The Chill Out Zone

[reworht]

Good morning fellow sun worshippers - bright and sunny, but more importantly, the temperature has risen by a fair few degrees and the cold North Easterly wind seems to have abated. We're awaiting family (son & daughter too) deliveries of various prescriptions and a few other bits'n'bobs.

I'm getting perilously close to letting SWMBO loose on my hair with an electric hair trimmer. The question is - which comb - a number 1 or a number 4 ? Maybe the answer is "the one which will do less damage to my jugular "

Hi Andy, sorry to hear you had a bad night - sometimes they just get a whiff of something they don't like and are kind enough to tell us about it.

By accident caught a programme on Channel 5 last night about dogs with extraordinary jobs. Last night's was a dog that scents for killer whale scat (Google it - not sure if the word I want to use will pass the swear filter) to help the researchers follow & find them. Then they use it for DNA testing and all sorts of clever stuff. Definitely worth a look.

Lets see what today brings

Andy.

I saw that dog programme last night too Andy - more intelligence than a large percentage of the world's population I reckon

Morning all, bright ,dry,and warm this morning. A bit of diy to do today, the banister keeps coming off the wall and I have filled in the hole many times, but it just works itself loose again. So this time I ripped all the filler out,filled the hole with cement,need to sand down a bit and put some finishing plaster on before I re drill the holes for the ralwlplugs..

Ps Andy the programme was called “Dogs With Extraordinary Jobs”

I had to do more or less the same job Rich, Missus pulled it off the wall A few sherries too many I reckon It didn't pull the screws & rawlplugs out! Every screw head snapped off leaving the screw body in the wall


They were such a pig to get out I ended up grinding them off with the grinder & Plastering over them.
I moved the bannister two inches to fresh brickwork.

Unfortunately it’s not possible to do that with mine as it would make it too unstable. It’s the short banister after the curve in the stairs, so to move the bracket would leave too much of an overhang either side which would make it unstable. Not enough room to move the bracket further out either.

Beautiful afternoon here, Missus has done the "Big Shop" wi a leopard skin print face mask on We're having back o the freezer drawer Cod & creamy cheese fishcakes, Mash, Sweetcorn, Carrot &, Broccoli for tea .

Cider supplies are stocked up nicely too.

What makes me think that when (if?) we get to the end of the coronavirus, all car owners are going to get a right caning in terms of taxation and restrictions/regfulations on driving?

See paragraphs 4, 5, & 6 of this article:-
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tees-52386582

Think I'll start looking for a cave in the hills now before there's a rush to go back to One Million Years B.C. - as long as I can take Raquel Welsh with me

On a different tack - I do not believe it !
On Sunday, my nutty next door neighbour was out washing and polishing his car (including a buff up with an electric polisher).
Today - he's used a pressure washer, with the gun about 6" away from his paintwork, to wash it - despite the fact the car hasn't moved since Sunday !!!!!!!!!!!!
