Bad Start To The Day

[barry1010]

I've done a full load of washing, forgot I had already put dishcloths, floorcloths etc in to the machine intending to do a boil wash and now everything smells of dishcloths.

On it goes again, minus cloths :(  

How's your morning?

Not quite as bad, but a bad case of brain-fade. 

Younger daughter + 2 kids + 2 dogs (glutton for punishment) has brought her caravan to Filey for a few days. We fixed up to visit for a picky lunch today & discussed who had what to offer.

I told her I had frozen Chinese Spring Rolls in the freezer to cook, mini Melton meat pies, smoked salmon canapes, cheese & salad.

This morning, walked dog, went to fetch Sat. paper, quick coffee and then packed up cooler box. When putting food on table daughter rummaged for Spring Rolls...... they were still in the freezer.... I'd completely forgotten.

We've had a lovely day anyway, thanks.  😊

I've got very fond memories of Filey and what was a small village nearby, Hunmanby, and of course Bempton cliffs.

I bet Hunmanby is a lot bigger these days.

You think you've got problems. On Wednesday I decided I would soak some cloths in bleach. I have a one and a half sink so put both plugs in put the bleach and cloths and and ran some water. Nipped out to do a bit of shopping locally and came back to find the kitchen flooded and full of steam. 😱 I'd left the taps running a little bit. Luckily we keep a load of old towels in the garage which soaked up a bit of it and a mop and bucket. Everything in the cupboards was soaked as well so had to be pulled out and dried. All in all took us a couple of hours to sort out.

Oh no!  At least it was lovely bleach and not filthy water :(  

We had a twin tub many years ago and the hose underneath split - all the water from the tub spurted out in seconds.  Wouldn't have been so bad had we not lived in an upstairs flat.   Thankfully we had insurance.

The positive - bet your floor was clean...it's the chlorite smell that I can't stand!

Better than your bedsheets smelling of old dishcloths :(

I had a massage booked for 9.30 this morning.  She didn't come.  Nor could I, not being able to find a replacement at short notice.

tut, tut, sandy - no little blue pills behind your 'emergency glass' to break into?

Barry, Hunmanby is still quite small, most building is infill, but having problems at the moment because both the greengrocer's and bakery have cloosed and are for sale.  The Co-op has a small store though.  I go through Hunmanby on my way to Filey and it houses the nearest chemist.

Did you know that William the Conqueror gifted the manor & lands of Hunmanby (named because they bred hunting hounds there) to his cousin Sir Gilbert de Gant?  I didn't ,until I started the research (lots and lots of it) formy 1/4-finished historical novel set in these parts.
