Exactly. It needs doing asap, which is fair enough. This is on the back of the washing machine in the same flat going on the blink a couple of weeks ago.

I have been dragged out of retirement to help a former student with some A level algebra for an hour or so.

Since I haven’t looked at any of this drivel for several months, it’ll be interesting to see whether my once formidable prowess shows any sign of life.

Pretty unlikely. Worth a punt though.

Nothing much else planned.

Have a safe, profitable and enjoyable day, each and all.

PS - my letting agent found a different boiler repair person, who’s going to do the repair for about £150 less than the first one. That’s a nice email to wake up to. :slightly_smiling_face:

Morning, What a horrible night I’ve had, all bad dreams about the deaths of people I’ve lost, mum, dad, nana and gramps. A couple of close friends and my dogs, sheepies and Dageus. Dunc woke me up as he was worried, said I was getting really distressed. Hope that was not a sign of something to come. :face_with_spiral_eyes: Got up and had a latte and returned to bed around five. Finally slept and not long awake Sheeeze I really hope that was a one off.
Might go to the pool this afternoon but must go to Tesco for some bread n milk ect
Enjoy your day everyone. :slightly_smiling_face:

Yep Rox. I sometimes have flashbacks to things I’ve long since forgotten about. Makes one wonder if the brain and body are preparing one for the big “off”.

Scary :flushed:

Good evening. Had another hospital appointment this morning, she was quite pleased with the result but still have a slight touch of sun damage. Had some more treatment and have another appointment in five months. Rox I hate nights like that when you cant sleep because of bad dreams.

Good Evening All.not been around for a wee while as I’ve had some health prob’s…nothing too serious,

I too dream a lot about the people I loved who are now dead,but they are quite happy dreams as We are All young and having a great time…sometimes I just don’t want to wake up as I’m always disappointed when I do :disappointed:

Glad Your treatment is working ok Jessie and will sort out the sun damage,

Good morning. Looks like we had some more rain here last night. Housework for me today and some ironing, also a few things to take back to the shops. May good to see you posting again with us, Hope your feeling better .

Hi and welcome Mr Patrick the Logger. Just of interest what part of USA do you live in - just roughly. I’m the grumpy old Scotsman, retired electrical engineer, my dear wife is from Georgia and now we live in Yorkshire. And we have a dog. Now you know everything about me… :grinning:

Good morning! Oh, enjoy the hair salon—that’s always a nice way to start the weekend. And homemade soup sounds amazing, especially as the weather cools down. Let me know how it turns out!

Morning, Fine n dry here, hope it lasts and I can get some outside stuff done. :crossed_fingers:
Went to the pool and only another 4 people in…Bliss.
Has my usual coffee at The Front and watched a now calm again ocean.
I usually have a pot of soup n tatties sitting as Dunc likes a couple of bowls for his lunch.
Just house jobs this afternoon.
Enjoy your day everyone. :slightly_smiling_face:

Good morning! Having the pool almost to yourself sounds like pure bliss. Nothing beats a quiet swim followed by coffee with an ocean view! Hope the weather holds out for your outdoor jobs. Enjoy the calm afternoon

Ah, the tattie soup - my mother made it regularly. I’ll mention it to my wife - she’s a pretty good cook !

Morning all, and welcome Patrick.

Soup, eh? Haven’t made any for ages. I’ll suggest to the domestic staff (Mrs and Daughter Dex) that I be allowed to make some for them next week, in between the rest of the washing, ironing, house repairs, cooking other meals etc etc that I do most days anyway.

Talking of which, in a short while I’ll have the house to myself for a few hours which means an opportunity to finished off some touching up of paintwork without being disturbed or it being ruined before a chance to dry.

Am chomping at the bit…

Have a good one, each and all.
