    Pat E, thank you for your link, very useful.

  • Amazing and worrying.

    Yesterday I placed an order (car accessory) with Amazon at 13.40, this came with a Parcel Force tracking facility...which reads like so: Order placed 13.40, order collected 15.31 (Southampton) order loaded for delivery (Birmingham) 05.38 .....delivered to customer 09.45.

    I'm sure you'll agree, 19 hrs delivery (free btw) is pretty amazing. But oh dear, this is doing nothing for the demise of our high streets.

    1. Hi Rb, hope you've not got shingles, my dad had that, we had to get the doctor on Xmas day, keep my fingers crossed for you image

    Oooh Rb - Shingles isn't fun - I know - hope you get rid of it soon.   Don't overdo it!  I was told I'd got Shingles because I'd 'overdone things'. 

    Plumber has gone - drain unblocked and washbasin fully functioning.  Now all we have to do is find a matching replacement floor tile!  Plumber will come back tomorrow morning to service the boiler as he's gone off to an emergency call out. 

    I just phoned OH to let him know and discovered he's just been a hero - a colleague found a man in one of the storerooms, she told him to leave  - OH went a few moments later to check that he'd gone and found him in the office rummaging around - OH assumed an authorative tone and told him 'on yer bike and don't come back'.  image   Intruder said he was 'looking for a pen to write a phone number down'. image   OH said he looked like a junkie image    

    The boss is off with a migraine (she's just moved house and daughters have had A level and GCSE results this week), but when she's back they're going to have to review security.  There were break-ins at the GC and another business on the site earlier in the week. 


    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.





  • Fairy, what does that say about you then, think Verdun would be keen to chirp in?image

    A man that can and will iron is never to be sneezed at Bushman. image

    Flumpy, it's in the Dordogne and yes it is very hot, been in the garden for less than an hour weeding and have had to come in to cool down a bit. image

    Runny, do hope it's not shingles. image

    Right back to it, Charlie at summer camp all day today until 7:30pm so have to make the most of my free time. image

    Dove imageimage  It's also worrying when those sorts of businesses are being targeted more and more.

    RB - shingles image

    DD- I always behave well. Early to bed etc image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

    Absolutely jo  image

    You've done more than me - does watching the magpies poking about in the pots  at the back door count? image

    I'm off out shortly to get paint and milk. Must check I put the right one in my tea ...image

    Anyone need anything?
