some ghastly "energy" drink for 49p in Ampthill, everything else in the McColls was a rip off.

half hour or so later, just outside Stewartby there was a burger van in a layby on the old A421, cup of tea for 90p

I was out on my pedal bike.


I've not put any fuel in my Honda this year, the reserve is flashing away, so I rather expect my next exciting update will be petrol. So, I'll mention it now to save me from mentioning it when I do, m'kay?

A set of Young Guns golf clubs for my granddaughter in the hope that she loses interest in mine.
She does pretty well with a full size putter for a four year old though.

Is the license version specific?

We use Teamviewer at work & everytime there's a major update we have to get clients to download an older version of teamviewer to allow us on, whilst we wait 9 months for the license to be updated.


Not sure - I've only been using it for a couple of weeks.

Got the Aldi 20V cordless hammer drill thingy.

Replace my cheapy Black and decker thing that sometimes struggles to sink a screw into a piece of wood.

Saves me having to dig the SDS drill out when I want to hang some shelves on a wall.

Went to the worlds tiniest bike auto jumble this weekend.
I bought a Bultaco enamelled lapel badge for £3 and some clips for £1.90.

£4.90 of sheer excitement!

I used those before giving my bicycle away. They made me feel like I was going 40mph.

Internal doors, weighing ~30kg a piece. Done three of seven so getting my door hanging mojo back again. Must have been 20 years since I last hung one.

It's true what they say, you get more right wing as you get older.
As a youth I was dead* against it.

Nowadays, they don't make enough rope. Laughing

* pun intended.
