Don't forget to put your clocks forward tonight BTW.

Thanks for the reminder.

Went for the messages at 8am, straight in and got most of what we needed. That was a relief I was dreading going, maybe the panic buying is slowing at last.
Got the mower out this afternoon and cut two of the three big lawns, it was a struggle as my fitness levels have dropped off since the pool closed. Hoping to get the 3rd one down tomorrow.

Three lawns, you need a sheep.

At the local Co-op for 0620 to discover that they are now not opening until 0700. Back for 0720 for the first shop of the week. Got all I needed except toilet rolls, but not desperate yet!

It's just a pity that junk mail is usually on glossy paper  ;D

I can pretty much copy and paste what I have don't each day for the last 3 weeks and for the next ? of weeks. Loads of grass cuttings and now the council not emptying our brown bins, but they still took my £30. Knowing our council they will give me a compost bin, and charge me £30 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Yes, they slide it all over the place, just like the old Izal paper did. ;D

Spent the morning chasing a mysterious missing package. Buyer reports not received and tracking shows it was delivered in entirely another part of USA. Had to refund buyer and open a case with US postal service so see what happened to item. Dont expect to get it back but this is a precurser to getting paperwork for a Royal Mail claim. Lots of form filling.

A few weeks ago a package sent to an address in the USA turned up in Beijing! Oh joy. It took another month to get to the correct customer. and that was before the present pandemic.


Postal services are not improving.
Rules are for the guidance of wise men and the blind obedience of fools.

My Raspberry Pi arrived from Amazon a day early yesterday. After a box opening and packaging disposal worthy of it being suspected Novichok and sanitising what I could which was just the case and and power supply I made a start on setting it up as my personal webserver. I'll probably carry on with that later. If there weren't the prospects of possibly months of confinement ahead I'd have got it all done and dusted yesterday.
So long and thanks for all the fish

I guess a truthful answer is 'not a lot' - just another day at the ranch!

Off for another Wuhan Roulette trip to Morrisons to collect my wife's prescription & do a bit of shopping so as not to waste the risk of having to go.
