Living Room Windows Open! 
One of the living room ones got badly stuck at about a foot open; a lot of hammering and prying later, we managed to get it shut againOriginally posted by DoctorStrangelove View PostYes, but will it close again?

That one’s going to be restricted to only opening about six inches from now on, but the other one is OK - well, they’re all a bit stiff, but that’s only to be expected after all this time
Glad it’s a warmish day, as I’m now basking in a gentle flow of fresh 14° air from the window

If I’d known he could fix it in five minutes with a hammer, screwdriver, and complete disregard for all known principles of safe ladder usage, I would have asked him to years ago

Went to Philpott's for lunch. Completely meh and massively overpriced. Went there for breakfast a few months ago and it was excellent. Simple solution: avoid lunch at Philpott's!!The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't existComment

Lunch: poached tomato and scrambled egg on Morrisons multiseeded toast (crust), beetroot sandwich, bramble jelly sandwich, 1.05 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Weather: grey, dark, dank, dreary, drizzly, curiously warm, sunless.
Leg: it's still there. The curious colours are fading, the gel makes trouser leg stick to leg, along with the sock.
Ho hum.When the fun stops, STOP.Comment
