Wednesday: Derek's Duck do for decrepit Ducks on anti-depressants and dole

Morning

Clear and sharp now that the cold easterlies are establishing.

Will await scaffolders and cough a lot, drink fluids and scoff.

Yesterday saw some basic chainsaw action.= which left me cream crackered.

Coffee...

    Morning all.

    What kinda title is that!?

    Derek's Duck or Derek Duck's Do?

    At hospital again! Surprise! Pre-op assessment. Maybe I'll have my gender reassigned during my barbie butt op?

    Coffee with witch sister later. She's arrived from Scotland. Shudders.


    Sometimes. Maybe. Possibly.

    Morning Peeps,

    Another day wfh although will head into the office for a change of scenery tomorrow. Shoulder starting to loosen up nicely already which is good, best keep doing that physio routine.

    The decorator is here for the week doing his stuff but I can keep well away from that in the cave. Time for another coffee.

  • Day on a boat in Fiordland, walking in LOTR natural film sets, kayak, dolphins, wine, beer and excellent food, what's not to like, raining now though! Apparantly this recharges the waterfalls.

    Morning

    Nice and bright here but it’s a bit nippy. I might hazard a ride later if it warms up. Later will be watching out for the nice black and white cat that came for a visit, seemed very friendly.

    Morning all. Currently ducking and diving like Derek with little success, my immediate muppet boss is off today so having to deal with the stupid he's agreed to or isn't around to deflect away.from me. 😫. Certainly a tad cooler today, had to scrape the screen this morning. Good luck with the witch sister photonic.

    Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    Just got back from my ride to find the bathroom fitters have turned the water off. So had a rather damp lunch, still today is turning out to be a day of drama. We got our monthly water bill from Yorkshire Water, they wanted £1200 instead of the usual £50. When contacted them. They said we must have a leak, so we pointed out we might notice that amount of water coming out some where also we might notice a drop in pressure especially in our third floor bathroom. They were reluctant to accept this, so we pointed out that 6 weeks ago YW did work to the metres which are on the pavement 30 metres from the house plus we have 3 letters from them saying the water would be going off on certain days for up to 4 hours.

    At this they said they would put the bill to usual amount and look in to it when they take the next reading.

    Exciting day which included a hair cut, purchase of Euros, and raising my eyebrows several times at idiots.

    Enjoying a glass or red whilst cooking.

    You are presuming that Derek is a Duck. Maybe Derek is eclectically Duckanthropic. Perhaps Derek needs to broaden his remit.

    It' is quite possible that no Ducks of that description turn up. So we may never know if Ducks do do's.
