    Gosh.

    Was I wrong there then.

    The agent hasn't figured out how old I am yet.

    Just as well I took voluntary redundancy then, innit?

    Paid to feck off and no need to use the word "retired".

    Am I supposed to get a P45 these days?

    It's so long since I've done anything with this stuff I'm a tad out of date.

    In other news, lunch was a combination of poached tomato on toast alongside scrambled egg on toast.

    I think I put a bit too much milk in this last since it did seem a bit over watery, tasted ok though, which is down to the chili powder.

    The afternoon has been spent gardening, the two privet hedges are now a bit neater, and there's a shedload of tulipe to go down the dump tomorrow.

    It would have gone down this afternoon but I couldn't face the traffic at 16:15.

        I was reading about P45 and P60 earlier, to the effect that they'd been abolished.

        Turned out it was a .ie site.

        Dunno about the boomed thing, I don't count chickens before the egg's been laid.

        Currently cooking tea/dinner which is the carrots, onions and beef thing I do.

        <hiatus>

        Unusually enough, It Was Very Nice.

        Though I really did put A Lot of Chili Powder in it.

        <phew wot a scorcher>



        The stewed raspberries and gooseberries (golden) with custard was also Very Nice.

          Just finished installing the the gauge, compressor and piping for the new air suspension on the motorhome. I think the air bags are going to be installed by a garage (£100 CiH) as it looks like hard physical work and it is far too hot for that malarkey, besides they have a pit I only have a set of dodgy ramps. At least I have done the technical bit for them.

          Now to start thinking about teatime. I have a nice warm fresh baked loaf so maybe 3 slices with a plate of sardines in olive oil with a few queen olives on the side.
          Confusion is a natural state of being

              you should get a P45 soon, and a P60 after the tax year end.

              AFAIK

                      No, off to Scotland instead.

                      But I’ve got meetings during the normal working day tomorrow, then home on Wednesday evening.

                      Tomorrow night will be dinner in the Ardnamurchan followed by a sip or two in the Pot Still.
