Have a good day
WFH
Rest
No exertion planned for today.
Fuzzy this morning as I thought that opening a bottle of heavy red when I got was a good idea.
It was at the time, not so much now...
Maybe turbo when I get home.
Strifey is walking the hounds out in the Sticks so am enjoying some peace for now, just as well as work is quite busy. New watch arrived yesterday recorded delivery and Strifey only told me this morning - she asked what it was so I said 'probably just the bike parts I ordered'
Fettling old MTB and all good, just needs new brake pads and perhaps shorten the chain as it's a bit slack and jumpy.
Happy Friday. Busy day of wfh with various other interruptions. New windscreen fitted to the Panda, lunch was delivered by Just Eat paid for by work which was a bonus. Lad rang to say they are fully in isolation now as one of his housemates has tested +ve for wuflu. Not a problem as he has lots of work to do for uni so no chance of getting bored. It was bound to happen so maybe better sooner rather than later. Should run later. More computer based dullness before that.
Onwards and upwards...

Early finish. Pelting rain early afternoon, so that's me done. Catch up on the Giro in a bit.
Had planned to call in at 2nd client to do a bit more seasonal maintenance. Was in there last week and she warned me that as neighbours are getting their thatched roof re-ridged this week, there would be a scaffolding 'bridge' put over over her gateway and drive so might be awkward to get past. Awkward? The scaffolder numpties have blocked off her gate completely and I saw her car was inside. I can see some 'interesting' neighbourly conversations happening.
Send beer and food.

We had to traipse down to the canteen about 500m away and if you weren't in for breakfast by 8 you went hungry!
Anyway day off tomorrow playing with some 2X3 CLS myself but for far smaller project than Pinnos

Cleared the eaves storage space to make room for the outdoor sofa cushions - we've accepted that we won't be sitting out there again until 2021. Fook me, that was a job. I have several lumps 'pon ma heed, as there's not much head room. Also the sheer amount of shyyyyyyyytttttteeeeee that Mrs H3 collects is stupendous. No fewer than 5 duvets, none of which have seen the light of day since the loft conversion was finished in 2014. A dozen or more empty boxes, 4 air mattresses, an air bed, bags upon bags upon bags of clothes that again, have not been worn in 6 years. Boxes of bank statements and assorted (unopened) post from the early 00's. A knackered buggy (just in case someone wants it - who wants a fcuking knackered buggy?) All gone now.
Now there are the outdoor cushions, the Christmas decorations, the suitcases and the camping equipment. I can now also finally clear out the last few bits from storage e.g. my golf bats (though to be fair I haven't used them for 5 years and I should sell them) and stop having to pay Big Yellow every month.
Ma heed doesn't half nip though from all the contact with the beams.
Having a couple of vodkas for a change. With some cured saucisson from the posh deli up the village and some dill pickles from the same. A nip of voddie, a bite of sausage and the pickle to cleanse the palate. The 200 ml bottle says it has 7.6 units of alcohol, so I'm officially a binge drinker. I suppose that's the same as three 500 ml tins of 5% beer.
Nasssty main crossword in the times today. Still looking at the last few unsolved clues resentfully.
