Waiting around for a bloke to come and dredge me oil tank, outlet is blocked. Scrabble with me old lady neighbour later.

Otherwise, apart from me walky, just more fixing of me shed, got some new roof felt. What fun. Not.

Kink? Gordon Bennet, don't think I was having that sort of dream about him....

[xoggoth]

Actually sleep not too bad last night considering. Only bad thing was, I was having dreams about Ed Milliband.

[xoggoth]

Yeh, mine was stuck at about 27. Think I've said it before, but I find leaving windows open for hours before bed makes scarcely any difference to temperature at all, It doesn't make sense....

Reasonable attendance at arty thing this morning. Too hot for messing around in garden or walking, I'll go for me walky in the evening again.

Just looking at Sussex news, there's a man being sought for an 'indecent act' in Brighton. Oh dear, looks rather like me. It wasn't, honest!

[xoggoth]

Off to arty thing soon. Looks like few coming, would have cancelled if no showers had given me more advance warning.

There's a bloke opposite who spends much of his life just sitting in his front garden, really annoying as he sometimes seems to be staring up at my bedroom window. Maybe...

Just back from me son's place, he cooked a nice Father's Day Tea. Had a lounge on the patio earlier this afternoon, rather noisy - squealy kid 2 doors up, planes flying over from Gatwick, steam train chuffing through me village and whistling. Still, not as bad as me next door neighbour mowing his lawn...

Woodland volunteer thing this morning. Glad it's not sunny, at mo anyway.

[xoggoth]

Can be nice when people cock up. Once somebody managed to delete part of a simulation I had worked on, and I got my best paid contract recreating it.

Bit too many things today, group walk this morning, "book reading" thing afterwards and, as usual, I've hardly read anything, then Scrabble with old lady neighbour. At least I've finally got my shed fixed.

[xoggoth]

Been spending hours repairing my shed which had rotted in one corner. Hadn't noticed water was leaking in as behind shelving....

[xoggoth]

Volunteery thing at local nature reserve this morning. Probably good thing I went, else I'd have got up very late after grotty night's sleep. Don't think lying in bed helps.

Nowt on today and more lone days next few weeks, Loony Lady 1 is in US visiting her daughter and Not Loony Lady is on holiday in Norway. Walked home with nice lady neighbour after old fart history thing yesterday, nearly all women as usual. What do retired blokes do with their time?

[xoggoth]

Went to old neighbour's for Scrabble, she beat me, just, both times. Hope I'm as with it as she is when I get to her age....

[xoggoth]

Old arty farty thing this morning, karaoke this evening. Think mostly free day tomorrow but old neighbour just Whatsapped me about playing Scrabble at her dump.

Got me Windows 11 PC all set up, working great, don't think anything of significance left to do.

[xoggoth]

Took ghastly old ll2 to music thing yesterday. Abba tribute band was good.

Just doing boring stuff today, like fixing my shed door that wouldn't close due to wonkiness as result of subsidence. Lesson learned too late, if you get a new shed/greenhouse put it on a solid concrete floor.

[xoggoth]

Gawd! Knocked over my mug of coffee and it spilled onto an extension lead and triggered the RCD in the garage. Now I've got to go round setting all the clocks again.

Lone day today, loony lady 1 has got a hospital appt.

[xoggoth]

Mahjongy thing this morning. Have to hang around this afternoon for blokes coming to fix (I hope) my leaky conservatory roof.

Darned annoying, Outlook not updating on my new PC, don't fancy reset as took me ages yesterday to set it up, kept going round in circles, having to enter details...

[xoggoth]

Took ghastly old ll2 to a talk this afternoon, didn't stay myself - sounded boring. Finally got round to putting my Windows 11 PC into the office and using the 10 as a spare.

[xoggoth]

Had some really loud thundery bangs here.
