Good morning all.
Another day of relaxing by the pool, then doing aquarobics in the pool.
Sunny with 21⁰ temperature today.
Enjoy your day everyone
Don't you go and strain yourself.

Far more exciting here in the algarve. 🙄
Arrived yesterday by car, just missed Storm Kristin by 24 hours. Still as windy as heck though and 21C is just a dream…

Just read an article by Adrian Chiles
yes - I know - but it was about Runcorn and how wonderful it is so I though I better see what he said
turns out that he crossed The Bridge (we have 3 but apparently he doesn;t know this) and dropped his daughter off at the train station
then left - he didn;t say how - but if he went across the bridge he would have to return that way to get back to where he came from
and The Bridge is right next to the station
so he basically wrote an article saying how great Runcorn is based on one bridge and a train station
might as well harp on about London based on Euston Station and the nearest McDonalds!
he has always struck me as a prat

MorningYes, to my very limited knowledge the Algarve can be hit & miss at this time of year whereas the Canaries have a better chance.
The saga of Screwfix.
I phone head office this morning and the best they offer is......they will collect the damaged one (one vehicle) and deliver a replacement (a different vehicle) but can't do it till tomorrow.
They won't offer any financial compensation. They say I should check everything is OK BEFORE I get a contractor in
.....I said "and how do I check it's working without the contractor wiring it in and wall mounting it"??
Rules is rules

How dreadful
You've only had it 5 minutes and there is a very dodgy looking guy nicking it.
