Sun keeps coming and going here. So much for Ging staying one night in the Lakes, she's away to bleedin' Cornwall with her Windemere friends.

Evening all, had a break from swimming today. Good weather, sunny and 28C. Because of the heat at the coast, except for wooden louvred shutters, there is no glass in the windows and everything is open to the elements. At the top of the wall facing the sea, 3 large air bricks have been removed and grills have been put in their place to stop mice, squirrels, bats and other wildlife from getting in. The idea behind this is to improve ventilation.
Last night, I watched “Custer of the West” on YouTube, full movie and free. |

Evening all, It's gone quite warm & muggy here now, Just back from Bolton hospital with Missus appointment & got roped into the BIG SHOP on the way back at the local ASDA .
I'm not self service compatible at those check out your own stuff contraptions Never got through one yet without cursing & giving in I said you need to open up a checkout for this lot I've no patience left with them things Ping meals for tea as I couldn't be bothered to cook owt tonight, Chicken Korma wi Pilau rice & a Garlic Naan bread for tea Quote:
Evening Phil, I have the windows open throughout the year even the bedroom windows through Winter, I think I've got a dodgy thermostat I like a breeze coming in I usually get kicked out & go into the back bedroom when she finds out the windows are open I've been watching a lot of old films lately like Sherlock Holmes on the free 'Feature Film' youtube channel, They've got all the old classic Westerns, Detectives,Sci-Fi & everything in between on there for nowt

Went into Wilkinsons today and thought there must be only one checkout open because of the long queue. But no, it was because all the others had been converted to self-service and card payment only. THAT says it all!!

Morning all, The sun is up & hot already, Doesn't look like it's going to last according to the weather forecast.

It was like that the last time I was in Wilko's in Bolton, Lots of people complaining about them doing that, Same with our local small ASDA store, they've taken all but one checkout out & replaced them with self-service/card only, Cash still rules here in this neck o the woods & the older people wont use a card.
