Good morning. Rather dull and chilly here at the mo.
Thought you'd like to know that.

Ah good. Thought it was just me getting into the autumn spirit.

Mups · October 09, 2025, 10:39:50 AM

Just need to nip the dogs out before the cooker mender comes this afternoon.

I'm going to get and install an additional (Tapo) security camera at home, so I can monitor the forthcoming weather in real-time by pointing it at my hi-tech bit of kit...

I have re-filled the garden bin.. It is beautiful here..
Painting my nails because they look rough..
... and a coffee...
I am going to clean my skirting boards next.. I don't look at them very often..

I am not sure I could cope with all the excitement nowadays.

Mind you, she does a thorough job. Takes them off the wall and drives them down to the car wash.

Yes, I might have nightmares and have to hang on to my teddy bear tonight.

Cooker man came today. Turns out it was one of the elements that had blown.
He is ordering the part and will ring me when he has got it.
In the meantime, he said it is still safe to use the grill and the big main oven though.

Who remembers Michael Parkinson? I used to like his interviews.
Just watching an old interview of Parky interviewing a young, handsome Robert Redford.
So much nicer and different to the interviewers nowadays who constantly interrupt and talk over everyone else.

Dextrous63 · October 09, 2025, 10:13:06 PM

Hoorah, and yes to Parky.
