What have you done today thread?

[Felix]

Rain stopped play for work so went down to my bus and fitted the kitchen sink (Right)

[ZRX61]

Fired up the MIG & fixed an outdoor umbrella stand. Managed not to set the garage carpet on fire, but did install a few more holes in one of my Tshirts & did the "My foot is on fire!" dance when something glowing & red went into one of my boots... which I hadn't bothered to lace up.
Can't finish the job because we're out of black hammertone Rustoleum paint... maybe use brown instead for some contrast on the part.

Thursday night is music night......again
Cracking band tonight with a very fit bassist.
Only issue was their sound guy set them up for Wembley stadium, but they were playing a salle des fetes.

[ZRX61]

Had a knee xray a couple of weeks back. Got a call from the Dr today... The replacement gubbins is "showing signs of loosening"

well fuck.

[Wreckless Rat]

Passed my last test, the general skills test.... I'm now officially a pilot.

Excellent work. Now you just have to wait weeks for the bastards to send the licence through!

[ZRX61]

Laundry.
Later I will be dropping by the shop to pick up tonight's $1,250,000,000 winning lottery ticket (Yes, $1.25Billion, with a B)
Take home if you cash out & after taxes etc is a mere $394Million.

[Demannu]

Tough night down the local eaterie.
Cote de boeuf, magnifique!

I've not killed my wife. Yet.

I'm sure if I did the jury would downgrade it to man slaughter after hearing the evidence.

[ZRX61]

Jackpot is now $1,350,000,000 ($415,522,045 after taxes etc). The $1.35Billion is over 30 years of investing, the actual cash on hand is $659,500,000 (chump change...)
$659,500,000 minus taxes gives you the $415,522,045.

[ZRX61]

Well I just wasted $6.. Friday's jackpot is (currently) $1,550,000,000 ($477M after taxes etc)

Go on then....what did she do?

[Noggin]

Made three cheesecakes - a big one for a bbq later, a sensible sized one to take to work tomorrow and a mini one for me

And, some beef satay skewers for the bbq - going to take some of the satay sauce too incase anyone fancies trying that


Now just working out some crochet stitch translation (got a US pattern and they buggers have different stitches with the same name ) cos I want to make something for a friends little girl

Then off for a mooch around the car show

Changed her pronouns by the sound of it.

Spotted a likely gap in the rain and went to the village carnival. Quite a big bash for a not so big village. You wouldn't starve - options included fish n' chips, pizzas, burgers, crêpes and at least 2 other food wagons. WI doing eyebath sized cups of tea + cakes galore. Car show, dog show, booze tent, charity stalls and loads more. Quite impressed (with the turnout too). Then tonight there's a bar and local band (pretty good one too) in the biggest marquee.

Definitely punching above its weight is our little village.

[Mr. Dazzle]

Ate some deep fried battered Oreos.

Honestly wouldn't normally eat anything so American and Sickly, but at the same time food always piques my curiosity

Weirdly...they have a brownie like cake texture.

In the Hope Valley? We're quite a few miles south of there in the softy south east. Hope Valley's a nice area though, thought about moving there for a while.

Drove from London to Scarning in Norfolk for 7 nights away with family and hound. Comfortable cottage with lovely garden and space. Lots to do locally for walks and plenty of shops nearby in Dereham area for food. Had a pint of amber ale and relaxing now.
