From that lot we might donate the occassional plate scraping, bones and fish skin. The rest goes on my compost heap.

Good morning. Dull, grey, misty and cold. I had planned a day of sunshine on the allotment. I feel dreadful after waking at 2.30am. I'm off for a nap shortly, then I'll go to the allotment.
I realised earlier today my sons are the last of the family line!!!! ☹️☹️ If they don't produce a son that's it, we will become extinct. No more PaulSBs. Not sure how I feel about that. The end of the family line. Who will pass on my jeans?

Normally the charity shop gets my JEANS,
unless my son has a son, wich is looking unlikely my Genes will end with him.😁
Our Daughter is expecting a baby in July, but the family name won't continue as she took her husband's name.

Personally when I stop using my jeans they are pretty much useless
My wife generally has to force me to chuck them out due to holes and teh like
I would just downgrade them to gardening/DIY and "cycling in muddy weather" and never chuck them out!!
Genes is a different matter - I have no sons, so my name dies with me
Well - quite a common name so that will continue
In fact mu wife's sister married a bloke with the same surname
But GODS I hope we are not related!!!
Genes are OK - I have a daughter so that's her problem now!
My surname is not common being Smith.
My Dad had 7 brothers so there will be relatives out there somewhere but due to his religious conversion he/we had no contact with most of them. I knew 1 uncle but he died childless.
My son has a son somewhere but that marriage was a disaster and he lost contact 20+years ago.
So, it looks like the world will miss out on any genius from my loins.

Families can be weird
By GranDad and Gran were both from large families
but as they both "married beneath themselves" they lost contact with them all
We were in contact with one Aunt - Aunty Iris
but she was a spinster her whole life and just did what she thought was right and ignored any dictates from the family
Very prim and proper but a nice person if you didn;t do something she disapproved of!!
Gran's family were from Northern Ireland - the Protestant bit
I think her bits of it left to get away from them!!
so I have genes out there - but some might well be best dying off!!!

I haven't worn my jeans for ages, most of the time I wear Ronhills trackters
or my tiktok leggings.
or my tiktok leggings.
I'm frightened of asking what tiktok leggings are.
Does Ron hill not mind ?
I loz around in an old pair of M&S tracky bottoms. Every now n again I sling them in with the dark washing and they come out fine.
Just had my 2nd walk of the day. Legs are wobbly but they got me an acceptable distance.
I used my steed to go to the co-op. I used to put my rucksack on, walk there, get the shopping and enjoy the walk back. Even through winter in the snow, I'd get togged up and enjoy the exercise but hey ho.

Re food disposal.
We have a large squadron of crows that live in 'our' woods and the hefty buggers can easily lift a whole chicken carcass and fly off with it! Amazing to watch.
