The heading should be enough to warn you that this is not going to be a pleasant post, certainly not smelling of a bed of roses. Those who are tickle tummed should avoid. I had my first experience of...
I understand that due to lockdown my car's MOT will be extended for 6 months. My question is will that MOT be a full 12 month MOT or will the expiry date stay the same? My car is due for MOT in July,...
I have a Logitech Performance MX mouse which I treated myself to over 6 years ago - a bit expensive for a mouse. It has been great but no longer holds the charge despite new rechargeable batteries. It...
I thought that Saturday deliveries had been suspended except for parcels. The postman has just delivered a load of letters.
Today is Saturday, isn't it? I lose track of the days...
I thought I did mine regularly but it must have been a while. I took the back off and it was thick with dust. I knew it needed doing because it was getting hot and a bit noisy....
I badly scaled the back of my right hand three weeks ago. I have had to keep it covered because I kept knocking it or catching it. It is still 'soggy' and not healing. I have not used any kind of...

I have just seen an advert for a mattress that arrives in a box, rolled up! I never imagined such a thing. I'm a pocket sprung sort of chap (Vispring, thank you for asking) and cannot believe such a...
I use an immersion heater for hot water during the summer. This is operated by a manual timer that I have set for one hour during the night. The water gets very hot, hot enough to scald and to make...
Just reminiscing and remember sleeping on sheets with a seam up the middle because my mother would turn them when they were wearing thin in the middle. This meant cutting them in half lengthways and...
The middle aged Tesco delivery driver said, "Hello, young man" when I answered the door.
What has your defining moment for hitting middle age or old age?...
I have Economy 7 electricity and noticed a month ago that the clock was jammed. I kept daily records and I have had cheap rate electricity for only 19 days out of 30. It is three days since I last had...
