Yeah right, you normally just blame autocorrect.

This time next week the clock in my car will be correct!

I thought it a bit strange when the clock in Hyundai jumped forward 1 hour last Sunday

It’s actually Tourette’s...

Starting to think on how and where we'll be able to meet up with children after April 12th - outdoors and for a picnic or two.

Just paid my subs for the coming year. My wife saw how much it was and...well...said that it was an awful lot of money (£1800). Well that's what it is around here for a decent members club - besides - and as I reminded her - I could have finished work on 1st March but decided to finish end March - and so my March salary has paid for my subs...

Just as well - she said rather threateningly...

Anyway - that's me sorted...

Another great service story for me.
Ordered a bench mortiser machine from Abbey Tools (via Amazon) and they mailed saying machines are in short supply so could be a week or so, no biggy - not in a rush.

But got a message today saying they got one yesterday and shipped it overnight so will be with me today. I didn't even opt for or pay for express delivery.

Between them and FFX, my workshop is going to be looking and functioning brilliantly.

Great afternoon. Sat watching a bowls match with a bottle of white wine. Retired to the terrace afterwards for nibbles... ah, Bisto!!

Just found out my golf mates have booked a day out at Dundonald Links to celebrate my 50th birthday in the summer.

Very chuffed, should be a great day out.

Seeing my name on BRS, meaning I'm going to be playing golf very soon.

Finding out one of Mrs Fundys best friends got the all clear from her specialist today having been fighting cancer all through the pandemic.

We have raised a glass to her and the docs who treated her

Just discovered that there is a sudden temperature soar next week - going to be around 20 degrees! This is unexpected. Usually when exiting a lockdown we get torrential rain... Absolutely cannot wait for my first round on Tuesday. Only downside, looks like the golf trousers I bought in lockdown won't be getting an outing for a long time.

Thanks for that, must be nice living down south in the tropical weather!

Updated forecast for Monday here is 45 mph wind and heavy rain

Reaching the heights of 10 degrees on Wednesday and Thursday but the wind is switching to the north so it will be bloody freezing

Looks like wind is from the north for quite a spell so it will stay dry but cold so wont need to worry about starting to cut my grass in the next couple of weeks

I guess the real test will be when I swing it next week
