grandkids coming out of school.
Bringing a load of shopping as well but despite giving them a list they never seem to interpret it as I would like. Asked them once to get me a jar of marmite and got bovril instead. "It's just the same isn't it?":ohmy:
Bovril's better, Marmite will do at a pinch as will Vegemite.
