20° is fine. 18° imo is better but I could handle 20° by the pool. Is there any breeze?

A very light breeze.

I plan to be in and out of Ikea like the SAS storming an embassy. No fannying around, no prisoners.

Good luck!!!


I have only bee to 2 IKEAs (is that the plural??)

The Warrington one was horrendous and forced you to wind your way around the whole place
until I discovered that you could go in "through the out door" and go direct to the warehouse
and then I discovered the (at the time) secret doors that allowed short cuts for staff

But the one in Ashton-U-Lyne was on several floors and you could go direct to the bit you wanted

so I presume it varies and has improved over time

Morning all

Highlight of my day will be fixing a leaky ball valve in our en-suite wc.

Is that a valve for your leaky balls

A couple of chaps are fencing in the garden.. I hope they don't hurt each other! 😋

In today's news..... my daughter has landed a dream job.
She is gradually building her reflexology things up but she has to cater for when clients want the appointments.
Anyway, they have put thier house on the market and the estate agent offered her the job as 'viewing agent' which means taking people around the various properties for sale.
2 days a week, hours to suit. Looks good.

Fence done, partial vacuuming done, to be completed. Need to chop some logs and also fix tv aerial.
It's all go...

I've never been to IKEA.
My phone is updating 30 apps, I didn't know I had 30 apps on my phone.
I have a parcel from Evri today, yet I ordered it from Amazon, when did they start doing that.

Ball valve stripped and fixed - needed the crud blowing out of it that passed through the system when they installed the water meter yesterday. I also changed the seal in it for good measure. Job's a good 'un.

Evri are just a delivery firm and will delivery anything for anyone who pays them (assuming it is legal one assumes!)
Amazon farm out some things
I suspect that means it is not coming from one of their own warehouses

We have had this a few times
