Noticed that there was a bit of noise from one of the windows in the office, ran my hand round the edge and I could feel a draft, so during my 10.30 call I put some new draft tape on it. Warming up now.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

The Wifetm lost the back of one of her earrings last week. It's by that brand that do the light blue boxes.
I searched online to buy replacements, saw them on eBay for £30-50, mostly shipping from the US. The I remembered that we are supposed to be passing through LHR T5 in a couple of weeks and they have a store in departures.

Yes, they do stock them.
In fact, they'll post them out.
I happily go to give them my credit card.
...oh no sir, it's free of charge.

Burning nicely.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Worked out why the news in the sidebar hasn't updated since 30 September. Just waiting to hear from admin if the underlying problem is because of something he's changed and, if so, whether he can change it back
