In other news Mrs Eek completed her run last night in 46 minutes (which given the hills in Durham is a miracle)...
She only remembers being overtaken by Hello Kitty, a monk and Steve Cram (there probably was more but I have no details )..... She's pointed out she is raising money for some equipment for the disabled Brownies in her Brownie Unit so I better put the link here

Few spots of rain just then, but it was only because I was taking the rubbish out to the bin.
Seriously, the first few spots fell as I went out the back door, and now I'm back inside, it's stopped. How does it know?

The fridge bit of the ancient and utterly decrepit fridge-freezer isn't coping well with this warmth. I've just removed a load of stuff very much the consistency of snow from the plate in the back of the fridge compartment that does the cooling, but I don't know if it'll make much difference. Looks like that's another appliance that needs replacing sooner rather than later
I think I'll wait until the cooker is all sorted out first, though.Comment

I hope you hit as lucky on ebay as I did....

Now I'm off thinking about how to get the kitchen sorted out. There's two fridge freezers (one defunct) and a fridge to get rid of. Also, there's a bed settee from the living room that was here when I came, but which turns out not to be wanted by the landlord any more than by me, so that can go too.
Everything has to go out the door of the flat, along a little stretch of narrowish corridor, do a 180 round a corner that includes three steps, then down a flight of stairs; and then either out the front down the path to a road you can't park on (pedestrian crossing outside) or out the back, which is even more awkward (narrow alley and gate down the side of the old stable). Whether front or back, it has to end up on a side road several houses away, because of parking.
I think I'll hire one of those outfits which sends men with a van to take stuff away. I'll be lucky not to break my back if I try to shift it all myself
