A Moroccan man I only just met told me I was "effortlessly lazy" and then we high-fived.
Same again tomorrow (well, steeper but no rucksack!)

Robin Pt.3
The little bollox is now feeding from my outstretched palm,back and forward filling up a fledged chick. I also made the error of leaving the small plastic bag containing the mealworms,sitting beside me and it didn't take long before Robin was right inside the bag.
I reckon the wee blurt was a risk taking motorcyclist in a previous.

I went to the dentist, he told me I'd need an Xray. He gave a me a prescription and a number to call.
I called them and got an appointment the next day. I went, got x-rayed and left with my results in a total of 15 minutes. €10.95 it cost. Some, if not all will be refunded.
I went back to the dentist. "I've got my x-ray, when can I see the dentist". 'There's a long wait. He won't be able to see you until next wednesday!!" (it's currently Thursday).

I have found a new best friend. I was chatting to my neighbours boyfriend at the weekend and it turns out he's the gaffer at the local recycling centre, I took some hardcore down there today, the till guy asked him to approve the charge and I got waved straight through.

A very good friend to have, work up to him letting you take stuff away.
P.S. AIUI they just stopped councils being able to charge for DIY waste.

I saw that article on the Beeb last night but there were no dates, it said the law was set in 2015 but councils use loopholes to carry on charging.cheb wrote: Thu Jun 22, 2023 5:42 pmMussels wrote: Thu Jun 22, 2023 4:47 pm I have found a new best friend.

I recently got charged c£500 to dispose of some plasterboard, just over a tonne in weight. Including the fat bastard discount, out of the van on the weigh in, stay in the van for the weigh out. At £400 per tonne that saved about £80, two trips, I'm not that fat.

In my fave bar, there's a group of locals who come down often and have a great time.
They order the 4 pint jugs of beer then crack open their cooly boxes full of sarnies and snacks.
Happiest folk in the world. It's their island and everyone smiles

I've decided no as she looks like someone in hair & makeup has tried very hard to make her look like a normie but she'll only go so far.
Also hosting a quiz show on channel 5 has ruined any respect I had for her.
Alice Roberts is a much easier choice.

I agree about Alice, but Lucy looks ok to me. At my age you cant be too fussy.
