(the clouds part, a single shaft of sunlight illuminates my bathroom and the tremolo voices of angels sound) 

I don't want to be that stockpiling twat, but I was down to three rolls and an element of forward planning seems appropriate under the circumstances. This morning I have been to Tesco x2, Asda x2,  a Co-op, an Aldi and came up trumps on my second branch of Sainsburys. Never has the idea of coconut scented bog roll seemed so exciting.

Crazed bog roll purchase?

Nope. Lady stole a bunch of baby clothes, hoofed it in the parking lot to make a swift getaway, hit a pole and upended her car.

She got as far as... The front door. Way to go.

To the pub?

 

I went Up and round the Wrekin.

You can see to hills: Malven, Clueidian and Cannock chase 

And i could see Birmingham, in the distance. 

Was going to visit a pub, but instead went to Shrewsbury to Morrisons.  For a coffee.

I rescued the entire North Shields fish quay on Saturday morning while out with the dog.
I spotted the jetty bit on fire and rang the brigade. I used what 3 words and they turned up in 5 minutes flat.

How the hell does a jetty catch fire?

No idea. I mentioned to gf that even if I stood there with my blow torch at it, I doubt it would light.

They got the Briggs and Stratton car out of mothballs!

Just had an email from the local Vauxhall dealers with today’s 2 specials....

200 litres of Ford 0w30 for £575 and 36 toilet rolls for £9.95!!

Bet they sell more of the latter...

There are far less comfortable places to sit and wait for a low loader whilst stranded in the middle of a busy junction with a faulty handbrake that won’t release ?

Despite the circumstances, Volvo silliness must go on.

Unfortunately things got a bit stuck. Our first instinct was to phone dad.

He's still here really though.

£600 is just taking the piss tbf. I know he has a buisness etc but surely a bini would be easier to shift.

I saw a red Metro 6R4 being trailered behind a Convoy on the M1, Thursday afternoon. Sadly I was on top of it, and 4 lanes apart, before my passenger (my dad) could react in time to get a pic.
