I read a suggestion somewhere recently (on CycleChat?
) to use a dehumidifier to dry washing next to a radiator, rather than just chucking everything into a tumble dryer. It seems to work so I will do that in future unless I am in a hurry.What I hadn't realised though is that dehumidifiers (apparently) have air filters which should be cleaned regularly. Obviously, I have NEVER cleaned the filter on mine because I didn't realise that there is one! I'll take a look later on when I go upstairs to where the dehumidifier is.
(Before anybody makes a sarcastic comment suggesting that I RTFM - the dryer was donated to me and I never got the user manual for it!)

A titfer is a sombero, amigo. Se pone sobre la cabeza.
You do not wear a vest under your shirt, you Philistine! That is a t shirt or maybe a wife beater or even a muscle shirt. You don't wear your drawers outside yourbritches, do you? A vest alone ain't gonna cut it here..we gots jackets, coats, dusters and even sweat shirts and hoodies. Right now, next to the front door there are.....
3 down jackets
1 rain coat
2 windproof fleeces
A couple of heavy plaid jackets
2 insulated vests
A cycling jacket
Why all this crap? Well, it is -17C with wind chill this bright and sunny morning. Supposed to get seriously cold later on in the next few weeks. I don't wear them all at once though.
BTW, Welshie, your two loaves look a lot like a picture of me and my dad's bald noggins as we sat next to each othe once.
Be well and safe, compadres.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
I have seen a few stories on cleaning tips pages thay say use a Dr humidifier to dry your clothes overnight rather than a tumble dryer. Most people say it works really well.I read a suggestion somewhere recently (on CycleChat?

Lots of 'bitty' jobs done.
Went to the post office to pay the aunties care bill for the month. Got in the queue and realised I hadn't got the credit card
....... back home and start again.
Now.... answer me this........when I went the 1st time there was a queue of 9 people and just one person serving. When I got back there was absolutely no queue and two people serving....HOW does that work.

I just put our washing on a clothes horse in front of the back bedroom radiator and it dry's well enough.

From my Facebook page today,
Cop on horse says to little girl on bike, "Did Santa get you that?"
"Yes," replies the little girl.
"Well tell him to put a reflector light on it next year!" and fines her £5.
The little girl looks up at the cop and says, "Nice horse you've got there, did Santa bring you that?"
The cop chuckles and replies, "He sure did!"
"Well," says the little girl, "Next year tell Santa that the dick goes under the horse, not on top of it!"

I found the filter. To my surprise, there wasn't much fluff on it. I cleaned it anyway. Obviously, it isn't like a tumble dryer which has multiple garments rubbing bits of fluff off each other.
Elementary, Dave...
One person was not enough for a busy shop so a queue of nine people built up. They put an extra person on the counter and together they managed to clear the queue just before you got back there!
I was in a shop in Hebden Bridge once and, as usual, it had a big cold shelf crammed with bottles of full fat milk and there was no semi-slimmed left. I spoke to the owner of the shop and asked why he didn't stock less full fat and more semi-skimmed. Apparently, he thought there was little demand for semi-skimmed...

Perhaps not the place to post this.I wondered if any of you ladies and gentlemen have any experience of the Dacia Stepway Comfort car Had a look at one yesterday and was quite impressed.My wife’s bil has one and does seem quite a good car Certainly looks like a car that will suit mrs p and my self.

I noticed the trees are starting to sway a bit now.
Just go for mountain bike shoes and Spd pedals and you can at least walk a couple of miles if you have to. Not sure I would want to walk 20 miles in them though!
I noticed that back in the days when I used to drink alcohol Not huge quantities you understand It wasn’t only trees that were swaying was the lampposts telegraph poles
