Good morning everyone from under a cirrus ladened blue sky here in the dark and dangerous north. Whatever happened to that first line in Richard III, is it all being hogged daan saaaf? Wallpapergate is well on the way in one of the upstairs bedrooms and I can see the prospect of some paste being mixed today for replacement paper. All going splendidly and we have the new experience of a skip arriving on Thursday. Do we need to pipe it onto the drive. Always wary of new experiences in case it writes over some essential knowledge, like how to walk or blink. Or worse still, make koffy. Mrs Miggins tested negative this morning. Me - no.

Another spray and ink which needed a little bridge and a house or two. Have the best day that you can have, I really must make more koffy.

Thanks @ianpspurs - I have whey protein also - vanilla flavour - but I will be having avocado salad for brunch.

Enjoy the avocado salad. Brunch is very upmarket. Do you have Kitchen Supper as per Call Me Dave and Sam Cam? Vanilla whey protein has a nasty after taste but works a dream in a chocolate cake recipe we all adore - usually for my birthday, approx midsummer's day. I'm guessing the hideous taste of 90%+ chocolate and that "magically" cancel each other out. I've just been to the "Recycling Centre" What do they make out of the dog poo - very niche jewellery or clothing ?:arghh:

Brunch only because it’s far too late to call breakfast. Perhaps second breakfast but we are not Hobbits. Or elevenses but we don’t have a china tea set. I’m now going to put whey protein into my chia pudding and add a bit of cacau. Lot’s of potential energy in that dog poo. Take it all to the Malvern Hills or have a lamp in your garden. https://www.theguardian.com/environ...street-lamp-runs-on-dog-poo-bio-energy-waste-

Ah, yes. The Plains Indians used Buffalo Chips for fuel and incense. JKP isn't enthusiastic, prefers reed diffusers and other Woke (= costly) nonsense. We have a still boxed and wrapped in tissue paper, china tea set which was a wedding present unused in 37 years. 6th house now. Chia pudding? Do have my share Old Chap.

When I worked in Easter Africa - bio digesters were very popular ways of releasing potential energy - you can power an old car engine with a bio digester to generate electricity, grind grains and power tools - don’t know why we don’t do similar in the UK, just need to get the temperature right (oh, and something to start it all off). We used to build them with a couple of oil drums and an old car engine.

Morning all/

A different day today. LFT, then (if negative) lunch at an up-market restaurant with a dear friend. She is having her last outing before self-isolation prior to major surgery. The operation is due at a specialist London hospital in two weeks' time. She is so happy that it is going ahead at last. I could join her in eating some celebratory carbs, but no booze.

My minor detail in comparison. FBG 8.1 mmo/lt at 0645.

Have a great day.

5.2 this morning. Feeling a bit tired so Mr K suggested that I relax with another coffee while he takes the dogs out for their early morning walk. I didn't take much persuading.

Hi to all. Too dark here to see what kind of day it is weather wise but being winter it won't boil my bacon. There was a very blue sky yesterday which many would have billed and cooed over. Cute granddaughter early on, then gym, some form of LC food, football, bed and Swipey. Yadda, yadda, yadda. @True Blue hugs, prayers and best wishes for your friend. @gennepher thanks for sharing your art. @karen8967 your amazing run continues. @jjraak hugs, prayers and sincere wishes for rest and recovery - gently does it. @Krystyna23040 hugs and prayers for the pain from the sorrow and hurt of close family and friends. If you are out there @SlimLizzy hugs and prayers. Even if you can't stand on a corner in Wilmslow, Arizona, Take it Easy.

Good Morening Ladies and Gentlemen and all who worship the pillow and bed on these chilly mornings.
A little 5.1 this morning on that wayward, untrustworthy and down right deceitful meter.
Here in Tilehurst Towers breakfast has been consumed, tea is being drunk shortly to be followed by the elixir of life koffy and a lft test, sometimes you have to wonder how me and me’s manage with all this excitement in one morning. Plinky plonky lesson today, the scale of H#minor has proved to be a little difficult, but taking that well unknown Bristolian composer Fred Wedlocks advice just belt the keyboard with a lump of lead pipe and hey presto you end up with a broken keyboard.
Stay safe all and stay safe and virtual hugs where required.

Call it Boris and be done with it.:angelic: Fred Wedlock, The oldest swinger in town - keep yer keys out of the bowl mate. How does that all work with isolating anyhow? Is it all done via zoom? So, Big Dog's mates reckon the Pork Pie Plot will fizzle out. What these? They are not just Pork Pies, they're Keto pork pies. ;)
