Morning all, it’s dry today for once, so the forecast is for rain every other day next week.
We still haven’t left my mother’s rested at her parents grave because the local council are being awkward.

Mk2 railway carriages had an anti wheel lock system, if a wheel locked during braking a valve progressively released the brake until the wheel began rotating again. However, it did not reapply the brake once it started turning again hence the common name for the valve was the "dumper valve" because if enough of them activated they could dump you in the sh..

Morning all.
Back home after Quizzie's Friday morning swim. Just about made it before the rain came. Due to be pretty grim all afternoon. What with poorly arms, Joker valves (do you mend them with a Batman KAPOW!?), storms and the council playing up it's good to hear that Phil has the blessing of the Drs to eat chocolate & Crisps . Take care everyone. |

Chicken Korma here, made and ready to reheat when Ging gets home. I know Korma is a bit lame compared to my usual cooking but Ging's having a problem with spicy stuff just now.

Had a look at changing the phone battery . . . . err no, not until I'm better prepared! My model is slightly different to the video I looked at, found the correct one, there's an additional plate that has to be removed, four screws different lengths that have to go back into the right holes during reassembly. Also the internal screws are so minute I need to do something about magnifying specs or a magnifying glass on a stand like I used to have when I was into model making. Its doable and not that difficult but as I said, I need to be better prepared.

Our daughters just got home & brought a Singapore noodle meal in three trays from the Chinese takeaway, Sweet Jesus me mouths on fire just tasting it Fireworks are very quiet this year, A reflection of the economic times I think. Usually from the end of September to the week after bonfire night it was like WWIII around here. Ours cats thank you.

Morning everyone from soaking wet land of the pasty.
Torrential rain most of yesterday and last night. But this morning it looks like it is brightening up. I might be able to give the fleet a wash.
