    From the inside
  • A proper downpour here, last nights wind played havoc in the garden so I got a soaking sorting it out.
    WFW, may run later but if the rain persists it might be turbo time.

    Dreich grey claggy start to the day, with rain forecast. Insider tasks beckon. More garage fettling. Plus further study of the comprehensive assembly instructions for the new greenhouse, almost piece by piece detailed; given its planned location think I'll double down on the ground anchors, order some extras. It can get windy; pity turbines are so expensive.

    And it is getting towards turbo season, best get that set up as well.

    Morning. This time last week, I'd just landed in Mallorca.

    Turned out warm and sunny here again. A couple of hours chained to the laptop, now free for the day. Loafing is high on the agenda. Mini has found a friend, one of her school friends in fact, so no need to keep her amused.

    Sheltering in the cave as its been tipping down nearly all morning. Mind you, pretty busy today and got another 3 hours of back to back calls coming up :/ Mrs 666 busy helping the Ukrainian get a bank account sorted as she's been offered a job at a local hotel.

    I did see it the other day, probably one to try at home.
    I think throttling whoever was playing the same 4 bars on the hotel piano in the middle of the night might've been more effective.

    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Happy Birthday, by the way.

    [Watching 'The chase']

    Shorty: It's Lisbon.
    Me: Where's Lisbon?
    Shorty: [pointing to 11 O'clock] Iceland's here and [pointing to the middle] Lisbon is here and [pointing to 4 O'clock or some where in Egypt] Reykjavik is here.

    Made me giggle. Though obviously my Geography lessons during lockdown either didn't go in or she didn't pay attention or both.
