I'm guessing Wes uses Marquess of Queensberry rules whilst Angela fights dirty, with Kier holding the towel ... :whistle:

I have a Samsung Galaxy A57 5g ,Navy colour,did not have the awesome lilac.Well it took a fair while to sort out two phones,but well worth it,they even transferred data over for free,apart from a locked photo section no not them photos,my cycling ones.So when i found out whilst i was playing on it,i Googled it and hey diddle diddle i managed to do it with the help of an app.So up and running.Bluetooth for the danalogic aids,well my wonderful daughter helped her old dad.Had to put a BeMore hearing app on ,but that was good because i got to alter the sounds and tone,all is good.What a week,phone and a chromebook and a pizza in town.Next i am going to try to get that Caisse d'Espargne gilet off Ali Express,i even put Strava on the phone.

Made it to Ipswich train station and then from the local station to home in only light drizzle. Still hungry when I got home and had to have a pack of instant noodles and then a couple of slices of toast.

Very little done since then except to sort out the walking route from Liverpool Street to Waterloo stations for next week. A slight annoyance in that every time I saved it and sent the route to my phone Google Maps changed it to something completely different. I've memorised it instead (straight down, over London Bridge, right onto Southwark St & Stamford St and straight over the roundabout with the big glass building on it) as I may be needing to use it a couple more times this year.

Time for a very late hot chocolate.

It was suggested that the previous logo looked a bit "socialist". The jury is still out on that one, but I'm working on alternatives. Does this one work?

You've either got an extra umlaut on the second 'A' of the second 'Padagogen' or a missing umlaut on the second 'A' of the first 'Padagogen'
I'll trust your knowledge of German as to the correctness of the other umlauts as it's 45 years since I did my German CSE - although I did get a grade 1.

The screen on my phone has become very faint recently for whatever reason.

It's hard to see it outside now and I was starting to think I'd reached the point where I need reading glasses or something.

Calmac employees have struggled to scan the QR code on the tickets all week and they all try to turn the brightness up, then realise it's up full anyway.

I suppose I'll have to buy a replacement when I get home. It is six year old I think.
 
It's been a chilly day of sunshine and showers here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept ok, but only got six hours. Hey ho. Downstairs, feed the cat, make a :cuppa: and head off upstairs to do some writing. Madam Boo (who's been here exactly six months today) snuggled up next to me and occasionally offered literary advice. Got some good work done there.

Chores done at a more Godly hour, having to play catchup on stuff that I didn't manage to get done yesterday. I also made a batch of coronation turkey with the cooked shredded turkey I took out of the freezer :hungry:

That done, I prepared some stuff for the tip. I had only intended to do a couple of bags, but ended up with a car load. All the moth-eaten suits and coats got bagged up, though I did manage to salvage a few items. That includes some waistcoats, which I intend on keeping for myself. They'll be fun to wear with jeans, and then I can wear a pocket watch.

A very late luncheon was had of avocado on toast, a pear, a tangerine and a pot of tea.

Did some firewood as the log store in the garage was empty, then did a drop and run at the tip before heading to Tesco for groceries - I was very much in need of milk and potatoes. Cleared the shopping list, and picked up tofu, a bag of mixed salad leaves, bread and some doughnuts on yellow sticker.

Fish finger sandwiches and fruit for supper.

Now catching up on the sumo action.

Throw Andy Burnham in the mix, and we'll have ourselves a nice little Basho. :biggrin:
