Stay safe peeps.

good morning folks, carers were on the doorstep when I came down stairs to unlock at six this morning, our lad is here arrived at three yesterday afternoon, goes back tomorrow night.

Did you ask him about Curral's pies ?

 

[Drago]

Quite a lot according to my wife,

An extra inch on width is a big deal, but an inch on length will hardly be noticeable compared to the other 17.

Not yet.

How about early mornings?

Since I retired they have ceased to exist

They didn’t exist when I was working, permanent late shifts for nearly 30 years . It did mean getting home at 2 am sometimes. Up early this morning. New dishwasher day , delivery between 7 and 11 .

Hello good people.
Forecast WAS dry all day......its peeing down.
Another hospital visit** for me this morning. Think I mentioned, I lost my hearing aid some weeks ago.........I don't need it all the time so it was in my pocket. I think I know roughly where I lost it and been back to search the pavements (and ask local shops if its been handed in).
So.......I bit the bullet and pay for a replacement today.
**have to be early as, if there are no parking spots I will have a long walk in the rain.

Morning all

Dull day in prospect here.
Filming of Aquaman 2 continues over the road.
Grey Grockles are trickling in now the schools have gone back.
We're off to Cornwall on Thursday, for two weeks in the van. Forecast is looking good.

I still get up at 0600hrs, at least during term time, to make Mrs D's lunch and fill her travel mug with coffee. She did that for me for long enough, so its only right that I return the favour.

Good morning all, quite nice here just now, sunshine, blue sky, broken cloud.
Nothing planned for today, perhaps another jog/walk this morning.

I bet they had fun shooting this.

Morning folks Im finding theres a lot of positive benefits from this cycling lark! it can be quite isolating living in the Highlands but tootling around i find i stop to chat to people quite a lot and i think im getting known now as the old git on the bike [who writes poems]! My waistline has shrunk a inch or two and trousers arent a squeeze anymore. Really looking forward to my new wheels as its going to be considerably lighter and will aid my ever expanding range.

Right, a quick half hour bass practice then off out to get me tyres done.

Whether you do a quick, fast or normal half and hour, it is still 30 minutes.

Back from a decent walk. Nice and cool for walking.

Some Peacocks wandering up the wood, including a white one. Poor pic as I zoomed in with the phone.

Aye, but I play very quickly to fit more in.
