Up at five this morning as my other half is dayshift again, went back to bed and got another couple of hours this time. Horrible day here, weather warning for rain has come to fruition.

Never had Red Bull or any other energy drink, mainly because when they came out I was a traction inspector on the railway overseeing the train drivers and we were issuing warnings about the stuff due to the chemicals in them. Energy drinks were first introduced by the US Army during the Vietnam war to help the soldiers stay awake.

Morning Phil, I watched your dashcam video of the Rover and what a lovely sight, the thing that struck me near the end of the video were those two lads pushing a hand cart type thing in the offside lane


The rain has finally stopped here, Chicken broth weather so I'm getting a pre made container out of the freezer for later.

Back at the vets tonight with Meg to have her dressing changed, hopefully it’ll be healing nicely.
I’m in Norwich now and believe it or not.....The sun is out and it’s mild as well

Doing some washing, just got soaked dashing between the back door and the tumble dryer in the shed. Have a big barrel that collects rainwater from the shed roof, water is pouring out of the overflow like a hose.
