You can always count on your friends inside your phone to have your back 😘😘😘😘

Just done c0vid tests on me and Dd1, I thought mine was clear but there's a ghost line and Dd1 has a slightly more there ghost line but deffo on its way out.

Dd2 keeps saying I'm "acting fine" and "you look fine", decades of being ill and hiding it love.

I’ll throw a song on the jukebox, feel free to use the remaining tokens on anything you deem appropriate 😂

Good morning all, a bit of a grey day here.

Thank you for the cuppa Lalli.

That melon sounds interesting, might have to see if our M&S has it next time I am down there, not sure if I will be willing to pay the price though lol.

Off out working today.

Was intending to get out on my bike yesterday but I had to check the tyres first, OH had just replaced a tyre for me, and I noticed, same as a thousand times before, that the garage door needed cleaning. The difference was one of the neighbours had actually had theirs replaced just a couple of weeks ago, and now ours did not look quite so good compared to the rest! Thought I would give it a quick clean before I went out. Problem is it was not a "quick" clean, consequently I did not get out. Still, there is always tomorrow!

Can you not get a home delivery? I hate going shopping. The only shop I'm comfortable in is the company shop haha. Me a dd went on Monday they had fill a paper bag with sweet potatoes for £1.25 I got 6 huge ones.

Good Morning

Cooler today but fine

I done a wash and its dried in dryer

Decorator here wont be as noisy today sander is by hand a piece of sandpaper

Found out yesterday that a Greggs outlet opened in town a couple of shops away from one of the two Gregg shops in town

Next door told me and i got given 2 donuts must have opened in last couple weeks wasnt there when i last walked that way,

Hugs to those who want one or need one and enjoy your day xx

yeah i could but the energy it takes me to order food seems far greater than just going to the supermarket, i dont know why, then i have to get it in the house faster than an aldi check out and i know matt could do it but i feel obliged to help

morning all

Feels really cool here today, even though the outside thermometer is saying different. It must be lying!

I'd love there to be a Company shop around here but I doubt they'll ever open one in East Anglia. Not enough chimney pots to make it worthwhile I guess, although with the amount of farmland being swallowed up for new housing at this rate it won't be long before there are enough. They never used to be allowed to build on agricultural land but how that has changed

Thought our tv was going years ago, colour kept going weird, turned the HDMI cable the opposite way round and it’s been working fine since. Hope yours has plenty of life left in it too lalli.

I agree with online food shopping when Son was living here during covid and we did online order drove me potty much easier in shop plus you can get the food with better use by dates on 

Another thing to check is if the aerial lead is pushed in fully. We had a reception problem on ours, no-one had removed the aerial lead but somehow it had started to come out, a quick push soon solved that one.

Can you describe the problem?  Just in case it is something we have come across.

Well the job was done in record time so I am free now

Thank you i have blocked it .

Enterprise, the TV isn’t connected to anything except wifi. We use iPlayer, Amazon video and YouTube.

It’s been getting gradually less and less responsive to the commands of the remote, despite changing batteries. Today it didn’t respond to the power off button on the actual tv so we had to unplug it.

It also decides it’s had enough of whatever we’re watching and throws us back onto the Home Screen, usually with the apps showing but lately it’s just been giving us a blank screen. It used to ask if we’d had enough after 2 hours of something but today it was kicking us back to the Home Screen after 2 minutes without asking if we were still watching.

I’ve done a complete factory reset and it’s working better now but still sometimes drops back to the Home Screen after an episode. Not so bad if you’re watching masterchef but this was Numberblocks so between 3-6 minutes long.

It’s a Sony Bravia with android and apparently there’s an app that gives you greater functionality and troubleshooting but it’s only available on android phones or tablets and we no longer have one in the house.

It was one of the first HD of some type when we bought it and it was £1,500 odd. I think the equivalent now is £300 new so I’m assuming the technology has improved significantly.

We do have have a projector I can run off the laptop if it does die so it isn’t the end of the world

I don't think I've ever noticed the music I'll pay attention next time I go 😆
