What are you going to get up to today?

[Pudsey Bear]

We're going to look at changing the car today, we have a 2024 MG3 Trophy + and very happy with it (apart from that damned nanny software), we're looking at getting a new or nearly new MG ZS, same running gear etc, but an SUV as we're stuggling to get in and out of this car, plus the boot is miniscule, and the lip is too high, the ZS has a massive boot, spilt fold seats and a lower lip, and a lot less of the piano black stuff.

Just watched Sisu for the second time, cracking film, much better on TV than a tablet.

I’ve been to see the Brighouse and Rastrick band. Absolutely fantastic!

Thanks for that Kev, I didnt know about the film. I love Sibelius, particularly "Oma Maa" for much the same reason.

I hope to visit Ainola in Järvenpää one day before I pop my clogs, but suspect it'll be a solo trip.

Today I am going to sample sweet ripe Pears in syrup, Vanilla Caramel, Cinnamon sweets and Almonds.

That is what is stated in the tasting notes for the bottle of 13 year old Chivas Regal Extra whisky I will be opening this evening.

Can't wait.

Be cheaper to go to a Ye Olde Sweet Shoppe.

Hope you wore something floral ... Did you see Petunia watching that man from Table 6 in the boarding house waving at her from the sea? [that definitely dates me - c.1964 Government public information cartoon about the dangers of sea swimming for those below the age of 65 ...]

Showoff.

I can do my right foot easily, but I need a grinder on my left foot.

I need the help of a professional toenail surgeon (Chiropodist) as I cannot bend down that far anymore.

I needed to use a Dremel on the sole of my foot to remove the scar tissue from a wound but cannot reach that anymore either.

I use a chemist's foot rasp to remove the hard skin that used to crack, and the podiatrist additionally recommended the incredible "Swedish formula CCS Foot Care Cream". If you can persuade 'someone close' to quickly rub it in every few days, it may well help you too.
