Good morning all.
I can claim to be the first one up today. I've been awake since 3am and can't get back to sleep.
@PeteXXX what is PPFDOTM NR?

At the moment Glenmorangie, a highland single malt is £29.50 instead of £40.50 with the nectar card in Sainsbury's.

Sometimes it's worse than the last round of Only Connect on here..........................

Good morning. Hammering down. Saturday night I slept for 8½ and last night 6½ hours, there's something happening here, what it is ain't exactly clear....................

Today. Well it's gone to pot already. It did at 17.09 yesterday. All the family had gone home. #1 son dropped #2 son at his house. We tidied round and the kettle was on. My phone rings, its #2 son's carer. "His xBox is offline. What should I do?" So rather than have someone randomly poking about I went over. This should be simple. xBox is showing an update is required to run Fifa26, my lad's birthday present. OK, Settings >System >Updates should do it. No! I can't get to Settings. Not a friggin' clue what is happening so I went home promising to return today. This could occupy most of today which is a bugger as I had my day planned out. Knowing it was going to rain I'd planned a full day of household chores. Playing with an xBox is not on the list. The xBox is deliberately kept offline as #2 has SLD and we can't risk him being online without supervision but why I can't get in is quite beyond me.................

A new plan is needed. I'll take my gym stuff with me, when the xBox is functioning I'll head to the gym, do some weights and then go home..............after that who knows.............life is a mystery, for living on the edge

Pinch Punch First Day Of The Month …. Not sure about NR though. New Resolution? Certainly should be for me as far as eating less!

It rained all night here so it’s going to be soggy underfoot.

Morning campers 👋

I got back to sleep eventually. Just woken up for the second time.
The security light out the back of the house is on the blink, I'll go and get a new one this morning. It goes on and off randomly with nothing happening to set it off.
It's raining quite heavily and due to continue all day, so a domestics kind of day is to be had.

Morning.
After a lovely day yesterday in which I actually cycled outside for first time in over a week it's back to normality. Wet, windy, grim.
Lovely.

Morning all.
Feeling a bit sh*te this morning. It came on suddenly last night. Headache, shivery, nose running like crazy. I might just go back to bed.
