25 miles completed without getting wet. I suspect a thunderous downpour is due soon as the air is really heavy and dark.
The brats from next door have knocked over my wheelie bin for a third time this week.
What is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander ....so go and knock a brat over a couple of times

Much traveling to do this weekend. Saturday morning I'm off to Brands Hatch for the 1st Day of the BTCC meeting, then Sunday I'm off to Silverstone for the 3hr British GT race. As it's a slightly later start on Sunday, I may even be able to book an early slot at the recycling centre on the way out and get rid of the bags of grass clippings from cutting the lawn last Monday.

The hassle of setting up a new savings account 
A 1 year bond paid out this morning so I opened up a new account with a different bank which was nice and easy - up to the point of transferring the money across. Due to the amount, it had to be done at the local branch of my bank and, despite all the checks having been passed and the transaction being carried out by the bank itself, it was stopped by their fraud team! It took over half an hour to sort out but at least I will be rich again (if only for a short while) in a year's time.
When the next bond pays out in June, I think I will transfer the cash to whichever bank is paying the best interest in two or three smaller amounts from home rather than go through all that again.

Recently when I moved house I found more than 12 hats.
I rationalised the collection.
Still in double figures.

I believe I used chalk, boiled linseed oil, raw linseed oil, and stove blacking when I last used it in 1984.
