tuesday needs a tactical meteorite strike

'ning

seems that rain continues

ride, coffee, wfh, bubbly

exploration in the cellar has discovered exciting documents proving that the area is part of the house of burgundy, twinned with pimlico

    Morning, dry , dog walked, cycling early today.

    Passport to Pimlico they don’t make film like that anymore, thank goodness

    Have a good day
  • Morning woken ones, a day of bugger all except entertaining the kids. Might clean and lube "trigger" if it stops raining. No cellar to explore but might have a rummage in the shed.

    Ciao ragazzi

    Just about to have coffee, don't know what the weather is like as its pitch black outside. Thinking 'shake, walk the hound , weights sesh, wrap gifts, introduce Bambina to The Breakfast Club then hang out with Bambino.

    How much do you drink a week on average? 😃 Layman’s terms, I don’t understand units.

    Run runned, beautiful clear skies and loads of stars out. Cars weren't driving around like arseholes this morning either, might've been something to do with the mtb light I was using as a torch :naughty:

    Need to try and get hold of a really big ladder today to clean the gutters out while it's dry.

    Jeez, don’t fall before Christmas. What’s the surface like for the base of the ladder? Be careful.

    Last day of pretending to work before the joys of Covid dodging at St Georges hospital tomorrow with the boy, followed by gratuitous eating and drinking for 11 days.

    Either grass or gravel.
    Might give the slimy patio slabs a miss.

    I could do with getting someone responsible to hold the bottom of it but they're in short supply around here.

    Normally don’t drink Monday-Thursday 17:00, but as it’s Christmas I’m making more of an effort

    Piddling down and grey grey grey, again. Gym this morning, too clatty to enjoy a bike ride. Then better sort out some Christmas cards... how many posting days left...?

    Last push before Xmas.
    Absolutely knackered.
    Won't bore you with the details.
    Have a good 'un.

    Just get some long bamboo canes from the garden centre and gaffer tape them together. Tie a trowel on the end and wear goggles. Much safer than a ladder on wet grass in the run up to christmas during a global pandemic. Or ask the window cleaner to do it.

    CB suspect you need some proper shut eye. A knackered leader can't lead, delegate, rest, regroup and attack for the finish. Good luck.

    Use bungees and cable ties. All will be good.

    MF is now tired of Ultegra related shenanigans and is now going to go and do a weights sesh to make his perfect body even more so. He will win over TDKBOMB and she will be eternally satisfied and happy.

    Ladder shenanigans have been sacked off for today as my back's hurting and it's gone cloudy like it's going to rain soon.

    A drone with a bog-brush. Easy job.

    This probably won't work because of the way the gutters are but I might try it anyway for fun. I can always use the drone+bog brush to chase the neighbours' cats and dogs for one of those YouTube moments.

    A drone and an industrial vacuum cleaner with a mega long hose might work.

    I got hold from somewhere, don't recall, of a set of extension tubes with a U-bend at the end / top for a Stihl leafblower designed to blast air into gutters. I have never used them: there could be a design flaw somewhere, standing looking up at the 2nd storey guttering blasting out the debris, which is going to go where? Yours for a bargain price....

    Gym gymed. That was hard today. Potter about doing christmas prep stuff, and that will be about that.
