Barnet,
Only just, although I have been awake since 5 am.
Good morning all.
This mornings highlight is the Sainsbury's delivery, 0943-1043.
Rain is forecast for later, and the clouds outside suggest it could come earlier.
There were several letters for HRMC waiting for me when I got home yesterday evening.
MrsP, as a non tax payer has given me 10% of her allowance, and it has been backdated 2 years. So the taxman has changed my coding and sent me a cheque for £498 as I have overpaid for the last two years.^_^ A nice Brucie bonus.
Enjoy your day everyone :cuppa:

Good morning Brethren,
A night of vivid dreams. The usual getting somewhere anxiety dreams, plus me running up an industrial conveyor belt, plus getting lost in Newcastle 🤔
Black bin, walking group, veg box and a trip to the Cat to collect tickets for the Poole beer festival 🍺🍺😎
Mrs Tenkaykev is keeping an eye on me post booster No 5, I need to feign being chipper or the trip to the Cat could be postponed🥲
Have a peaceful day folks 👍☕️☀️

Morning all :hello:

Tyres for the car didn't happen yesterday as they only had two of the correct size in stock. Was assured they would be there in the afternoon, so I booked the car back in for this morning. Not a problem - you can do that when you're retired.:laugh:
Buyers surveyor rang yesterday to book an appointment for next week and memoranda of sales have been forwarded to respective solicitors.
Things are moving along. :okay:

Bonjour. Woke up at 2.00 am with severe cramp in my right leg and again at 4.00. I blame statin as it frequently happens, always in the early hours of the morning., never during the day. I think I will skip my statin tablet tonight, it won't do any harm every now and again.
The weather is a bit dull so far but it shouldn't rain.
I am collecting my front wheel back today from being trued up and might give it a ride later.
We bought a heated airer with wings yesterday as an alternative to using the tumble dryier. It should be a lot more economical to use, 3p and hour as opposed to 37.5 p an hour apparently. Let's wait and see.
Au revoir. :hello:
