Most of downstairs is the front room is on the list once we have the money.

Just swept and mopped the floor. My goodness, but it was filthy. Considering I'm the only person who comes in here, and I take my boots off at the door, it's amazing how much dust accumulates every week

Steady walk to local Sainsbury's to stock up on the mince pies I'd like the other day. Given it's 2 packs for £2 I bagged 4

It turned out a nice day after all. I probably should have gone for a ride but felt tired as I haven't really been sleeping that well recently.

I spotted something on Facebook Marketplace that I had always fancied owning, so went and a bought it instead.

Corgi had made a limited run of Leyland Leopard buses in the colours of a local bus company in the 1990s. I had fancied one for a long time. I couldn't afford one when I first saw them back then. They still had these in the road into the early years of the century.

Tax returns done for SWMBO and myself. It looks like small refunds for each of us if the calculations are acceptable.

Work finished for 2025 but hardly a relaxing evening to come up. Spare rooms sofa to be turned in a bed, do I have enough bedding? and the bathroom and kitchen to clean

In Manchester for a track session for the first time in 3 months. I'm about to find out how unfit I really am, which is VERY unfit.

Yes you can, although you'd need to unscrew it from the base first.
