    And the cat has just peed on the cleaner's rucksack!

    Cat got distressed recently - we think due to seagulls. We learned to hang all bags up.

    The cleaner has been on holiday for a few weeks so did not know...

      Morning denizens

      Lots of rain overnight, but it'd stopped by nine and the sun's just come out

      It'll be back this afternoon though, so I'd better do the shopping soon

          Shopping done!

          A few weeks ago, Sainsbury's stopped selling the own-brand Taste the Difference Fair-trade (how many adjectival phrases do they need?) coffee beans I liked, so I've had to make do with the only ones, out of the three varieties they did, that they still had in stock. This was enough of a shock to the system that I seriously considered going to the other big Sainsbury's, out of town on the opposite side of the city, to see if they still had any; but they'd vanished from the website too, so I feared they were gone forever

          Today: they're back! Slight problem: the packaging has been completely redesigned. As the ones I liked were "the ones in the pack with the orange spot colour", I had no idea which I wanted

          I took a punt on Kenyan, as their Kenyan tea has been in orange packaging since the 1980s, when my then-GF decreed, after extensive trials, that it was the best and thus the one we'd drink from then on. (I still do.)

          And a quick Google shows that I was right, as there are still plenty of images of the old packaging knocking around

            And with 5hrs to go on the contract, mild panic is setting in as suddenly undiscovered "features" now get reported for me to look into.

            And that's before they discover any features that I might already know about, but they don't.

                Is that the same song with the line "Boris Johnson 100 carrots"? (ask Alexa to translate it)

                  Home again home again jiggety jig.

                  Not quite raining sticks & old women but it's doing its best, like.

                  Unfortunately this will make the grass grow again which is never A Good Thing.

                  If I could be arsed I'd do the moss removal thing again but the very thought of 50 or so bags of moss is more than I can bear.
