Tell Us Something Really Trivial About Your Life (Vol 34)
Discussion
Off to bed now, busy day tomorrow.
Video conference meeting first thing then I have a few hours spare in which I need to help my father fix his car.
He has recently bought Twingo turbo as a new tow car to go behind his motor home. Had the towing brackets fitted earlier in the week but now the brakes are sticking and he has a traction control warning light on.

I once drove a sodding great Winnebago, did about 8 mpg I seem to recall. That had some sort of tow car on the back, one of those Smart things I think.
Anyhow, it got me thinking - wouldn't it make more sense to tow the Winnebago with the tow car? Save an awful lot on fuel, it would.

I was actually thinking more along the lines of a badger or at least a fox or even a hedgehog!!!!

Morning all. Just put some washing on. Just having my usual breakfast.
Lost a stone and a half on furlough.
Dunno what I’m doing today apart from waffling.

Sorry I'm a bit late on parade today, I've been busy sleeping.
I won't let it happen again, there's no time to waste. I'm trying to stay a couple of steps ahead of the Rim Groper.
During the lockdown, I too have lost about a stone and a half.
Mostly muscle.
Luckily, by way of compensation, I have put on about three stones of flab.
It's a bit drier here oop norf today, I can even see one or two patches of Rioja Blue sky, so hopefully it stays fine for S&M whilst he gets his top off.
I don't know why Bobbers is complaining about that bitter taste in his mouth? I love the taste of bitter on my tongue, I drink pints and pints of the stuff. I don't mix it with tadpoles though. Perhaps that's where he's going wrong?
Anyway,
He lives not far away from my daughter, but I shall tell her not to worry too much about it: TVR owners are mostly harmless.
And it gives me an excuse to get Percy's top off and go for a little hoon up to Broadbottom and beyond.
ION, it's dustbin day here oop norf. Green and Black today! Woohoo!
Unfortunately, it's really the Brown that needs emptying,
Bottles and cans are overflowing. I am having to secretly, carefully and stealthily place my burgeoning empties into various neighbours' bins in the dead of night, as quietly as possible. :ssshhhh: Don't tell them!
Edit: Perhaps I should switch to consuming just wine from those bulk boxes with a plastic bag inside. They would be so much quieter than all the beer cans and whisky and wine bottles.
Edited for accuracy.

According to various TV documentary exposés, most of our diligently recycled plastic is carted by bulk transporter ships to the other side of the world and dumped in vast mountainous piles of other waste next to the shorelines of poorer countries like Malaysia and India and Sri Lanka and Ceylon Dionne, where it is more easily accessible to dolphins, fish, and locals in need of a Sainsbury's carrier bag.
There's nice, isn't it?.

Yeah, I'm going to click that carefully considered bait.
It looks more like "When Graham Hill met Tony Blackburn."
Not sure about the short girl with him though. Nice blouse, awful bob.
It's like a copy of Pauline's hairstyle.
You know, Pauline with the pens? From Royston Vasey Jobseekers?
