Good morning folks,
Minus 1 at the moment with clear skies. A friend is popping round at 10:00 as we’re planning on going for a run. Heard from a friend this morning, the letter that I sent to him in Spain on New Years Eve using the Post Office tracked and signed for hasn’t yet arrived, but the birthday card I sent last week using standard delivery has 🤔
Have a peaceful day folks ☕️

Had this in my porridge this morning. It's rather nice.

Just back from my 5k, bright and sunny but cold. A few iffy places in the shade where we had to run on the road but we all made it back in one piece 😁
Off to big Tesco soon, might wander over to the spirits section to see if there’s any pretty bottles that I can convert to lights one I’ve quaffed the contents 👍

Mrs JK’s favourite brand ,only disadvantage it has to be stored in the fridge even before it’s opened.
So we keep a backup of other brands in the cupboard.

I like soya too. Maybe pure coincidence but since I stopped cow’s milk and started on the soya or oat, I seem to be having less hot flushes…..not something that will affect you!

I was up 'early' today in case Amazon tried to deliver my new mouse, where early was 09:00. Well, if you had still been awake when @Mo1959 posted first thing today, then you would call it early too! Less than 3.5 hours sleep...

They couldn't guarantee a delivery time but the van left Rochdale an hour ago so it shouldn't be too long before it gets here, unless there are 50+ people between Rochdale and here ALSO waiting for parcels.

I forget that I can have my Amazon parcels delivered to the Amazon lockers at the railway station. I go there every weekday, so that would make a lot of sense.

I am beginning to suspect that my silly sleeping routine is part of the cause of my poor memory - I am half asleep nearly all of the time...

YIKES!

Right - my computer will go off at midnight today and I will start watching TV then instead of waiting until 02:00-02:30!

People have been complaining about it ever since the recent forum software update!

I think Shaun is still trying to track down and eliminate problems like that one.

I'll try using the App instead of Chrome.

I have lost the Reply button when using the site on my iPhone, but, it is OK on MacBook. I initially lost the reply button on the NACA site, but, it appears to have returned of its own accord.
