That is me to a T!
Sadly wifey has other ideas!:(:(:(:(:(
 
Morning All :D
A bit misty here.
Uneasy snarly-arly silence here at clarke towers.
50 lines. I must not do exactly as I said I will do to cook the steak on time and perfect.
Someone else jumped the gun and realised they were going to over-cook the dauphenoise spuds and started yelling at me. Words were said.
We are not friends.
What it was really all about was .... I told her that her dragging a wet sponge all over both cars because they were covered in Sahara sand was the worst thing she could have done to the paintwork and a hose would have been better and why didn't she ask first?
So she was looking for a reason to have a go.
Wimmins. Can't live with them, can't kill 'em. ;)

Just for info in case anyone else cooks their Dauphinoise "early".
All you need to do is cover them in tinfoil and keep them in a low oven.
They were one of the signature dishes in the hotel I worked in, we cooked them before the beginning of service and kept them there till the end of service. Everyone got a portion. First sitting was at 7:30 pm second was at 9:00 pm so nae bother at all!;)

Hope the sand scratches buff out!:)
 
I'm not sure if you understood what the link i posted is. It's the only place you can get yer tax record history from. It's a gov hmrc web site. No apps or fuss. The info it not on other web sites. It's the only web site to go to to see yer tax history and what yer paid.

To register yer get asked questions based on yer financial records held. As an employee mine are limited to employment. If yer on benefits, pensions etc then the questions may relate to that. The questions are there to check you're the person who matches the records. Once in you get a password and register yer email address. They will email a notification if anything changes on yer account.
Thanks mate.
just checked and https://www.gov.uk/log-in-register-hmrc-online-services
is the exact one that i had already clicked on and thus i do now have codes for the gateway etc.
But thanks for the heads up as to all the things one can find there..
I will search around in there to see what i can find!

Well it has been an eventful day so far.
We were woken up by second daughter, the one with Covid, on the phone to say her ma -in law has died.
Her husband was not close to her and is not close to either his dad or his bro.
His dad simply announced "Your mother's dead" no detail, then started giving him a bollocking so he hung up. nothing new there!
Daughter's Covid is going reasonably OK, although she developed a throat infection, which is being treated with antibiotics.

Then realised the door with the gap actually hasn't got a gap! "someone" hadn't closed the door properly!
So apologetic email to door company!

Just about to put the joint in the oven.
Have lovely rest of Sunday!

LOL... is exactly what I told her to do, to prevent it drying out.
But shouting at me was a better use of her time & energy apparently.
As I say, this was all nothing to do with the food really, it was all to do with her feeling guilty/not being praised for wiping Sahara sand all over my paintwork, and her not thinking about it before doing it. ;)
 
...that my fingey hurts :oops:

I took a lump out of the index-finger on my right hand just close to the joint at the fingertip on the inside edge.
Bleeds profusely and all normal finger movement/operation just breaks any "scabbing" attempts.
Of all things to do it on it was a stirrup type track pump. I managed to get this little bit of skin pinched completely off while pumping up my trike tyres in prep for a ride tomorrow. :(
Bugger, Bugger, Bugger!
 
Well what a day. Mrs Doriz (under supervision) made a saw horse out of some wood scraps. Circular saws, cordless drills etc smashed it - I processed so free wood anorl. Now she’s baked a batch of Welsh cakes, so lucky.
Was always a test my mate the builder/chippy used to give any lad who turned up for a job on site!
You can put her out to work now!!!
AND the Welsh cakes!
Lucky you!
What days off does she get!;)
