As you have turned off comments, I will put it here..... Nice!

Thanks, I didn't realise comment were off. Doh!

...that a week after my little "drunken tumble" the swelling and bruising is going down and although it feels like I have gone a few rounds with Mike Tyson I am on the mend.

There is a vertical line of bruising down that RH side and it feels like I have been punched on the nose to boot.
But thank goodness this is all that happened. A local lad died after falling and hitting his head just a few weeks ago.
I got off lightly.

Put all the stuff back in the Tratter today. Coo, what a faff! I treated some rust and changed some fittings to stainless. Then was spraying a seat frame outside and a bit that shouldn't be loose fell down the back of the composter!
Had to empty it and pull it out but still couldn't find the part. Bless my missus, she sifted through everything till it was found. All back together but took twice as long as expected..
Looking good @DanClarke, you've healed quickly, you handsome rogue you!

I fink (if you kinbe assed) you can add a nextra switch to the light switch to disable the fan when not required..
Least that's wot herselfs fitter mate says..

Eye plan to change the light switch to a double. One switch fer the light and tuvva one for the fan.

Eye also found oot me lectric eatid shower int lectric. Hot watta comes from me gas combi boiler. Always fort it were lectric but eye dun't use it anyway. Was happy finkin it was a backup for when me boiler fails. Lectric available if gas boiler fails. I dun't like lectric showers as they can be dangerous and eggspensive to run so there is a good side ter finding oot tis not lectric.

I was wondering that earlier too.

 

[Turktowner]

Right.
Just seen a nad for a coffee machine that will make you a coffee by askin Alexa.
Course that only wuks if you has already loaded the bastid wif a new capsool.
So you has to load a capsool after you has taken your last coffee outta machine.
Tell you what, why not put a fresh capsool inna machine an press the bloody button an make a bloody coffee when you wants one, only takes a minute!
You know what, this proliferation of "clever" bollix is really gettin on my tits.
"Is clever, so is cool, ergo you wants it, so you wants to spend a ton on a bloody coffee machine!"
I know I'm a luddite Tratterer, but donnez mois un break for Chrissakes. I gots a jar of instant anna fuggin spoon!
Some cockwomble behind me last night in a Tesla was so enamoured wif his infotainment screen he nearly ran into the back of me Tratter. Twunt!
Pointless, irrelevant, dangerous...
An don't get me started on super dooper 4k eighty inch tellys.. I int got 4k eyes has I?!


I feels betterer.
Fank you.
