Erm, sounds intriguing! Do we get to see a picture?
It was just the aircon going insane, raised the temperature to 70 degrees inside the room, which set off the IR fire detection system, but you have to treat it as a real fire and sf6 gas release. So full BA gear, flash over gear just to go in and open the doors plus change the broken temperature probe...Erm, sounds intriguing! Do we get to see a picture?

Currently a broken man.
Spent yesterday helping our landscaper with our garden, where we’re having a patio built. Spent all day yesterday running a cement mixer, then carrying the mix in Flexi tubs through the house. We have money in the budget for a labourer to do this sort of thing, but the lad doing the job maintains that he can’t find anyone, so it sort of falls to me. I can either help him and speed the job along, or let it drag on.
Thus, today, I’m finding literally everything aches. Back, legs, shoulders, abs. I’ve come to the conclusion at 38, that getting old sucks.

Doesn't like like getting old just how unfit you are
In my defence, I’ve had COVID since I last did this at the end of November, and it didn’t feel this bad back then. Back at it again today, just hoping that with this run of good weather we’ve had these past few days that we can get it finished before Christmas.

My neighbour just gave me some freshly cooked rabbit for my dogs which is so kind and awesome of him!!
It's not so kind if it was his other neighbours pet rabbits.

He says it was from a friend of his, who is a butcher.
He's a bit scary looking and hard as nails so didn't want to get into "details"

Whoop, made it to our 10th wedding anniversary!
Each year we don't really do big gifts and just try and take the current theme and get something small, then have a competition to see who "wins". We're in disagreement this year.
I got her this (she loves currys)

She got me this

Her reasoning for me winning is that she was told the whisky came in a tin but it's cardboard so she's disqualified. I don't care i like Whisky
Although my parents have upstaged us both with a £200 gift voucher for the Brewdog hotel in Manchester which i absolutely can't wait for

I can't stop laughing because I farted so loudly just now that I woke both Maddie and Lilith up from a deep slumber!!

Just had the nursing home on the phone, my Father has taken a severe turn for the worse and they're saying they don't think he'll last more than a few hours. ******* hate this Covid, I haven't seen him for nearly a month and we can't even go up to sit with him in his final moments. **** knows how we're going to tell my Sister.

Oh man, so sorry to hear that. Been following all your previous updates, but that's got to be absolutely awful.

Oh I'm so sorry to hear that.
Soldato
Thanks. Just had the phone call to say he's passed away. One of the nurses phoned up to say she was going to stay after her shift and sit with him through the night so he wasn't alone, then 30 mins later she phoned up to say he'd just closed his eyes and gone.

So sorry to hear this

Awful news. My thoughts are with you and your family at such a terrible time.
I’m sure you have plenty support but get in touch if you need anything.

So very sorry mate. Sad news. Sounds like he went very peacefully.

My condolences. Very sorry
One of my childhood friend also lost his dad over the weekend too.
