Well I'm flipping knackered!! 1.5 hours each way to a bbq of rehab inmates from when I was there. 6 hours of listening to and speaking French.

But lots of compliments on my ability to speak the language :D :D

Downside was when the mad bird turned the music up every now and then I struggled to understand whoever I was talking to with the loud background noise. But TBF, I think I've always had that issue in English too!! LOL

Very tired Noggin. Crashing out for an hour or so then will climb the steps to bed! LOL

Lots to do tomorrow to try and get organised for an incoming kitten - hopefully Tuesday. It seems the foster humans seem ok to let her go :obscene-drinkingcheers: :obscene-drinkingcheers:

Got the pool light reassembled with new spiffy LED bulb & rubber gasket after soaking the screws & tabs in Kroil overnight.

Started to fix the leaking valve for the swamp cooler. It only leaks when it's *on*
Discovered I didn't have a socket that fit it so had to go to the plumbing store & buy a set of tube wrenches
Come home
Remove valve
Go back to plumbing store to buy new valve
Come home again, fix new valve.
Turn on swamp cooler, ops check ok.
Turn off A/C
Reduce electric bill by about $500/month.. altho the AC only ran for 4 or 5 days, not an entire month.

Lifted a load of block paving and replaced it with new blocks :wtf:

Reason being, not enough of old stuff to infill the new patio area, old stuff being repurposed elsewhere.

Wait it wasn’t quite as bad as I thought! :D I suppose the food was £50-ish then bung on 3 bottles of wine and a good few pints over that time period and you’re soon there. Lovely afternoon though and I’ve been looking forward to a sunny afternoon in a beer garden, so it’s alll good. :thumbup:

Booked some train tickets.

Just need a hotel now, apparently the wife doesn't want to spend our anniversary in a Purple Palace.

Watched Vettel put AM on the podium in F1 & saw Hamilton make a complete arse of it. Maybe LH should focus on doing his job & stop his fake woke crap.
