The boring thread.....

On another (sad and tragic) matter, that US second amendment continues to be a marvellous idea,..., NOT!!!

A few months ago, Kirk said: "It's worth it to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the *Second Amendment".
He spread anti-transgender views and skepticism over the Covid-19 pandemic, and also publicly promoted the false claim that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump.

*The Second Amendment is a part of the United States Constitution's Bill of Rights that protects the right of people to keep and bear arms, and it was ratified on December 15, 1791.
You reap what you sow.

Good morning folks.   
Nice and sunny here, so far.    All my washing's outside blowing nicely.
(Well this is supposed to be the 'Boring'  thread.   )


P.S.  Thanks Scrumps and Michael for your comments on my little tinker, Gertie.

Funny, and yet true..

Did he not say himself and Mrs were heading off on holiday. 

I perhaps wrongly assumed that too, Raven.

Hope he's ok.

Sorry,  but did you mean this for the  fun and  'Boring'  thread, Dex?

Fair enough Mups.  Couldn't be bothered to create a new thread. 🥹😳

A friend of mine is thinking of going into one of the older people's living complex's,  and she has 
an appointment to go and look round and talk to the owner today.  

She wants me to go with her,  and I said I would.  Two heads are better than one, as they say.
Then we are going on to have a bit of lunch at an Italian restaurant nearby.

A change of scene and some company will be nice too.   
Anyone want some meatballs?

Don't suppose your friend fancies relocating up to South Manchester, Mups?  My MiL's flat is for sale at a very reasonable price 😉😬

I am in recovery mode today, I have a massive bruise around my eye, apparently a side effect from a sinus infection, I hurt my back lifting bags of rubbish a result of the decluttering prior to the move. Despite all that had the estate agent arrive to complete some paperwork, measure up rooms and take pictures, Vlad Villa should be on the market next week, today I shall do bugger all, Its a burden being this awesome.

Eh?  You've bought somewhere new but haven't had to sell your current house?  That's unusual.

I was going to put this in Hints and Tips but nobody reads that section...

New curtain pole ordered, carpet ordered, wallpaper arriving today, creaky floorboard fixed - there's a glint of light

I'd have put it in the hints and tips, and posted a link on this thread.

Daughter has sold her house, bought a new one, we will live with her, it's a big gaff. She expects to move in beginning of next month.
Plan A...she and family sort out the new gaff, then we move in. Convert garage to downstairs bedroom with en-suite for Mrs Vlad and I.
Well that's the plan anyway, estate agent seems confident that our gaff will sell quickly, fingers crossed.

[Scrumpy]

All the very best for you Vlad...
