They have received a prestigious award from Duck Tape for Repair Excellence.

Good Morning.

I am so impressed with the impact wrench I have now ordered a Cordless Ratchet wrench.


I was going to get a bare bones one but after my discounts was only £15 cheaper and so for my £15 I get a spare smaller battery, a spare charger, some sockets (not needed) and a useful case.
I have an air ratchet wrench which I have found very useful in the past but is a real pain getting the air compressor out.

Afternoon.
Rain has now started which curtails my plans for a nice walk this afternoon.

Agreed rovi and if they stop the 25% council tax discount it will be a double whammy for pensioners who live alone, it will cost me £450 a year, it's like they have it in for older people, disgraceful actions by Labour

Listening to Rachel makes one angered. Anger makes one heated. There she's done her job. Ok we have always given the money to charity but the way the heating allowance has been cut and the fact that foreign aid 4.3 billion is spent on refugees just over a 1/4 of the total aid packages so fifteen or so billion in total. She wants to save 1.5 billions from the old people. Nice and warm now.

I was going to make a food pun but don't want to Egg you on

Rachel Reeves is on at midday, hopefully with some useful tips on how to stay warm this winter

Nothing beets a good food pun, but lettuce not get curried whey. There is too much at steak.

No eating in the bed is part of the answer to losing weight the others part is staying in bed. No rain here yet. Off shopping later so no doubt it will rain then.

[2gekko] 23/9/2024 07:59

We have had loads of rain and the forecast? Yep more rain

[jonjonck] 23/9/2024 07:24

Good Morning.
What is this rain you talk of? We seem to be avoiding the storms .... so far.

Morning

Yes the snacks can be a problem, well I went to bed early so am up before the birds and will be yawning by lunchtime, buying the treadmill has proved a good move with all this rain

[jonjonck] 22/9/2024 08:07

Good Morning.
You are doing ok, at least you are losing weight. I am slowly putting back on what I lost over the summer. Too many biscuits and comfort easting snacks!!

Morning

My diet plan does not allow for doughnuts, so far 5cms of the waist and 7 pounds off my weight, I am not exactlky slimmer of the year but going in the right direction

[jonjonck] 20/9/2024 17:23

I have received the divi today after all. So drinkies on me this evening but sadly no cake. I can offer you a cream doughnut.

[2gekko] 20/9/2024 15:09

Let them eat cake .. Marie Antionette

[jonjonck] 20/9/2024 13:40

That is a very good and valid point. If I had requested payment before noon then I would have received today and there would be no cake. Just as well we went shopping this morning as now there will be cake on Monday.

[2gekko] 20/9/2024 13:13

Monday it is then, at least rovi can bake one on Sunday in preparation

[jonjonck] 20/9/2024 12:21

Afternoon chaps.

Got £47.10 divi paid today -- will not be in bank until Monday so you will have to wait for more of rovi's expensive cake.
(But jonck, he is cheaper than Morrisons - Ed)

Morning all

I'm pleased not to work in an office now, there were always distractions like short skirts that held my gaze, very overcast here today

Luckily the only female glass ceiling not so invisible thinkers were in my working environment it manifested inDislike, hostility, or unjust behavior deriving from preconceived and unfounded opinions. They did not last long in my employ.

[2gekko] 19/9/2024 22:49

You have to be careful with invisible women, they always refer to the glass ceiling

[jonjonck] 19/9/2024 18:18

I dreamed I was invisible and I married an invisible woman
I'm not sure what we saw in each other.

[rovi70] 19/9/2024 16:36

It's weird, being the same age as old people.....I accidentally drank some invisible ink earlier.Now I'm in hospital waiting to be seen
