New headlamp for my friends mini = £250.

Mint used one from Ebay = £15.50.

Guess which one my friend had me order?

Via a good pub somewhere no doubt.

Of course!

My poly tunnel has developed a problem. With the cold snap the polythene tightened and is beginning to split at one of the support bars. Trying to fit a patch inside to hold the thing together with polythene sheet and sticky tape. Cannot do the outside as it is wet and also hard to reach. I do have a new cover but it will take more hands to get it over and held with sheet clips from a market stall. It is after all about 20 years old but I had hoped it would see me out. If it lasts the winter I can fix it next year has been my motto for too long I think.

Of course!

Blimey Dirk, do you take those collection boxes with you everywhere you go??
No wonder you can afford so many holidays

I've got scaffolding going up outside my kitchen and bathroom window, the outlook wasn't very good before it is even worse now

Your kitchen is in the bathroom!

I went to the golf club for lunch today. Hotpot with red cabbage plus a pint of smooth .....the hotpot was superb with lots of very tender meat. Very generous with it too.

It has done well lasting as long. People along the road from me put up a big poly tunnel type of thing as a car cover and I see it is already splitting where it goes over the bars. Probably only about 3 years old.

I refuse to drink out dimpled glasses.
Straight glass, or nothing, for me.

Now that has confused me. I thought it was your bathroom that was next to the kitchen

A few hanging baskets will hide that.
