Friend put his through, failed, result was it needs a cat installing..(stand down Popeye, not THAT type of cat)
That's the one Dunelm. They are disgusting, so why did I eat them?They sell something that is a cross between a jaffa cake and a fig roll - disgusting - Can you make madeleines using almond flour - (don’t ask the French).
Oh no. Avoid the m***a. I don't think he noticed.good evening all
had a funny peculiar couple of days really, my network adapter for the computer stated to fail, dropping the wifi connection in ever decreasing time periods so had to be replaced
badly needed to get it done before Wednesday because mr gee's cousin who died three weeks ago was being cremated on Wednesday afternoon and, because of the covid regulations, the event was being put out via zoom.
Mum doesn't have internet (too new fangled, she's not even really sure about mobile phones), so we had to do the shopping then pick Mum and Katy up and bring them to our place to watch on my desktop computer. Could probably have linked to it on our tv but negotiating it's wifi interface is an art in itself
Mum was pretty disgusted and I have to say it was by far the worst humanist funeral I've ever attended, the 'celebrant' reminded me of a failing pub comedianA difficult experience in many ways.
Thursday was mr gee's dental appointment to get his temp filling replaced with a permanent one and then off to the big shed for volunteering. Car hand brake failed as we got home, you know that slight ping noise accompanying the wrist up under the armpit sensation
A more 'normal' day today thankfully
Hope your day is treating you well
@dunelm - I like your heron and bridge with it's oblivious human ornament
@ianpspurs - blood test results on PE sound good
@alf_Josiah - hope it has gone well for mrs J
@Krystyna23040 - I'm just very glad you are safe
@gennepher - Popeye looks good and cosy and that sunrise is spectacular, it was just uniformly gray here
art bit -
a sort of hybrid of watercolour and pen and wash, I believe it's called mixedmedianow

Yes, Mr K was worried sick.have to agree.
and the sad thing is many would be stopping to see you were ok and to offer help.
I'm always torn if i see someone needing what i think is hel
tho i do bite the bullet and offer anyway,
always take that first note of NO and move on asap.
been rebuffed a few times, had a fair few gracefully decline, with thanks
and some where i was of assistance in some way.
so, worth the risk, cos it helped some.
But yeah, you are right to be wary.
Not ideal, but a handheld alarm kept in the car MIGHT offer some small comfort.
(obv a baseball bat in boot, for JIC moments )
Nice it all worked out,
bet Mr K was worried sick...
take care.
I've never had a good humanist funeral experience. Sorry yours was not good. Hugs.good evening all

Thank you @gennepher - if only I could remember where it was.I like this series @dunelm
I can see myself wandering along the path and exploring...
Lens light worked it’s magic. Good story telling.Fbg 6.7
Late posting today because I had to go out, been asleep since when I got back.
I was out at dawn taking photos of the blinding dawn sun. But when I got back in, the photos were disappointing, and not what I saw. What I saw were all these radial lines emanating from the sun. The photo was wishy washy. So I put it through lens light app to get something like what I saw. And Popeye was asleep on my yellow duvet cover with clouds on it, so I have no idea what he was dreaming about...

Excellent recipe must try it on the grandkids - put the baking tray in the oven for 10 minutes to get really hot before carefully sliding on the pizza on it’s greaseproof paper - I use one of those mesh things instead of a baking tray - seems to work.A day off, spent doing ....nothing
But I did have a hankering for pizza.
And I did have a cauliflower & mozzeralla recipe.
So made a pepperoni pizza.
Didn't bother weighing everything out
Went with the that looks about right principle.
And has no idea what a 'nut bag" was...
No tittering at the back, please
So cut a corner off a freezer bag, and used that
All in all blooming simple
Ease of recipe...mmh I'd compare it to the time I made mug bread for simplicity.
And no pizza stone ??
And couldn't be A*** with making circles.
Just used greaseproof paper, and went full on "Square" shaped.
Perfect ...no.
Ended up after flipping over to get as crispy as possible, like a slightly undercooked pizza..
You know the type that flops and needs that few fingers at the end to get it safely to your mouth.
Cooked ....and verdict..
Delicious
Hadn't checked bloods, but will do the 2 hour marker or maybe the morning ones, realistically and next time..oh yes there WILL be a next time,
I'll measure properly, just to check for myself.
Recipe
Similar morning here but lots of sparrows at the feeders. Hello Popeye and friend.Fbg 6.8
it is a dull grey morning, still as the grave, not a breath of wind, no birds at the feeders...
Only one thing I want to do on a day like this is go back to sleep, but before I do here is Popeye and friend....

Maybe a meditation will perk me up...

Yes, I was shocked at just how long he had worked that day.Those local rescue vehicles work really hard @Krystyna23040
I was rescued by one of them instead of RAC.
I am glad you got home okay.
