Whatever comes to mind I can’t think of a category for… or can’t be faffed making one for.
Indeed… a day when nothing is exactly going ‘wrong’ but isn’t going according to plan either. By now I should be at the gym well into my daily trek and perspiring with the extended effort. As it is I’m sitting at home (again) in front of the computer with yet another cup of delicious liquorice … More It's just one of those days…
Whenever I hear someone say “It’s cold out”, I’m reminded of Eric Morecambe and his comeback line “Well put it away then!!” It’s so hard to believe he died way back in 1984!! Not that it had anything to do with the topic of course, it seemed like a good introduction. What I really wanted, … More It's cold out!
It’s been a very long day but we’re home at last. Too late to work on the site, too tired to spit. Well fed after the leg of lamb… but so tired I just need to sleep. 🙂 Did I mention the leg weighed 3.5 kilos? Only cost $3.99 a kilo too. Good value we … More Home at last.
Yup… whatever it was I was going to write was something important. Unfortunately that’s the only thing I can remember about it. If it ever comes back to me I’ll let you know!! 😀
Another day dawns… or did several hours ago. The chaos yesterday is forgotten… except that everyone in NSW has to continually check whatever clocks they use in case they are computer controlled and think Daylight Saving has ended. Here it ends next week, but nobody told the computers! 🙂 Anyway, I digress as usual. Was … More Another day…
Not a lot happening here today. The kids are away, the youngest still at a sleepover, and the eldest to a friends party. The wife is working trying to catch up on the work she missed whilst home with the sore back… and I’m pottering about in the garage trying to find some floor space. … More Quiet ol' day today.
The old man sends me cuttings from the hard copy media about this and that. Mostly they are informational and useful, but occasionally they are also quite amusing. One such arrived a little while ago and I reprint it here… for reasons of which, I’m sure most of you will be aware. I can’t tell … More Oh Crap!
This morning I received a long ‘essay’ via a third party. The request was that I print a ‘rebuttal’ by the relatives we told would have to leave after they’d lived here rent free for four months. So I read it… and re-read it with a growing sense of incredulity which rapidly turned into anger … More End of the line.
I’m not allowed chocolate according to my diet sheet but I doubt this will stop me having *some* of that black seductive 70% cocoa butter variety made by Lindt. I like ‘dark chocolate’ and think maybe the odd piece of two won’t hurt much. Kids love chocolate of course and the ‘Easter Bunny’ regularly leaves … More Soon be Easter – let's have some eggs.
Seems I’m not the only one to have been attracted by the work of the Golden Orb spider. This article from the Sydney Morning Herald talks about the frantic activity the spiders are undertaking now the weather has improved. On a theme, and off the subject of the post, I almost ran over a possum … More Arachnids playing possum?
