Those of us who wear glasses all the time are kind of stuffed anyway as far as that one's concerned

That would have made for a good vox pop. "What are your emotions on this, the glorious occasion of Her Majesty's Platinum Jubilee?" "Whatevs mate, I'm just here for the ChinooksOriginally posted by ladymuck View PostI have been debating whether to trek over to Buck Pal to watch the flypast. The thought of mingling with the great unwashed fills me with horror so it's very unlikely I'll go. Shame as the noise of the various aircraft and, my fave, the chinooks is fabulous.

After the laundry was done and hung out, I ventured up to Waitrose on the high street and took the long walk home. Lots of people about. And a street closure for a party. So closed that even pedestrians weren't allowed to walk down it.Comment

It's cover for a gang of bank robbers digging a tunnel into the vault of a bank round the corner. Perfect opportunity for it on a four-day weekend with actual street parties being held all over the placeOriginally posted by ladymuck View PostAfter the laundry was done and hung out, I ventured up to Waitrose on the high street and took the long walk home.

Today I learnt how to stop Deliveroo cyclists mowing you down on the pavement. You need to walk around with 170cm gardening canes
Anyway they aren't needed until later this month but Wilko didn't have any shorter ones. Might be able to get shorter ones from the garden centre tomorrow.
Saw some random parties on my walk about. Most teens though were busy (window/Primani) shopping and some were asking each other why it was a bank holiday."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

This evening I have watched A Glitch in the Matrix (2021) which is essentially a discussion about whether we're living in a simulation but it's not done very well, sadly. The reviews on IMDb are pretty accurate (basement dwellers, fnar)Comment
