    Morning all.



    Another sunny but cold morn has dawned.

    It was cold enough in here (17 deg C) yesterday evening for me to turn the electrick fire on for a while.

      It was bad enough putting poor old ZM down & I didn't intend to eat her.

      ZeitGrandFather couldn't off the chicken for lunch.

      ZeitGrandMother had no such problem.
      It's easier if you don't give them names (apparently).

      Also explains why Slaughterman became a trade. Pay someone else to do it for you while you look the other way.

        I hate it when that happens.

        Almost did myself in yesterday on the stone steps out the back.

        Only grabbing the handrail installed for ZM & ZP saved my bacon.

        As it were.

        Which has reminded me of the time I slid down the stairs while holding ZeitMog. She wasn't best pleased.

                Sorry.

                I just realised that it's a bit confusing.

                That'll be ZMg and ZMr from now on.

                If I remember.


                Mind you, it has crossed my mind that the last 4.5 years would have been different had I had ZMr put down instead of ZMg.

                At least with an extant ZMg I'd have had someone to cuddle for a bit longer.

                  Indeed.

                  ZeitOtherGrandFather was a butcher, but didn't do his own poleaxing so far as I'm aware.

                  It would have been a bit messy in Neath Market had he done so.

                    Well this box hasn't rebooted to tell me that the copy of Windoze 7 Pro (tm) isn't a valid copy.

                    Which is a definite plus.

                    In with the hoi polloi, and I think it's time to bugger off & do sommat useful.

                    Like paint things.



                    Byeeeee



                    Have I mentioned that I'm absofeckinglutely knackered?

                    Ho hum.
