Went for a lovely long walk down the seafront (plod were asking everyone where they had travelled from and were sending many on their way) and then across the golf course, gazing longingly at the immaculate fairways and greens.

Sacked another window cleaner.

Another one who has invested over £30k in a van with water purifying equipment then think they can chuck the water via a brush in the general direction of the windows and its job done. We pay a lot extra to have the back of this place done as it gets the sea salt, yesterday they left it worse than when they started.

Today I'm trying to keeps the kids motivated to do their online lessons and I'm just starting to strip an electric fence energiser for my ex. It needs a bit of modification on wires.

There may be an obvious link between keeping the kids motivated and an electric shock device....
