The Retirement Thread

[ebikeerwidnes]

Morning

Kinda busy yesterday as we had a new telly being delivered

so - naturally - the lounge needed to be cleaned and re-arranged

anyway - as ornaments were being re-arranged I took the opportunity to fix a mirror that was broken when we got it

One fo those things that was too much trouble to return

anyway - it just needed 2 bits glueing together - was never going to be perfect but would work

so I wentin the garden and wit it and found some superglue in the shed

opened the glue and started putting it on the break
and the whole top came off

covering 4 of my fingers in glue!!!!

I managed to get some on the break but it was a race to get it stuck without sticking my fingers to anything
a few close calls - 2 fingers touched and just get them unstuck
them a finger stuck to the mirror frame - again close but OK

once it all dried I started getting rid of it - managed to peel a couple of sheets off after an hour or so
and a lot has come off over night



ANyway - telly arrived on schedule and was installed as per instruction from SWMBO

to be fair the stand was delivered ina weird manner
and the manual was "not clear" on what the different bits were
so you did need the instructions
plus a fair bit of figuring out what in the name of all the Gods they actually mean!!


but it got sorted eventually

Bright and a bit chilly here this morning with some rain due around mid-day.

A filter coffee and Turkish Eggs consumed and then a second pot coffee drank while sitting in the garden and chatting on future plantings.

Will get last of the gingers planted then see what the weather brings.

I've finally got my strimmer working so I can nip over around and have a bit of a clear out there if you want...

Everything growing like mad here what with rain we've had and sun. The Cordyline tree in full bloom and the bees love it.

If you want to pay me what the plants cost that will be fine

Now about £900 for the palm,,,,,,
