I had leftovers for lunch, they were very nice.

I ache in a lot of places.
I'm afraid that volunteers to rub them better are a bit thin on the ground in these here parts, Bobbers.

Leftovers?
Luxury!

I dream of having leftovers...

Care required, glen. Leftovers made Bobbers ache.

Worse! Undefined aches!

A dilemma is something with two potential solutions.

A quandry is where they did dry stone from

Apologies, I arrived home, put all the Christmas lights on, poured a large whisky and sat in front of the TV.

I’ve had a bit of a day!
Usual up and down ladders all morning carrying buckets of mortar and rocks and applying mortar etc.
Didn’t get done till 13.00 hours. Home, lunch and out again by 13.30 hours!
Of I go in the tipper truck to find some red 0/4 sand! A chap told me what town where I might find it but not the name of the quarry or where it might be.
Anyways I go through one village to find a road diversion. Thirty (30) bloody KLM’s out of the way.
After two (2) hours and three (3) quarry’s I find the right quarry.
All very helpful and the kind lady in the weighbridge gave me directions back to Magooland easy like.

The red sand is now very hard to find, it will give me the cream like colour mortar once mixed with white lime.
Home by around 4.45 so a full day by my standards these days.

Cramp in my left leg is rather gripping at the moment.

I’ve got a fair few scaffolding pals and I’ve had a few run ins with a few teams in years past. Most problems occurred when us plasterers would cut through poles to give us access to the walls when rendering external walls on site. We were usually on tight prices so had no time to wait about like.
All good fun. Electricians loved us also!

Trouble in paradise.

Just lost a front tooth biting into a rather delish but over crunchy honeycomb biscuit! What sympathy do it get? Erin Dawes creasing up with mirth.

Now I need to find a dentist sharpish and get an emergency denture to look half-respectable. As somebody here says, it’s not easy being me!

Used the scaffolding to fix the guttering. Took it all off, new brackets, cleaned all the mud and moss from it, joints where I had used sealent, and brand new joints installed. All back together and checked. No leaks.is

Cleaned moss off the roof.

Then rearranged the garage to make room for the install tomorrow.


Cooked dinner, Salmon and spinach bake, but Mrs B has had to go babysit before eating it.
Elsie seemed fine today but has a rash. Hospital wanted to see her urgently, in case of meningitis. Going to be a long night
