Morning, crisp fresh morning to be enjoyed.
Yea, the Dutch must be laughing their heads off at usBeen watching sky news over here flooding looks bad over there every one ok and good morning
Morning all, off to see my dad. Sounds like he is comfortable which is good.
Mid-Morning All.
Have been up since 8 but had a call with a mate, then time with herself doing puzzles etc.
MIL (94) just rang to ask if (when we go shopping) we could get her some toothpaste.
Now, We have gone shopping for her on Tuesday, Thursday & Friday and it's only on Saturday she asks?
Wife says no, I'm not going shopping I will bring you some toothpaste when I come up today.
MIL says, "You are coming up?" (Wife always goes up on a Saturday to deliver the meat she got for her Ma on the Friday).
"Oh what day is it?" Silly old gal has been reading today's paper with the day/date emblazoned across the top but doesn't know what day it is?
I hope to goodness I die before I go Ga-ga....... Oh wait it's too late.

Re the jointing, with a new French build you make stage payments and have the right to withold the last payment for up to a year unless all the snagging is done properly. Our Parisian friends, who had theirs built by the same company, paid for it to be finished "Clés en main" i.e. keys in hand, and they had no problems with the paintwork. There is also the guarantee "décennal" i.e which lasts 10 years, and it was due to this that we managed to get it done properly in the end. I think they just thought they could get away with it with a pair of foreigners. And I do have to say this was really the only problem, apart from some of the floor tiling which didn't show a problem until well after 10 years.
As for the other, we will get a lot more into it next time when they can get a decent view! But yes diverticulitis is a real pain in the ass, in more ways than the obvious!
I'll tell W about the sigmoidoscope off ebay, ...........through the open window of the car, sitting in the driving seat, with the engine running!!!!
Actually just told her and she peeped herself laughing!

Just in case any of us are drawing their state pension, as if!
Are we all aware that in the not too distant future the govt intends to possibly look into your bank accounts without your say so?

DWP announces date it'll start checking bank accounts in crackdown
The government estimates that the proposals, announced in the King’s Speech, will save £300m a year by 2028-29
Preposterous!!
We've been driving through bits of it going to see the dottir on Marsh Lane!! Yup there is a LOT of it about in E Dorset, and Wilts. Hopefully the squiggles will be able to hide up trees etc, but dunno about the hedgepigs.
I'll have a look next time I go and dig a bit deeper. Should be able to find a manual / parts list online.

Obvs, and I doubt they'd go digging at randam, but as I said to W as soon as I heard about it, what scrote is going to be daft enough to put ill gotten gains in a abnk account once they know this is happening. They'll find some way to squirrel it away.
It'll be peeps who don't realise they have made an honest mistake who'll get caught.
