You know when Autumn has arrived, when....

.... the struts can no longer hold the tailgate up, and it falls down on your head. They were on their way out a few years ago, but the warmer weather gave them an extended lease of life.  :-[

The good news is that a new pair will cost you less than £20.

Nooooo!  The law is November.

Put your BBC voice on and tell her is causing climate change. Then convince her this global warming is real, and thus artificial heating is not needed.

Heating?


Why, when the temperature is now at a comfortable level ALL DAY? And will be for another 6 weeks or so. Then it will be time to add or remove things like jumpers and coats as necessary.

For the first time ever , its me who has been putting the eating on first this year. Its due to the fact that the baby Tortoise needs a bit of heat in the mornings before it can start to move around.  ::) :-[ ;D

I do hope it's a real baby tortoise, and not a euphemism for something ghastly......

Trying to explain to a woman, that putting a jumper on to keep warm,in the house is correct, have obviously never tried having that conversation... Standard answer is, jumpers are for outside, and what's the point of having heating if it's not switched on when it's cold....  Answer yes dear.

Surprisingly they don't have to self isolate , they were staying in Olu Deniz and they had their temperature checked everywhere they went , got into Newcastle airport and they weren't checked once , everyone just went on their merry way , bat flu or not  :o

Let's not forget the reaction you get when you suggest that putting on your thermal underwear, two fleeces, winter coat and a scarf in September when the temperature changes from 20° to 12° overnight is going to make actual winter temperatures really uncomfortable. We all know the reaction; a look that has killed in the past, the statement that you're a hateful arsehole completely lacking in understanding, reason, empathy and compassion, and that you should piss off. While wearing the T-shirt. ;D

Oh it real. Its cost me a small bloody fortune in the 4 months its been here.  ::)  Strangely though, its a really endearing little thing, which has greatly surprised me. They require a great deal more looking after than people imagine though.
