Time for second cuppa me thinks

 

[Speicher]

I think our car is well equipped with abs , air con , cruise control, sat nav , in car entertainment but on the next car we buy needs to have the ability to drive at breakneck speed in torrential rain and spray

Is that a Vauxhall Corsa in bright red with spoilers and an aerofoil, and defective brake lights?

It only works if you have no insurance, no MOT, and are already disqualified from driving. You also need to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs, but preferably both.

Thought I'd better test today, negative. Let my line manager know about my wife having the plague, and he said maybe work from home this week - we're in a big open plan office so wise not to risk infecting the office as I'm in contact with someone that has it. Only one face-to face meeting to be postponed, all others are still on-line despite planning to be in three days.

Noticeably darker this morning.

Yes. used my headlamp when walking the dog, twice! Working by feel is not an option.

I love early mornings so already using my head torch a fair bit. Needed it for the first half hour this morning before the daylight appeared.

Cornflakes have been eaten. Dog's been groomed. Bank's been checked and ££ has been transferred to where it needs to be. Sheds and gate have been unlocked in preparation for dog walking & bike riding..

And it's not even 09:00 yet!

These say it better than I can.

Cold, wet and windy miserable day.
Not helped by having another bloods appointment postponed as still testing positive. Need food shopping as well but that could wait till tomorrow.

Incidentally, Guy Siner (who plays Lieutenant Gruber), has also appeared in... and Babylon 5.

When was he in Babylon 5?

You'll not be in need of eating the grandkids after a decent bacon sarnie, surely!!

After a night of torrential rain it seems to have finally dried up. Still windy though.

The wind blows my postbox lid open and then it sticks open. It's pretty lightweight plastic. I might screw something heavy to the inside of it to keep it closed. I don't want my takeaway menus and Jehovah's Witness leaflets to get wet (well that seems to be all the post I get these days!).

Can't say owt about the type of post you get, but as regards the wind...
"Gusts of up to 72 kilometres per hour were recorded at Met Éireann’s Shannon station in the early hours of this morning."

Weather warning nearly over, ten minutes.

Currently overthinking how to make a table to log the bike parts we use...
