Wottan adventure that was

Coffee annan cigarette are my treatments of choice ATM…

I planned to go on the 'bus, as we have a Noo service going straight to the Orsepiddle from ‘my’ 'bus stop for the price ovvan single fare, which is capped at £2 ATM.

I went out in good time, & caught the 'bus I wanted, & we went into town where the driver changed over, & said to the Noo one that the 'bus had had problems all morning.

Noo driver wouldn’t take any Noo fares, started it up, & it coughed & wheezed innan Mighty Manner.

Sigh.

He 'phoned for assistance, which would take approximately 20 minutes, or we could wait for the next one, which would have been around 15minutes.

I decided not to risk either, as I didn’t want to arrive at the last minute/late for my appointment, & got out & walked into the taxi office.

Taxi came in 5 minutes, & we got to the Orsepiddle in good time. I bought banana shallots, garlic & fresh peas from the fruit & vegetable stall outside, which wasn’t cheap, but is excellent quality.

Had my scan, & managed to get the 'bus back, & have been Flumping ever since.

The whole process took 2 hours, but at least summat has been achieved, & I have fresh peas… :wink:

Bacon butties made with bread that’s 17 hours old ready

How can it be 17 hours old, Twellsy?

Serious question.

I find that any ‘shaped’ bread, like plaits or rolls gets eaten very quickly cos of the HBC potential. Especially wiv Kerrygold butter.

The Senior Darlings eat Cornish butter, & that too is very good.

April June and November
All the rest have thirty one
Excepting February on its own
With 28 days alone
Except in leap year once in four
When February has one day more

How so? That matches what’s on the calendar on the wall here. February with twenty-eight or twenty-nine days, April, June, September and November with thirty days each, and the rest with thirty-one is what I learned too.
