Good morning to everyone on this sunny Sunday. Today the cold wind has gone so it feels warmer outside, infact warmer than in the house.
Strolled down to the post box this morning with my letter for my local MP then made a quick visit to Big W for some LED lights.
I have decided to replace the remaining fluorescent bulbs (those stupid ones you need to turn on five minutes before you enter the room) with LED ones. I have a surprising number left because they last so damn long.
Have postponed my Bunnings visit to a weekday, I want to combine it with a visit to the rubbish dump which is far less busy on a weekday. I have some metal objects (ute tailgate etc) and now some electronic stuff old computer and monitor) for recycling - ie the free bit.
Apart from that not much is happening in my neck of the woods. Enjoy the remains of the weekend.
There isn’t much to do today, so I’ll probably spend much of it pottering about or sitting down. We could go to Currys and look at a printer/scanner we’re thinking of getting I suppose.
A change of plan today. Instead of heading into town we decided to stroll down to the garden centre and have refreshments in their pleasant cafe. I really couldn’t face the hubbub of town today, anyway I need a bag of multipurpose compost. I might well be tempted to go for a new geranium and hot chilli plant for the windowsill too!
Mart I use an Epson XP 970 printerfthat also scans . Iit takes 6 in carts - prints up to A3 size jet still has the footprint of an A4 printer. had he 960 version oe many many years until it wore out
Beast definitely in my bad books today! She left 4 deposits plus threw up on the conservatory floor! Fortunately, I have been putting newspapers down in her usual spots so it was easier to clean up. She went out immediately after breakfast while I was still clearing up! I actually think she isn’t well but neighbours took her to the vet who said she does have arthritis in her rear legs but apart from that all is fine.
As we are forecast bright sunshine all day my neighbourly duties will now include watering their garden this evening – they grow soft fruits and vegetables. The last time I had to do that I managed to break the hose!
Not much else happening today – will probably sit in the garden reading this afternoon
Thanks RS - I’ll look into that one. One requirement is that it needs to print on 300gsm card/paper. A feature that appeals is refillable ink tanks, although that requirement isn’t set in stone.
G’ Day folks…
Another lazy Sunday and spending far too much time on the forum (according to Mrs Fox)
A five mile saunter around my country course with a couple of short sharp intervals but it was too nice, and a bit warm, for doing too much jogging.
Stopped off at the ATM outside the Tesco to draw out some cash for John the roofer tomorrow. He prefers to be paid in cash…£
I can only draw out £200 at a time from the machine, so it requires three visits over three days. I hope the bank doesn’t think someones nicked my debit card and are drawing money out from locations all over South Yorkshire…
Printers @mart …
I try to buy just a printer, because if they are combined and it packs up, you end up with several working scanners and copiers but have to buy a new printer…It’s always the printer that fails.
The beef in the oven is coming on nicely, so It’s off to the cellar to select some sleeping fluid (red wine) and then it’ll probably be a couple of episodes of Downton Abbey…Unless Mrs Fox falls asleep, then it’ll be ‘Bangers and Cash’
