At this rate I may have to drag the aircon out of the garage, assuming I can determine which particular pile of crap it's buried under.

Then again, it's mostly a waste of power.

And thankfully the temperature is now a balmy 27.9 deg. C.

And once the root canals are finally done, he can get started on whatever it was he was supposed to be starting on today

Stone me.

Sounds like my leaving the nerve die on its own before having it attended to might have been a goodish idea.

Must remember that in the unlikely event that it's on time, the 16:55 is retimed to 16:52 this week.

Only just managed to catch it yesterday.

Noticed last evening that there's a nice empty skip kindly provided by the builders next door.

I'm sure I can lend a hand filling it up a bit, like.

What a beautiful sight. You lucky beggar.

Just located "Mill Court", "Philip Court", and "Chapel Court" on the 1951 1:1250 OS map of Neath.

Dear me it was a salubrious place back in the day.

Some oik from Mill court shop some unfortunate woman through the thigh whilst attempting to off a seagull.

The seagull was ok.

I take it the castle is still there: Explore georeferenced maps - Map images - National Library of Scotland

It is.

And it's surrounded by scaffolding again, despite £300k being spent on it 20 years ago.

It's the little trees that do the damage.

Mill Court, Philip Court and Chapel court are were within 100 yards or so of the castle.

All demolished starting in the 30s and finally all that remains is Morrisons carpark.

Hope the tooth is behaving.

I'll have nightmares about that now.



One was about to watch "McLintock" with Duke Wayne but the transfer looked appalling and someone started singing over the titles so I ditched that and watched "The Lady Killers" with Alec Guinness and Peter Sellers instead.

It was quite funny in parts.

I see that I have the 2004 remake too, so that'll be watched shortly.

I also discovered the inevitable 2nd copy of "Black Company" in the pile.

However there are no less than 3 copies of "She wore a yellow ribbon" in a different pile.

Bit sore, but I daresay it'll settle down in a bit

It's the time of year when the evening sun shines directly into the kitchen. As a result, the sheet and duvet cover that I spread out on the clothes horse in there about three hours ago have already dried completely

Ribs and chips should soon fix that

Bit too much chewing required, sadly

Though maybe it needs the exercise?
