Peggy's Mundane Thread

sunny here..hip hop on stereo

Bright sunshine here. Just off to do food shopping.

Sunny periods and windy today. I was going to go out on the Skerries tomorrow but the wind has put paid to that. Probably be more Plaice about in a couple of weeks anyway. Off to clean gravel which we saved in bags from a patio job ages ago and spread it around the herb garden by the house, mundane as feck.

Back from shopping and having a spot of lunch.

This afternoon fixing the dishwasher.

Had a coffee in Devonport park cafe this afternoon.

Todays itinerary is progressing as scheduled...

Chinese Grand Prix >> MOTD (from last night) >> QPR-Chelsea >> Manc derby >> The Masters >> Boston Timbers-Orlando (MLS).

A busy day, but one I'm fully committed too.

A tough ask Czar, I reckon you'll be flagging towards the end of the Masters bhey

Gravel all done, and looking good, having a bite to eat, visit friends quickly then off for a beer and hopefully see the otters again.

Dishwasher now running on a short wash and all ok.

Its amazing what you can do with the right parts and the right tools!

found a roll of sellotape by the fridge

Dinner scoffed, beer quaffed.

Listening to six music and having a cup of tea.

Dishwasher now refitted where it should be and had a full wash cycle done. No problems and no leaks!!

Back in the Wife's good books for a while!

just took a load of ivy of my mums wall

Tuna salad followed by either an Apricot or Strawberry Yoghurt - I just can't decide.

In other news. Achilles Tendonitis is playing up like a fecker again. makes running nigh-on impossible....Grrrrrrrr, FFS, double grrrrrrr.

Planted another two rows of spuds, Marfona and Pink Fir Apple, five rows in now.

Filled my brown bin with last autumns Hawthorn growth, to be emptied on Thursday.

Filled my black bin with a brown lid.....with grass cuttings plus shrub prunings.......problem is mine wont be emptied until Friday week....but it will compress down and maybe I'll be able to cut the grass again next week.

Laying in bed listen to the wife doing the house work, she done the school run, give me my breakfast, got the morning papers, when she finish the house work she can water the hanging baskets and wall planters.

just had a birthday bacon roll...cider time now

Just ordered a Kercher power washer from Argos. I'm on the way to collect it now. FFS, She wants all of the decking cleaned, FFS, it's my four days off now and she wants the decking scrubbed!! FFS.

Kercher or Bosch, Kercher or Bosch, That's the dilemma I've had for the last hour or so. You read the reviews on one site and the vast majority say Bosh is the better buy, go on a other site and the majority say's kercher's the better buy. In the end I went with kercher because of the 5 year guarantee.FFS.

It must wear you out making sure her "things to do" list isn't completed......she'll only sit down with a coffee and fritter her time away otherwise......
