Lovely little thing that was.  Wouldn't have paid that for it mind...

Today I learned that a small knob of butter in when you're boiling spuds stops the foam in the water. So it doesn't come pissing out from under the lid.

Long day. Tired.

Fairly chill and they seem open to me doing a 9 day fortnight, plus they close an hour early on Friday anyway.

 

Going by some of the phonecalls today, I'll soon have material for the motor trade thread...

Glad you made it through, top effort!

Hope tomorrow is as engaging and slightly less tiring

9 day fortnight sounds decent - have done it before and nice having the long weekend

This one worked till the end , but the fire and gas tap leaked .  The hot water boiler failed and it all got replaced with a combi ..

I get these in a monthly basis,even though I haven't owned a UK reg vehicle for 7 /8 years...

[myglaren]

I got one just after the tax was paid.  I pay by direct debit and knew it had been paid.

Went for a walk at Lenzie Moss whilst waiting on the Burd arriving by train...

It's an old peat bog that is handily located next to the station. About 2.5k for a loop, and it has deer kicking about.

Definitely not the worst vista near a station..

Then I came home and broke the news to Clio Stu about my Zoe acquisition...
