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

My afternoon snooze was quite unsatisfactory.. In fact, I didn't ☹️

I had 30 minutes. Enjoyed it.
Sorry ^_^
Mt WD does most of the cooking. So it was down to him. To be fair he isn't a big fan.of white sauce either but the thought it might be a bit bland so made it.

Ahhh so you are just management in the kitchen ??

Well....my 20 year old Honda CRV has finally bit the dust. :sad:
Failed it's MOT on corrosion amongst a couple of other things. I've had it over 6 years and it's been the best car I've ever owned. Loved it!
I'm going to look at a nice low mileage Freelander 2 tomorrow morning.
Might buy that and get the CRV repaired and sold on privately. Who knows...

Meanwhile, specially for @PaulSB , today's little job was to make up a press arbor plate out of some 8mm mild steel.

If you don’t mind me asking…

You’re at the end of life with a Honda (reliable) that you think is the best car you’ve ever had, and you’re considering a Freelander? 🤔

Morning. Up early but I forgot the forecast was for some early rain.

Good morning. Up a bit earlier as Mrs Tkk has an early train to the Metropolis. She's collecting granddaughter, popping in to the Apple store to have a replacement battery fitted to her iPhone 12 Mini, and also visiting Brompton Junction for a test ride of a G Line ( you can't have too many bikes ).
She's back tomorrow so in the meantime I can have a whole day to myself on the razz ( not really, I've been left a list 🥲 ) 😁

Good morning. Grey and dull outside. Awake since 2.30 again. I was very tired, again, last night and in bed and asleep by 9.15. I've had enough sleep but this is playing havoc with my sleep pattern. It needs some thought.

I had planned a morning on the allotment but I don't really feel up for that. Instead I'll get all the chores done and the allotment tomorrow. It's a cards group this afternoon. I've yet to decide if I fancy bridge or canasta today. I think Mrs P will expect me to "think about tea" - in our house this is code for you're cooking tonight. :laugh::laugh:
