Off down the dump with assorted crap & dead & dying stuff.
Including my first electric drill, purchased in 1978 and used to its death in about 2003ish.
It was a B&D and built to a standard that you don't see in chinese crap these days.
Also on its way is the B&D sander of the same vintage that went wrong and the sandpaper stayed still while the handle gave you vibration white finger.
And a cracked windscreen from a Dutton Phaeces, replaced when I got rid of the damn thing back in 1988. Oh glorious day.Last edited by zeitghost; 29 August 2017, 08:24.Comment

Lunch today is a wholemeal cob (or bap) with some kind of flavoured chicken bits that tagged along on a three-for-£7 deal at the petrol station M&S the other week, and have been lurking in the freezer
There's an air conditioning vent almost overhead which for some reason feels very cold todayComment

Spanish friends staying with us. She has gone shopping with The Wife (tm), he offered to cook paella for dinner tonight. Had 15 minutes between conf calls and went to grab some lunch. I knew there was a leftover BBQd sausages in the fridge. Went there, no sausage.
Turns out my Spanish friend had made a sausage casserole thing for us for lunch with the left over sausages and veg out of the garden
