    Home, and weekend!

    Not too bad a run back, despite a tractor causing all the lorries to overtake on the first stretch of the A14, and a huge crane-lorry thing doing the same (though to less effect because of the additional lane) on the home stretch of the M1

      Went to the supermarket earlier and brought spaghetti and sausages in a tin.

      Never had it before - don't know when I will be bothered to indulge.

      Now need to go and do some exercise if it isn't cancelled....

        Zeity has just spent about half an hour looking for a drill.

        Obviously easily overlooked.

        I found it eventually.

          I got a hankering for steak on the way home. Luckily there was one ribeye left in the freezer, so that's just had a quick spin on defrost mode in the microwave, and is finishing off its thawing.

          And beer has been obtained from Sainsbury's Local.

          So once I've sorted out the recycling ready to put the bin out for tomorrow, I'm all set for the evening

            Since I can't find out where the buried cables are routed, the hole (117mm) for the cooker hood is going to be offset.

            Which will look a bit odd, but there you go.

            Apparently someone is climbing a tree on "The Archers".

            No good shall come of this, just remember what happened to Nigel.

              That got me a lot of Archers fans as Twitter followers, thanks to https://twitter.com/NickFitz/statuses/21669979644493824 and https://twitter.com/NickFitz/statuses/21684659586867200

                Exercise done. New hyper instructor who reminds me of someone I know. Anyway all the guys were panting regardless of age. Oddly the ones around her actual age didn't bother talking to her but the olde and younger guys did. (They pant after the person I know as well and the same tends to happen with guys as well.)

                Visited a supermarket nice and sweaty afterwards.

                Ate a peanut butter sandwich and had a glass of wine.

                I have an Amazon Panty voucher for free delivery but there is nothing to buy...

                  Steak and chips for tea, as foretold

                  Now having a little rest to digest before taking the recycling down to the yard and putting the bin out.

                    I can buy beer with my voucher...

                      have an earlier model of that, its great. We took up the parquet in the hall (all 15M2 of it) using a spade bit in 3 hours with it. Drilled plenty of concrete and split paving slabs.
