Today I took W to the airport for her first trip to Blighty. Got there in plenty of time. Got back 45 mins later so at about 13:30. She was still in the airport at 1600hrs. Flipping Ryan hair. She said apparently the plane never fully left...

I have fixed 2 minor faults on the Mini today. :) L-Turn tell-tale on the dash was not working. Took the whole cluster out and checked the bulb which was OK. I cleaned the copper track and tweaked the bulb-holder spring contacts and it all...

Just hadda cool baff to cool down. Left the baff room door closed because the sun is about to hit the window. Nice and cool in the hall. Upstairs ok but downstairs is coolerer.

As you can imagine we, not having air con in the house, have become quite good at keeping the house cool. We close windows and curtains when the sun is on them but open doors and windows that are in the shade, which means the north facing side...

My loft is gleaming now. I’m just in the process of spraying down everything with a Dettol solution. I’m not the biggest fan of Dettol smell but it’s an improvement on smelling like burnt hair on a turd. Problem is I go up there, spray and come...

Spent all morning writing a "stinker" for the missus to send to the coroner's orifice. Apparently she (coroner) is sufficiently interested to want the hospital to respond to our questions. Nothing will change the result, but we want to know...

Today I will be mostly resting. Been working hard for a few weeks, now exhausted. And it will be too hot for the next few days to do much. Cold beers at the ready in the fridge for this afternoon.

Not true. I has a baff regularly ----- at the start of every season. Me oinker takes the second baff, we is environmentally aware, don't waste water. (But he complains that he gets out muckier than when he went in).

So it only took 2.30 this morning to clear one half of the loft, 30 bags zip tied off, hoovered and bleached. Daughter helped. I’ve bought all the ppe, hepa vacuum, paid her £300 and still come in £2k under quote skip dependant. Same task again...

Exacerbated by being in a Tyvex suit with a ffp face mask on 🤣 It’s my own fault, I could’ve paid the £3k the contractor wanted to do the job. I just channelled my inner @kevstar and thought the money would be better spent on a tractor.

Morning All. :D Lovely day here. :) A "free" day (no chores). :) Have a great day! :D

Morning folks :). Well the flood alert for the Marjon Mansion basement has been lifted:). The vertical drop of pipe had dropped and become disconnected from the shower syhpon drain elbow, Why I have no idea, can only really put it down to the...

Mate of mine had kidney stones in his 20s. He said it was the most excruciating pain. He has not drunk anything but water since, that was 25 years ago.

Morning All. :D Raining. :) Got to go all the way to Basildon to a bank because my wife's identity cannot be confirmed by their online apps. They use equifax etc. to determine that you are a real person. All bills are in my name, she has no...

Its a 3.5mm stone so the scanner says, must be moving, pain is constant and I'm only getting part relief for about 2 hours from painkillers, taking codein and paracetomal together. Hopefully it'll ease soon, not getting anything done 😕
