Good morning to every forum person on this lovely sunny and warm Autumn day, 25° here already.
Have have been a busy bee this morning, my washing machine was set doing it’s thing early, so all my laundry is on the line.
Yesterday arvo mowed all the grass or at least all I was going to mow so was pleased with that.
Then I filled my green bin with some branches and overgrown stuff I had collected, the residue went into my land fill bin. Yes, it is bin day tomorrow and unusually both my bins were put out before midday. Followed this up with brushing the path to get rid of the dead leaves they went into the compost.
Finally this morning I checked the electrical earth on my trailer (especially the aluminium mudguards that I use as a cooking surface) something I like to do occasionally for my own peace of mind. However I am frustrated and worried by the Queensland flooding with more rain there today, I suspect my plans for May are going to have to be postponed.
Anyway, I just rewarded myself with a bowl of ice cream! Not sure what this arvo will bring but I hope it involves more interesting events than the morning. At least the weekend beckons.
Have a lovely day, I expect for most of you things are warming up and the days getting longer.
Morning all – yes the sun is shining albeit still quite cold
Managed to find my way to and from the surgery without getting lost yesterday (my sense of direction must be improving!)
Enjoy your visit to the theatre Eliza – I always liked the Poirot stories
Yesterday was bin day here – general rubbish is collected every 2 weeks, food waste, garden waste and recycling are collected every week. There is talk of the general rubbish only being collected every 3 weeks, not something that would bother me but I do wonder how families would manage
Neighbour called in for coffee she brought in a bottle of wine as a thank you for looking after the beast – keep telling her it isn’t necessary!
Today’s plan is the regular weekly get together with the “girls” for coffee cake and gossip, followed by grocery shopping
I seem to have recovered from my minor lassitude of the past few days
I’ve had a shower & breakfast, and soon I’ll go into the town centre for a few errands - bank, library, make a dentist’s appointment … might even have a bar meal
Well that was my thoughts Bruce. Painting on plastic is a no no and just makes another job when it all peels orf…
Good morning everyone, my day has been turned upside down. I was due to drive a neighbour to hospital for an early appointment, something to do with her eyes but it was cancelled due to lack of staff. What the hell is happening to the NHS? My daughter also had an appointment cancelled due to a lack of staff…Anyway, haven’t done my walk so I’ll go now and I fancy a long un’…
Here’s a question for all of you photography buffs…What’s the point of having a camera on my new phone that takes photos in 50 mega pixel?
I save all my photos in 1 meg bytes and they download onto my laptop in a massive size and I have to resize them. and apart from that, it takes almost one month to download such a large photo…(well perhaps not a month but you know what I mean)
.
People do paint their house number on their bins because they are all the same. You can even buy vinyl stickers to put on them though I have never seen anyone buy them.
Maybe I just don’t live in the kind of area where anyone would pay $40 when a slap of spare paint would do and if the council replace your bin you’d have to buy them again
At least the weekend beckons.
