Started young, and still going.
Pray tell, where was it hiding?

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
I plain sight of course.
The lightbulb saga is now over and a happy ending to boot.

No sighting of the beast yet?
Out spake their Captain brave and bold:
A merry wight was he:
Though London Tower were Michael's hold,
We'll set Trelawny free!
We'll cross the Tamar,
land to land: The Severn is no stay:
With "one and all," and hand in hand;
And who shall bid us nay?

Just chatting to a Scottish guy on our site who was just hitching up to drive the 600 miles back to Sterling. He hit the road about 10 minutes ago. It's currently blowing about 40mph, and rising.
I really wouldn't fancy that journey!
On the positive side, it means that we are now the only unit on site.

Not foolproof. Last week I was rooting through my jacket pockets with my right hand looking for my phone all the while hampered by the phone in my left hand.
Proper senior moment.

I cannot even turn the tv on with my electric razor, despite how hard I try. It also does not shave very close when not turned on, the razor I am talking about, not the tv.

So talking of boy looking. I take it the male contributors are familiar with and have suffered the withering "that's a boy look" stare???
Earlier this week Mrs P "lost" her very expensive vari focals. She was convinced these were at her hairdresser's house. Quote "I remember taking them off when I went in the kitchen."
Long story short. No glasses found. While I'm quietly having a cup of coffee Mrs P rummages around the back of the sofa. "Hmm, I thought if that's looking for a £300 pair of glasses??" I remained silent. Mrs P went out.
Faced with a bill of £300 I decided to begin looking as well. Mrs P reads in bed, started with the area around bed. No.
Mrs P usually sits on sofa. LIFT cushions. No. Look UNDER sofa. Bingo!!!
