hifi in bedroom
Rearranged the stereo in my bedroom. Not sure if it works yet, but in much neater in arrangement.
The cd turns ok, but no noise comes out yet. May take a rest before trying again.
I seem to remember that it was temperamental.

Next door
Went off on cycling holiday, by looks of it.
Front garden needs reconstruction .
M
more dusting
With the vacuum cleaner with small dusting brush. I did quite a lot of the easy surfaces around the bedroom. Pretty effective and easy, but it does take time. Effect is fantastic. A little everyday is probably the best bet.

Hoovered my bedroom carpet
At last I have started getting my bedroom shipshape. Just the carpet today, but also rearranging things, and putting things away. Feels much better.
M
hale storm
Wow. A big hail storm as I leave Tesco's to go back to Tricia at Mathew's. Quite a stopper.
Pretty cold as well.
Anyway it stops, and T and I get back home without problem.
M
the accident at maths conference
Clearly this was why I ended up in pembury hospital. No wonder I did not question why I was there.
:-)
M
Veg
We are a bit short on the veg for steaming.
Red cabbage, carrots, small potatos, brocholli.
M
Tell Mathew about Gareth.
two pairs of glasses
They must be around somewhere. Anyway it is forcing me tp clean and tidy things.
M
battering
The wisteria next door took a bit of a battering, by the looks of it. Windy and wet is not a good combination.
M
hoovering
Did my first bit of hoovering this norning. Stop before you get tired! Quite satisfying.

Painter
T thought she recognised the painter at the house with scaffolding, next one along from high beech. One of the three guys who painted Jonathon and Sue's house last year. I saw him up on the scaffolding and he waved to me, and I returned the gesture. Guess it is one of the guys, who I did get on with, after my altercation with J.
M
piri piri
Very nice dish from Waitrose. No idea what the spices are.
M
cleared a lot of boxes
Just gathering dust. Rescued a couple of cables.
Must hoover.
M
Japanese

Reciprical offering of help when needed

recommended mathew
Gareth seems to want to find a new hairdresser, so I recommended Mathew, and pointed out his little salon. Will be interesting to hear his views.
M
Michael
Seems to be moving from the south to the north, in particular the lake district. Probably the end of his fives career, and a loss for the Tonbridge turnout.
M
haircut
Went to Mathews, to get appointments and came away with a haircut.
T will have one 12 am on Thursday
M
Capsules
Got two lots if capsules, one decaf and one ordinary.
Clever but annotying protection on the tubes.
M
simon's bithday card
hair washing
Both hairs washed.
I realise that a good brush after washing is a good way of getting rid of the dead skin on the scalp. It may be still in the wet hair, but it willnow bruush out when dry.

Tricia's statins were there waiting for me at Paydens. Very smooth.
M
podback
Royal Mail collected the old two bags of capsules at lunch time as planned. No issues as far as I can see.
Full marks.

simplifying
I am taking out some of the add-ons that seem to clog up my latest and cheapest tablet.
I think this will help stop some of the annoying reloading of the screen apps.
M
Royal Mail
In ordering the collection of the two bags of nespresso capsules, I got completely messed up with needing to change an existing royal mail password.
Chaos ensued with time limits and character restrictions etc etc.
I think I have sorted it out.
But I am going to put the bags out now in the porch and pray.
It was much easier when it was not nespresso. Perhaps I should have pretended.
