House hoovered.
Aquarium stand damp dusted.
Hedgehog food container topped up from the big bag in the shed.
A couple of plants disposed of as they're long past their prime.

Must be time for a ☕
 
I just did a bit of a calculation of the capacity of our water butts . Our 10 large ones would have held 350 gallons when full . I think we also have 5 smaller ones . Quite a bit of the water I have used to top up our pond . My wife and I have also been using some to water our plants in our green houses . My wife is now watering some plants with a hose as some of our water butts are now empty .

Woke up to bright sunshine but 5 minutes later it was pouring rain. Just now we have both together and the sky out west looks a bit black so not a nice day in prospect.
Disaster again on the ferry front. One of the Outer Isles ferries is broken again so our main boat is being taken away from the busiest route and sent there. Replacement one for here is being taken from Skye but is much smaller.
Fortunately I am not planning anything this weekend but the situation is causing much local anger. CMAL who own the boats refused to buy a new catamaran last year which could serve all the islands.
Regarding bins the situation is nearly as bad. The recycling bins should have been emptied on Monday but so far they are still sitting there full and the landfill bins are due to be emptied today. Fortunately I do not generate much rubbish so it does not yet affect me since I did not bother putting mine out anyway. They can wait for another few weeks at least.

My son is home, cost just £150 for the repair, but a whole load of messing from the AA. Left Belgium around 4pm and was home for 2am. Fortunately he's only missed two days off work, as Thurs/Fri is booked as leave as he's off again to a car festival in the UK. 👅 Better not break down again. :rolleyes:

Must be feeling off as just turned down a rather nice bike on the grounds i have a garage full already ^_^
Are you feeling OK?

Biggs  not buying a bike :ohmy:

My Honda CR-V got a metal stud in the tyre. It's at a garage having the flat repaired and, given my French is atrocious, I may have just agreed to swap it for a pristine 1966 Peuget 404 saloon :blink:
