There is a 'news too exciting ...' but I can't find it so here will do.
Our neighbours are moving out
It's a private landlord who always seems to take on troublesome tennants, this lot, feral kids, dope smoking galore from the parents, our house sometimes smells of it. We're sure he grows it in there.
We've always kept a non interventionist brief, it's one of the negatives of buying your house on what's effectively a council estate, you're not always mixing with the nicest of people. While we dont get on , we don't fight, just ignore each other...which is fine by us.
They're literally moving to the house opposite them, so no more dope smell for us, no more looking out into their garden at the sh1t tip they make it, no more listening to the dads explosive rages at his wife and kids, no more listening to the kids swearing...yay.
Just wait and see what the next tenants are like...going on form, we're not holding our breath
But for now, some small celebration...

Tut tut - you should know that the likes of bacon or sausage sandwiches, rolls, etc should only be accompanied by brown sauce. Preferably HP Fruity.There she is. Triple decker tiger bread, streaky bacon and ketchee ... yumamungo

A thouroughly grey and cold day (it only just struggled into double digit °C by mid afternoon) looks to be ending as it started - with more rain.
Despite this I had quite a nice & relaxed ride out earlier on to pick up the bug & weed sprays plus some food on the way home. After a shower I plonked myself into the armchair and haven't really moved since apart from making something for tea.
The next few days are looking to be quite busy - Sunday I'm off to a probably damp & freezing cold Silverstone for the British GT 3hr race, Tuesday I'm taking mum to Bluewater to meet up with her niece (something to do with the will after her sister's death last year) and then Wednesday I'm off to Manchester to see a band, travelling back on Thursday.

Fabby supper of hot dogs and fried onions wedged into some posh rolls I bought on YS. Mustard was the condiment of choice on the first hot dog, and sriracha sauce and BBQ sauce was the choice for the second hot dog.
Polish hot dogs of course - the "Berlinki Classic" ones. So much nicer than Herta.

Did my state pension forecast earlier today...apparently I will get £284 a week in June...if I retire at 66. That's gone up a lot ?

It usually depends on the store and the manager, but final reductions tend to be done early evening. Unless you're there when they do them, or if they've got a job lot of stuff that wants shifting, anything* with a yellow sticker on tends to disappear pretty quickly.
* except for the vegan / gluten free stuff
