Strange local weather. Calmac have cancelled one sailing this afternoon weather related they say which avoids them having to pay compensation. Here 20 or 26 miles away nice day with little wind.
Spent the morning in the poly tunnel which is now the stick shed cutting kindling.
Came home earlier last week and lovely day with sunshine. Only one bus party on the 1000 sailing who sit themselves in the reclining seats and look fixedly at the back of the seat in front. They did not even look out of the windows at the passing scenery which I always do even after many years travelling this route. Why do they even leave home? This behaviour is quite common and I cannot understand the lack of interest in their surroundings. Nowt as queer as folk as they apparently say in some parts of a foreign land.

Still dry here but a very cold wind. Afraid I have tried and failed to talk myself into a spin. Might just about muster enough enthusiasm for another walk before long. Another coffee in the meantime.

If it was as loose as you say, then I think you would have noticed well before then.
Oh......hang on a moment.......:rolleyes:

:laugh::laugh::laugh:

I'm going to clean my car. It's not been a good morning.

First the bike
Second I get the email confirmation for the Hive order. This states, I don't usually read this stuff, "you'll need a spare Ethernet port on your router" GREAT why didn't you ask me this when I phoned with the order??????? You think I'm buying a new router.??????

Hive are a nightmare to get on the phone unless you want to buy. Strange that.

I do have to find a new broadband supplier. Looks like I need one with lots of ethernet ports on the router!!!!

Just done my good deed for the day. On Saturday when walking the dog I found a Visa debit card on the pavement, so popped it into our local NatWest. Thinking that if I ever lost a card I'd hope that someone would do the decent thing too! :angel:
Do you get a reward for that ? I know thats not your motif but do I recall that the banks used to automatically reward the finder?
