There is the pleasant afterburn of chilli in my mouth this morning upon the conclusion of breakfast. A simple crushed avocado on wholemeal sourdough toast with a chopped chilli, walnuts and lime juice and a single slice of bacon fried in its own fat. Good honest fare.
Preparation of this meal was not without excitement as I knocked the small cafetiere from the draining board onto the floor smashing it into smithereens. This dismayed me more than the breaking of a small, cheap cafetiere should have done because it was the one THG used to make her coffee in the mornings. You always hurt the one you love the most!
I’ll get her another one, for Christmas. Christmas is sooner than her birthday 🙂.
Now in the shed psyching myself to finish the work I started yesterday. Not in a rush to get started. Made slow progress yesterday but now that I am straight in my mind how it is going to play out it won’t take too long to finish. Preparation is nine tenths of the work as they say. That will be £5 typing it in, £9,995 for knowing what to type.
I do have some jobs on the list for today. Sort out Amex, rationalise my domains and bung out a few invoices. Trefbash sponsors. Couldn’t do it without them.
Also just received an sms telling me a package will arrive from Google this lunchtime. Great. It can only be my new Google TV Streamer 4K. They said it would be sometime week of 4th November so this is a result, certainly in expectation management.
I’ve been having issues with streaming sport from Discovery + to the audio visual device in the shed, both via Chromecast and Roku. Works ok on the older telly in the TV room and I figured it was down to the peripherals in the shed not cutting it. It’s a posh telly. Will soon find out. Twould be an issue if I couldn’t watch half the sport in the shed, the natural home for such activity in our house. Obvs. It’s where the fridge is.
It gives me confidence that Google is using DPD who have said they will deliver between 12.23 and 12.23. You just know they will be there at 12.23. I was once waiting on the delivery of a phone and the DPD guy was hanging around outside. His system wouldn’t let him deliver before the stated time. Think it was DPD. Definitely wasn’t Evri, or Amazon.

Not done any work yet but seem to have whiled away the morning. A sausage sarnie made lunch palatable.
