[Paulus]

I picked MrsP up from Gatwick airport late last night, midnight in fact, today she has a very slight headcold and has just tested positive for Covid.

I've still got one of these, a proper pound note.

I've done a lot today, I pulled the stereo cabinet out which weights a ton and hoovered behind it, then moved the bed and did the same there, where does all this dust come from ?
Went to the shop for milk and made a fruit cake, I have a coffee now as I need a rest

I still have a genuine nine bod note.

Is that from that strange Yorkshire currency from way back when?

Overcast and a bit bleh here today with a few spits and spots of rain.

It's 21.4c in the sun

I finally got myself out for a short bimble. My back is annoying me so barely 17 miles but it's a start.

Off for some lunch now.

Morning. 2 deg here and a tad chilly. It's an auspicious day as today I officially join the old farts club. I am now an old age pensioner. Bloody hell. How did that happen. I turn my back for 5 minutes and bang

Stay safe peeps

Happy birthday

T'is one of those odd notes from way back. Often used when paying in Lancashire. After convincing them it were worth more than a ten bob note.

Not now, which is why I'll not be parting with mine.
