Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Anorher hot one here. A very exciting day here at Ty (house) WD. A new vacum cleaner is arriving, and my fibre broadband goes live sometime today. Exciting. What?

Mondays are my “doing day” so I’d better stop sitting on the garden bench drinking coffee!! 
Lots and lots of small stuff to sweat today; odds and ends on the allotment, holiday (off to Nice and Marseille next week for 16 days), bike, household admin, bike club admin, etc.
Watched “Eric Clapton: Life in 12 Bar” last night. It’s a beautiful, sad documentary if you’re a music fan and/or child of the ‘60s. Recommended.
I always like to be in on Premium Bond day in case the millionaire lady calls by for coffee - as we only live an hour from Ernie I've usually given up by 11.00

Good morning, another bright and breezy one, I'll be heading out for a ride in a bit, another ride over to Granny Smith's
You could always go to the pub........
Now that would be nice, but is extremely unlikely to happen.
I'll go for you......
I would appreciate that kind gesture.

Does that mean you will be answering back even faster?
No probs. Do you want a bag of crisps with your pint?
Morning all, out with the dog for the normal hour or two, then I am under instructions from MrsP to chase the builder up who is going to do our new bathroom to iron out a few bits and pieces. I have the day to myself as MrsP is at work 'til 1 and then going on to High Wycombe for a lecture on cat behaviour which goes towards her annual CPD count with the RVC. The Mitre is already calling to me

Nearly as exciting as my new fridge. My new fridge has two doors (it's a mini American style, not a full on huge one). I opened the right door last night and stuck my head inside and looked left, because I wanted to know if I opened one door, do the LED lights come on at one side or both...*
*...and the answer is... BOTH!
