I popped in to see what was afoot in the world of trivia after a busy day at work followed by a very decent theatrical production (Senior Princess Champers on stage for two hours, the Junior Princess playing violin in the ensemble accompanying) and then I see you are still at large FFS frown

I think as soon as you fix something, it's just asking for something else to go wrong. I'd like to be pessimistic about it but I'm just too fatalistic to be that giddy

's early weeping Nowt worse than getting up and all you can think of is when you can get back to sleep

Working outside today. Looks a bit parky out there. Porridge for breakfast then.

No wind or rain, but it was cold enough to freeze my windscreen. I chickened out of my intended ride to work on the Triumph. Maybe tomorrow.

Morning. Parky is the word. I don't think my neighbours much appreciated me scraping the ice off the car this morning at toofirth this morning. needs must and all that. Winter tyres on FWD shopping cart vs summers on barge... winters won on my jaunt around the chill highways and byways (other alternative routes not discriminated against) of Brighton.

Leave it. Between refurbishment tickle ups invite calamity in my experience. It took eight years for Mrs C's car to acquire 13 car park dings. We put it into the body shop for a thorough tidy up and less than a week after it came back it looks as though someone in an adjacent car put a bag of shopping on the boot and then dragged it off. I was a bit fed up at the time, but it's life. Rather than try to make it perfect again immediately we'll just wait for a small collection of dents and scrapes to accrue and have it done again. Only ten more to go. One of the new ones is right in the middle of the passenger door.

Grrr.

nono It's life.

Oh, yeah. smile

Good morning. That was a great sleep, thanks for your hospitality. I may pop in more often when around these parts.

It would be nice to have an independent arbiter for life's dilemmas. I'm pleased you've volunteered Iva's services.

I've been a bit wonky of late. A sore throat that has me waking and choking on my own snot in a really scary way, which resulted in a sunday night in A&E and a visit by the senior doc who scratched his head, asked a lot of questions and then suggested some steroids and nasal syringing. Now, having looked this up and watched several videos at 5 in the morning, I conclude that this is basically placing a teapot to one nostril and watching the 'gloop' pour out the other.

Two questions immediately sprang to mind.

1. Do I use my finest teapot, or will any do?
2. The content, earl grey, a smokey white, or Yorkshire's finest gold?

Use the funnel out of the garage, a chipped Sports Direct mug and PG Tips.
