On no..
something different is winging my way...
I'm up to no good..
Old speccy is up to something some folk find tut-tut.

I have my cleaning duties,
I took over when I retired a couple of years before the :laugh: Mrs..
Years of gutting park buildings daily, 13 years at playing a parkie..

Anyhow, radio to play first.
The marigolds can wait (I don't really use them)
Something some folk might find tut-tut covers a wide variety of things. What's tha been up to I wonder. Will it involve an exchange of personnel at dawn on a lonely road.

Chief Cleaner and Bottle Washer!
Isn't retirement supposed to be when you slow down, relax and maybe put yer feet up. Or have they been peddling the wrong image all these years in the adverts.
Playing a parkie sounds as though you weren't actually doing the work of a parkie.

Anyone else playing radio this morning?
Another illusion shattered. And there were missen thinking you were like yerssen in those sky adverts. Leaning over the sink, plate in one hand, scrubbing brush in't other...

Nothing wrong with being a old scrubber :ohmy:
It's all fantasy this reirement lark..
Haven't worked so hard in yonks..

Dishwasher is a wonderful thing....
I have to put everyhting away.
I avoided getting one for years but got brow beaten into one (not literally), worth every penny.

Parkie was worse than just getting round the regular work, dealing with grumpy folk, doing extra stuff but the extra work that came with it (in the summer was handy cash, I escaped in '90 and almost to the day I left I averaged at least 53 hours per week (38 years of working these sort of hours) and more if anyone was on hols etc. A wife and three hungry kids to feed but luckliy no crops in the fields like Loose Wheel..

I better go , landing imminent..

You could see it were going to be another cold start last night. Weather Folk are saying you'll have snow before the week is out. Might stop it being so cold first thing.
Thought you liked the colder weather?
I'll take yer word on that part.

If it is, take the fifth whilst exercising yer first...
Who'd be there to see yer rights were being upheld...

WX returning to normal says the lovely Alexa +..

Enjoying a Hull bloke who is Earthlore' on the Toob, excellent short docs on places, well researched.

I'm saying nothing.
Nothing like reality? You mean all those adverts showing retired folk, enjoying doing stuff they'd no time to do when working are wrong!

Everything in for a week before it's turned on to do the job for which it were bought.
It put you out of a job though... Even ended up paying to be put out to pasture.
You put them away, unbroken...

Wasn't the extra cash(from extra duties) welcome in winter. Those long dark nights.
You'll have got used to dealing with grumpy folk in 38 years no doubt. The odd requests/questions for which you were expected to supply a ready answer to.
Escaped, they left the park gates open one night.
No crop, just as well really as you'd not have had the time to harvest it. Just as well yer wheel wasn't too loose.

Landing done n'dusted, no injuries...

What's "normal" weather wise these days?
Alexa+, the regular Alexa not giving you the answers you want. Put Alexa and Alexa+ next to each other, after you've asked one of them a question.
They're supposed to react like Furbies did to each other.

Hull lad, were he born there then...
Is he one of those exploring old buildings and the like?

Islands and stuff etc, worth a look..
Old Alexa is handy for a quick WX forecast or playing some radio, music etc, new one I must look at more..
The google one I have is all over the place, wrong home location etc etc
Bob is off, busy day..

Good morningly things to you.... :hello:
Back to warmer type morning, phew:laugh:
I don't mind as long it isn't those hot, sultry early am of the summer months.
Enjoy your day:hello:
Owdo
Thought the warmer weather weren't for you, or is that a relative matter.
We've had cooler summer mornings. You being as far north as you are, with less daylight should be welcoming the sun. Once you've got yer bed in a position that's not in the early morning glare.
I'll try, promise...

Thought you might have been watching one of those who ventures inside disused/unused buildings and posting there videos.
Old Alexa, thought you'd a new Alexa plus replace her. Just tell her what you want to know/hear and she'll respond to yer every whim...
Maybe it still thinks it's at an old address.
I'd a busy morn, enjoy yer busy day...

Dunno 'bout any glare, I'll take these temps just now any day.
Rushed off feet all day for various reasons

I saw some of them years ago and whilst mildly interested I never watch any now..
URBANEX or something.
I prefer factual stuff on da toob..
New Alexa? I've a google home downstairs and it isn't cutting the mustard compared to new Alexa.
I would say that because I have ponied up for a new one..
Not arriving for quite a few days, on its way from the Orient?

Tomoorow might be a rocket day, might as I have given away another R2D2 :laugh:
Mrs M hasn't said anything yet...
next week, I'll have to get the grey stuff I used for the others, I still have some but not enough, oh well.
Logging not done so off to chain saw everything,
It'll be a bit noisy so ear plugs in

Thought the early morning sunshine streaming in the window were waking you up too early. Hence you liking the shorter days.
Well, depending on who yer willing to trust with the weather, we've either the last throes of summer or the first snow of winter heading our way. There appears to be no middle ground.
Yer sat down now?

Some of the ones done local to myself have included the local cold war command bunker, and the nuclear shelter, for the councillors at the time. Too small since '74 when their numbers increased.
These were factual, the command centre under the local bus depot, entrance via a tunnel on the opposite side of the road, or via a "secret" entrance in a house on the edge of the site.
Let the pair of them fight it out, leaving one still capable of answering.
The orient, and yer expecting it in a few days. Yer hopeful, I'll give you that much.

How high you expecting yer rocket to go this time? Clear the launch pad...
It weren't Mrs M's R2 you gave away were it. If it were, nice to have known you. Run out of grey, low on the metallic... I dun know.
You reckon you could get another printed and built before she noticed?
Keep yer noise down whilst yer logging.

Sunny at present, could be raining before I manage to finish this post. Fickle is the word you were looking for.
Be daring, have summat different...
Still disbelieving that you refused chocolate. Carry on and you'll be announcing that's it with chocolate for you.

Logging is a hard life,
Me wearing a red and black checked shirt, a chain saw and big boot..
Oh, and breeks, I'd look a proper plum without them plus I'd be awfy cold in the nethers.

Roll on the shorter days..and the time change over,
I can then log in real time not the one hour less for BST..
Toss the whole system in the bin..

It was hers, she was okay with it..
being secretly transported south..
I'll get another once I organise the other PLA that'll I'll need.

36 hours total time then a build and that is if I'm ready to do the next 'plate' (all 18 of them) right away, more like a two day print,
You saw the short and what it needs..
Got the printer working just now, a test piece.
Radio hasn't been on yet so best pay it a visit...
