:lol:

 

I just answered the door to the plumber, after getting out of the bath, running around trying to find my dressing gown and in the process slipping flat on my back on the bathroom floor screaming and uttering a suitable bathroom expletive, which he had heard because the bathroom window is above the front door. He was very concerned for my welfare thinking that I had fallen down the stairs. He was already in my bad books I left a message on his answerphone about my non flushing downstairs loo on Friday and he hadn't got back to me. I called another plumber and left a message on his answerphone yesterday and he hasn't got back to me either. This morning's plumber is a neighbour, he only lives 4 doors away, but is very hard to get hold of, he once promised to come round to do a quick job and then completely forgot. He does at least do a good job once you get him here :roll:

 

I had already got out of the bath to answer the phone thinking it might be one of the plumbers about 5 minutes earlier, but it was Payment Protection Insurance ( had to edit this because on first posting I had a little brown chicken) :lol: call and I was so late having a bath because our postman seems to have stopped ringing the doorbell when she has a parcel and just puts a card through, so I have been waiting for her to come before getting washed.

 

Grrr what a morning, and is so dark it feels light nightime. :( I am ok but for feeling a bit shocked and having a very sore elbow where I clouted it on the door frame.

About 15 years ago I lost my wedding ring and engagement ring on a scout camp and resigned myself to never seeing them again. Or that's what I thought. Clearing out a drawer in desk and there they were right at the back. How that happened I've no idea but it's lovely to see them again.

 

What a lovely find :D

 

Did you pop them there for safe-keeping before you went?

It's one of those drawers that you hide things that you might as well throw away but think you should keep. I was often distracted back then so must have unthinkingly put them in there.

 

I can just about squeeze them on my ring finger but they were size O and I recently bought a P for that finger. They're too big for the little finger so I might just wrap them up and put them somewhere safe. I could just about wear them but I have a horror of rings being stuck on.

Well done for all the hard work Lewis.

 

Did anyone else see the moon this morning? A very bright full moon with Jupiter right beside it 8)

 

Oh, and I heard a cockerel yesterday morning at 5am... reckon that someone in the road that backs onto us has chickens, although why they think it's OK to keep a cock when the houses are all so close is another matter :roll: that will be mighty unpopular when it kicks off at 4am in the summer... so long as folks don't think it's mine!

Handed in my assignments this morning!

Collected my Bioethics from a couple weeks ago, I got 68 ...2 marks off a First :D

 

Just walked down the hill into town after my last ever Parasitology lecture and there were 100's of people on the High St singing carols for the light switch on... It's nearly Christmas! :D
