My lad has fixed up one of those grip handles by the back door as the step is quite high.   So that's it then, this is officially and old person's house. 

I bought small bottles of water and keep them in the fridge, I usually get through 3 a day and take one up to bed too so thats 2 litres.

Too hot.....lots of sweaty footballers 

    

dreadful news

Amazon must be busy with their Prime sale. I ordered something for today. Amazon usually deliver here about 3:30 but it isn't even out for delivery yet so it seems it will be this evening before it arrives.

Wasn't all that late after all - arrived about 4:15

Your package was left in a secure location.      Dump and scoot executed. Bell not rung.

Looks like the world is jumping forward to help which is some good news. 

This sounds bad,  it was announced on the news just now.
   
They are having  7.2 - 7.5 magnitude earthquakes there.   So far they has killed over 160 people and many are buried under collapsed buildings.   
I can't imagine how terrifying that must feel to buried alive like that

Aww, they are a couple of cuties, Mups.

Quote from: Mups on Today at 11:45:56 AMI think it was my son who used to have one of those, Raven,  but it made a 'whirring'  noise and I wouldn't have liked that in my ear all night.
Is yours silent?

I also might be worried it would fall down on me during the night and chop me into bits!   

Yes it's silent, had it a few years now, but if it starts humming then it comes down. I also used to worry about it landing on me but it's near the bottom of the bed not above us. Also have another one sitting on the chest of drawers, that blows over the bed. This is ours.
