Van is always ready to roll mate.. We are having a week in Wales, then a week bumming round the midlands before going to the Lincoln show..
When we get home we will have a nice downstairs loo !

The genny is for a woman who has to use an oxygen machine at night .. The couple are like us and rarely use camp sites
Whereabouts in Wales? Can recommend Pembrokeshire, some lovely scenery and beaches down there.

Amongst other things took a late decision to take lunch in the excellent cafe at our local garden centre. While it was frustrating for us it was good to be turned away as they were at full Covid19 capacity. Until now the place has been more or less deserted.

Which isn't a coincidence as they sell desserts.

Cut my newly laid lawn for the first time. Most satisfying. Polished the Pan. Went to choose flooring and tiles for the new cloakroom suite. All in a good day. Watching the new telly box in my new lounge :)

Saw my next door neighbour collapse in the town centre and refuse ambulance assistance. Got him home in his disgustingly filthy 1993 Mercedes and tried to persuade him to accept medical assistance but he still refused. What really annoys me is that the 999 service will not apparently come out if patient refuses help even if everyone is telling them he needs help, including the brilliant off duty plod who helped out.

I'm sitting here wishing I had 'accidentally' kept his car keys as he really shouldn't be driving. Him and his good lady, who are actually lovely people, should have been shielding from the start of lockdown but just carried on as if nothing was happening.

It's not going to end well.

Could not tell you..
For once someone else has done all the organising, I will just be following on
The second week is down to me, but it will be just woman and me so we could end up anywhere.. Might even pop to see the Jaws shop !

Phoned Sky to ask why I cant get box sets on my sky box, 1hr 9 mins later and they are going to give me free of charge a q box, the reason it took do long was I didn't understand what the technician was saying.

Went to the gym at six for a leg session.

Worked from home and got another report finished.

Took my mum's obese cat to the vet. Excellent news, she's lost 0.75kg and only another 1.5kg to go.
