So, who wants to help ... to flummox the cellar?

Some sorted, some I will leave until tomorrow, having made a Mistake, seemingly, with the attic switches.
All is well enough. Off to ring The Ma.

I so wish that Bowie had not done that stupid thing with his teeth (but, I prefer imperfection). The following made me laugh, nonetheless:

I have recently been reading the IET Wiring Regulations in support of an small electrical project. The vast majority of them really do seem to be “don’t be stupid” and “don’t make things harder than you have to for the next sparky”.

Yerss, Soo

My teeth aren’t, & never were a brilliant white, - not in the Fambly genes, & I had to insist that the 2 implants at the front were not made to look like white tombstones…

I commend to you a programme, now on iPlodder which followed 50 years worth of Parkinson interviews. There are some priceless moments on there

No Airing Nat yet, but I have learned that an small torch in me pocket in the house can be very useful…

The Candles are lit, & I do hope that the Ma is as ok as possible, although I recognise that, as 1 thing improves, another Bluddy Difficulty rears up

Big Hugs

These days I usually have a phone, but that doesn’t stop me carrying one when I go out.

(Many years ago I was in a pub when something went under the table, and everyone said “aha, I have a torch function on my phone”. I think the quickest to get it running was 30 seconds, and at least two people were stuck on “pay now or wait a minute” registration screens. This may be part of why I waited a while to get a smartphone…)

The pub near our last house had e power cut one year and a smart Alec had a huge torch that lasted for ten minutes

My Aladdin oil lamp gave better light and lasted for the duration of the power outage

We were promised thunder for tomorrow, but now we aren’t. We haven’t had thunder all year, despite the promises.

BBC suggest we might get thunder, or at least lightning, overnight tonight, and also tomorrow afternoon. I’ll believe this when I hear/see it.

I have an Oaf lying on me. Perhaps he thinks I need keeping warm, the hairy fool.
