No, but morning sunshine has turned into steady afternoon rain.
Do you find it particularly depressing being driven indoors by the rain just when you have settled down in the garden. |

Definitely
![]() ![]() Years ago I would get all ready to soak in the sunshine then as soon as I lay on the grass in the right direction etc etc etc with everything I needed - close to hand then within moments --- --- along came the huge clouds out of nowhereand the chilly unbearable weather and no evidence that the sun would come back any time soon & shivering and searching the skies for a glimmer of sunshine was futile Been overcast here all day and just now it looks like we may get a bit of rain soon Do you sort of shop >>>>> for one or two days at a time or do you mostly stock up on food etc pretty much to last for a full week ?? |

For a couple of days at a time.
Now bright sun here but windy...a gust slammed my front door shut and now the mechanism won't turn, can't open it from outside or in! Luckily the back door was open as it always is when I am home. Thought about taking the handle off, but as I rent, I guess I had better wait til the Landlord comes to have a look. I can get in and out the back way, but it slammed one of my cotton eco shopping bags in the door which I'd hung on the handle ready to go back in the car! Ever been locked out? Once when Mrs Teapot came to stay we got locked out just as night was falling...which where I live means TOTAL DARKNESS....and we had to totter down the hill by the light of our phones to the Landlord's farmhouse for a spare set of keys!!!

Luckily I have not been locked out
But ....... Not too long ago I got home and my front door key was missing from my keyring ![]() I was shocked that it had come off and thought of all the places I may have lost it earlier that day I searched the floor of the car and thought of all the places I had been that day with plans to return to each place ASAP I then went over the road to get the spare key that I left with my neighbour at least 10 years ago The Door key is also sentimental Later that evening I had another rummage in the car and YAY - I found the house key stuck deep down in between the front car seats near the hand brake goodness knows how it came off and ended up down there -Luckily it was not lost forever - on some long walk in the long grass etc I have been doing a sort out in the utility shelving which is actually a tall Ikea Billy style wooden bookcase in the kitchen today Have you done many chores today ?? |

Today I have....ironed two tops that have been sat there for ages too creased to wear, been shopping, got tomorrow's cheap train tickets out of the machine at the station, cut all the lawn edges with shears and strimmed the drive and front lawn areas. And the cat work of course. I fit that around the important jobs of gardening etc
![]() Landlady has been, agrees the mechanism is bust on the front door...so I will use the back door for the time being. Their record for fixing stuff isn't good ..... I will have to shout to callers out of the front windows!! I will make an asparagus frittata for dinner later...what do you have planned for dinner? |

Jarlsberg
[ We got a very heavy downpour about 20 minutes ago - and it is still raining but slightly less heavy at the moment ] Do you like spicy hot cheeses such as Red hot Dutch - or Mexicana ?? |

I've never really cared for them, although I love spicy things. Spicy cheese somehow does not work

According to Google, a Snozzcumber is a fictional foodstuff in The BFG.
What's your favourite Roald Dahl book? |

Not free, the popcorn is a tenner a very small box and you'd need a second mortgage for the ice cream

Could actually be a reference to the original Coke which did contain cocaine.

Iron is iron is iron. Plain and boring. Steel is endlessly variable: mild steel, austenitic stainless steel, weathering steel, cutlery steel, high strength steel, maraging steel etc, etc, etc. So it's gotta be steel.
What are your views on copper? |
