To be fair I can understand anyone who dislikes milk. I try to imagine the first person 

who ever played with a cows underparts , what the hell did he/she  think  they were doing ?

Even more scarier ,once the white stuff started spurting out, they thought to themselves

I'm going to drink it  

I also find myself confused every time  I open a can of Evaporated Milk....

There is always milk  in it.  Why ?? 

Are dry martini and London dry gin powders?🤔

Civil Servants who would need to manage this sort of change?  Nothing whatever to do with reluctant Civil Servants - entirely to do with government policy, and the fact that there are always greater priorities.  A lot of opposition too in the past from Scottish farmers.

 

There was a trial of course between 1968 and 1971 but MPs voted to end it after publication of some very iffy accident figures.

 

I suspect that if we had a vote on most people would prefer British Summer Time all year round, but it's just a guess.

You don't believe that the Sir Humphries hide these issues from their ministers then Harry? 

I guess when you were working the senior man made all the decisions, makes one wonder why they pay big bucks to all these underlings.🤣

Where is everyone this morning?.

It is currently 8°C,sunny but the ground is wet from overnight rain.

Pauline is working from home downstairs so I am ringing a few customers as well as watching Wheeler Dealers on TV.

The snow and ice have gone now so we will probably go out for a walk later this afternoon.

Fair morning here, not as bright as yesterday but mild.

[kalos]

The sun is having a good go at burning the clouds back this morning 10.c

so the weather is a hell of a lot better to last weeks for us .

Doesn't time fly ? Pancake day by now ,it's just creped up on us this year.

I'm not sure what we're having today, the Mrs doesn't seem in a rush to make

any .It's not like were in a race to make any either and if we were that would  be 

a pancake race , in lockdown , running around the house with a pancake- really !

What would the neighbours think ?  I think we will stick with Beans on Toast ,

you know where you are with them . Have a nice day & stay safe everyone .

I’m busy watching tennis graham and watching all the winter championships snow boarding and down hill skiing etc and last night watching some netball tournaments, got a bit fed up watching films , I enjoy my sports gives me a little inspiration to be fit myself but a little glued to the sofa at moment 😂so watching Djokovic playing. It’s wet here today not raining yet but yesterday was quite nice and warm down here , but seriously lacking in snow so I get my fix watching the skiing 😊have a good day everyone

Waiting for the engineer coming to do the boiler service ...

Oh the excitement - somebody inside the house!

Fairly bright here in Stoke.  I just made a food run to M&S and on the way dropped a gift for my nephew's new baby and a little gift for the big sister. I left the gifts on the doorstep and ran but he had seen me getting out of the car so opened the door and called me back. His wife brought the baby to the door so that I could see him, gorgeous.

Glad you got to see your new baby today josy

It's brighter here too, no sun but brighter after the rain we had overnight.

I've been making cards this morning as have some birthdays coming up, but just stopped for a coffee. 

Hope everyone enjoys their day, whatever it may hold.

Quite a few are on the cancellation thread I think, just hoping and waiting.  Isn't that a song title? Oh well never mind. 

A lovely day here at the moment, hazy sunshine and a pleasant 10c, but still not one daffodil to be found in the garden🤔

On a happier note, my friend could be out of hospital this week. Still no Covid symptoms but they won't treat the stone until she's clear. 

So not a bad day all round, except for the case of the 'Disappearing Daffodils'🔎

Pleased about your friend getting better Avril and it would be good if they could sort the stone before she leaves hospital to save having to go back in.

Graham.

That would mean her staying in hospital longer until she has a clear Covid test. She would be more comfortable and happy at home where she can see her family, if only on zoom.

Was sunny earlier, now heavy drizzle, freezer engineer just left, so now waiting for temperature to drop so we can move stuff back from other freezer, which is rammed full.  Cleaned area where engineer had been with the industrial strength anti viral spray my brother gave us. 
 

Plan to do nothing for rest of day as a bit achy after yesterday’s jab, I will read my book on the East India Company, my wife is doing her lace making. Will probably watch TV this after I have the program on Stonehenge from last week to watch.

That’s v good news

He will be far enough from his Covid infection to still have the jab, won’t he?  I don’t remember what the advice is on the gap to leave

I believe it is 1 month gap between covid19 and the earliest you can get the vaccine.
