You have started without me......and I am only 3 hours late:wacko:.
I got up at 0600 thinking it was Monday and I had an 0800 Aldi dash to do. Wonderful feeling to realise it was Sunday.......so I went back to bed and slept till 0740. It was GOOOOD.
I watched a brill film last night. Seen it before several times. Owen Wilson and Gene Hackman in Behind Enemy Lines.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.

Morning. Dry. Cold.

I haven't ironed anything in years and don't intend to either. :laugh::laugh:

We have Amazon and Netflix
Stay safe peeps :hello:
I have a telly, and several radio's ( you'd probably know them as " The Wireless " Welshie 😉)
I also have Prime and Disney+ which is shared with the family. I cancelled Netflix last month.
Of them all I think that Disney+ is the most used among the family, but Prime is useful for the "Free" delivery and our grandson watches the Football when it's on.

Completed a silly Strava challenge and got £50 off Le Col stuff, which I happen to think is overpriced so probably makes it just about acceptable with money off.

Like I really need another cycling jersey but I liked the colour. :laugh:

I can't stand anything that is not ironed, in my house if it's flat it gets ironed,
I suppose it was the way I was dragged up :laugh:
Me too. Everything gets ironed except for socks, knickers and cycling kit...................has a tendency to melt

Do you still 'turn' your shirt collars and turn your bed sheets 'side to middle' when they are worn :rolleyes:
My mother used to turn collars and cuffs. A great skill to have.

Good morning. It would be a good cycling day but I'm still not well enough. Damn cold went away on Wednesday, back Thursday, better yesterday morning and wiped out last night. Didn't wake till 8.50 this morning. Can't stop coughing and feel weak. :sad:

We have Amazon and Netflix but I'm never sure which we are watching as I'm not allowed to have the remotes...........when I am I get shouted at because I'm not sure what all the buttons do......................................because I'm not allowed to use them! :laugh::laugh::laugh: Amazon Prime seems to be very good for Mrs P's tennis passion.

I'll do minor domestics today, walk to the farm shop and try to be generally useful without too much exertion. Very close to buying a new phone but I'm still resisting the urge, something about repent at leisure. We're due at Film Club tonight at a friend's house when seven of us gather to watch a film chosen by the hosts. I may cry off. Two friends are clinically vulnerable, we will all do LFTs, both Mrs P and I have had negative PCRs in last 72 hours but I don't want them to feel uncomfortable.

Rovers won a very tough game in awful conditions by sneaking a very good goal. I was nervous for the whole 90 minutes. I'm starting to believe. Ridiculous. I'm 67. It was fantastic to hear Ewood in full voice for the first time in a long while. The club have started playing "Sweet Caroline" at the end of a victory.............lots stop behind to join in. :smile::smile:
