Morning to everyone in the land of old farts.......smelly old farts for some apparently
.
Mrs D is out for the day as is usual for Wednesday. Like @Mo1959 my activities are seriously restricted. I think the back is better than yesterday. I will know after an hour or so. If so I will nip to Aldi. Its my Bros 75th and the Aldi single malt makes a very nice present.
Brunch for me today. Bacon and egg with a few chips.....plus bread n butter. Might even have a glass of vino with it

We had ours done some years ago as the previous people thought replacing with plywood was a good idea. I decided to stain it all. It was a lot of hard work paint/sand/paint again but it has lasted well.
The stairwell is BIG!! I think the drop is 25 feet+. Last time I used ladders and planks. It needs doing again so.........I am paying someone to do it

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
I have made a fruit cake. Its cooling down. Mr WD is hovering in the kitchen, a bit like the Indians circling a wagon train.

Takes me back to when my mum, who was a great baker, used to bake a cake on a sunday afternoon when the oven was still hot. The smell is wonderful.

Dentists done. Small chip in front tooth repaired.
My pocket? £104 lighter. Not bad for 15 mins work.

Warm fruit cake
It does smell nice. I put a pinch of mixed spice into it as well to give it a bit more oomph

With a good chunk of vintage cheddar, you can't beat a fruit cake

Tomorrow, turn the turbo 180° and see if it feels like you are going down hill.
No worries, pleased to help j
