Lunch was a bacon bap (white) 
I haven't been busy today, as the chap who knows what he's doing and is supposed to be passing this wisdom on to me is off sick. I've been asking questions of a chap on the service we're supposed to be working with, and he's been responding a couple of hours later when he has time, and then I'm able to make a one or two line edit to some documentation. I've tried asking the rest of the team if they have anything I can help with, via Slack, and have received no response
In the meantime, I'd finally decided that having the washing machine and fridge from the old flat taking up most of my little storeroom downstairs was stupid, and I should find new homes for them. I checked Freecycle and there were people asking for both, so I let them know.
The woman asking for a washing machine started being a bit fussy; how do I know it still works after two years, can she have photos, and all that. I popped down at lunchtime and hauled everything out of there so I could take some photos, which turned out to be worth doing anyway as I've got the space more neatly organised now - things had originally just been shoved in there as and when I brought them over. Then it turned out you can't include photos in messages, so I had to upload them somewhere and send her a URL. No response to that yet; if she doesn't get back to me soon, there's somebody else posted wanting one this morning, who perhaps won't be such a fusspot
Meanwhile, the chap looking for a fridge was just "I can come at these times, do I need to bring help get it down any stairs" and so on. I'd checked it while I was down there and it needs a bit of a clean. So I've arranged for him to come and get it on Thursday evening, to give me time to spruce it up. Much less hassle
