I watched that. It could have been a lot worse. Klopp should be kicking there arses up and down Anfield for a few hours.

I made chicken soup with red cabbage (and other veg) over the weekend. The red cabbage turned the chicken purple so I won't be doing that again.

That's because they're a cheap, shoddy little outfit that use Artificial Stupidity and malgorithms. Quality platforms like this one use sapients that know about offal products. :thumbup:

I'm guessing a woodland crafts outfit dealing in pimps, benders and faggots wouldn't last long on Farceberk.

There's many a facebook group which has been shut down at the mention of Guy Gibson's dog, when the name is mentioned purely as the name of the dog with no other intention. Facebook will close itself down with the 'community standards' which will turn it into a narrow mind set.

Took a trip down to County Durham to the archery shop for some new arrows.

Not really an essential as my old set are still okayish but since when has that stopped anyone.

8 ACC (aluminium tube with carbon outer coating) now discontinued but they still had some my size.

Happy belated Christmas present to myself.

Discovered a fucking roof leak... during the middle of the chain of storms coming through.

Bit bizarre. Water is coming into the room by running along the top of the metal window frame & dripping onto the inner sill. However, there is a 2ft roof overhang above the window & we have concrete tile roof which appears undamaged.
I *think* there's something caught in the valley where two roofs meet & allowing water to get over the flashing in the valley. Tomorrow is supposed to be dry & I may be able to get up on the roof & remove a few tiles (could really use a 10-12ft step ladder about now).. or there's a leak further up the roof & the water is running along the underside of a rafter. There's no way to get access to the attic in that area with removing the AC & heater ducts. Bugger.

but tomorrow I have to take roomie to the Dr's as she has some awful lurgy.. & being the US, this means I have to take her to the Urgent Care that takes her insurance.. which means a 45 mile drive towards LA instead of just going to Urgent Care a mile from the house... or any of the dozens of other facilities in this town or the next.

Sounds like something, as you say, clogging the valley. Water backs up and gets under if the valley is tiled, usually made worse if the wind is driving in from a particular direction. Basically the water gets pushed uphill on a system designed for it to go downhill. Once inside it runs downhill again and appears at the house wall/window/ceiling edge.

(Been there, got the T-shirt as a result of moss on part of a roof under a tree canopy).

Took the Tiger for its MOT and sat in the cafe, like an expectant father, nursing a latte...

I am now the proud parent of a 12 month MOT with no advisories. MOT and bike are doing well.
