Mundane News

[classic33]

It's been a very warm and blustery, but largely overcast day here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept well enough, but it took me ages to get to sleep and as result, I overslept somewhat. I've had a reasonably quiet day, albeit still a reasonably busy one. I've sorted out a load of books to take to the book exchange from the stash in the garage, and I've been de-mousing and laundering dust sheets. I'm about two thirds the way through that.

I also need to work out what has happened to Min's driver side wing mirror. It has vanished into thin air (why is it always thin air?), so I had better check the pile of stuff waiting to go to the tip just in case. Mind you, it is a modern-ish plastic one, so may look to replace with something that's more period correct.

Am sat with a and watching the news. I shall go and water the planters in a bit despite the fact that it keeps looking like it might rain.

If it were thick air there's a chance it wouldn't vanish without being seen where it had gone.

How long have you waited? A second class packet from Norfolk took 6 days to reach me.

I'm still waiting on a postcard, posted first class from Holyhead railway station in August 1983!

I was referencing a quote from the Babylon 5 season 3 episode "Grey 17 is Missing"

Morning.
Oooh! It is brightening up. It was grey when I came down.
I have got to get ready for a ride with the group.

I am fuming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have just looked on the bay to see how my refund is progressing. There is a message from the seller. He didn't know that he had sold his brake levers and so had not posted them. So how come I have a display that they have been posted? The seller said that his apppppp didn't tell him that his item was sold. The bay couldn't run a bath!

First cuppa went down well

Good morning all, another warm one in prospect, not as hot as yesterday thankfully. Thunderstorms forecast too.

eBay says it posted as soon as the seller pays for the postage on their website if they use that. So either a massive error by eBay or he did know that were sold, paid for the postage and then forgot.

We've gone from a clear sunny morning to high, soft-focus cloud in the space of an hour. Not too hot so I might do a bit of shopping to restock the fridge.
