She is in the middle of moving house, putting furniture in store and a myriad other related chores. I think she's probably too busy to post.Anyone heard from @TinaD - she hasn't been on here since Dec 20. I hope she's OK?
Cliff I share your fathers sentiment.For those of us unlucky enough not to have a Mr Eggy around the house who can turn his hand at DIY then I have always had the attitude of why try and take twice as long to do half as good a job when you can pay someone who can do it much better and quicker.My father was an accountant and as soon as I started doing self-employed work (even though at that time it was only a tiny bit of private work alongside my full-time NHS job) he advised me to get an accountant (not him!) to do my tax. He pointed out (correctly) that it would be better me spending my time using my training and skills in my own profession to earn money to pay for an accountant, rather than try to be an amateur accountant and (inevitably) not do it as well or as quickly as a professional. I had to learn to value and cost my time - which is something that the NHS doesn't tend to do with its employees!
Very interesting. I’ll hang on for as long as possible.@eggyg In some states in the USA, California is one I believe, you can now be officially composted. They have special pods that you are put into, presumably with some sort of "starter" and it rotates to maintain good aerobic bacteria and I think you get the resulting compost after a month or two, if I remember rightly. You can then use it in your garden without potentially devaluing your home! Not legal here yet but perhaps if we can hang on long enough it might become possible.
Hi @Eternal422 yes a few people have noticed @Gwynn has been absent this week, I think he might’ve posted on Saturday, like others3.2 this morning. Hmm, may just be due to not having much to eat yesterday evening and night due to a frozen mouth after the dentist visit. Let’s see how today goes, but already only at 4.6 a couple of hours after porridge, so will have to dial back the bolus a bit until I’m back up a bit more.
Not much planned today, did think about an outing to a NT nearby for a walk and coffee, especially as we have blue skies and sunshine for a very welcome change.
Not seen @Gwynn on here for a few days, hope all is ok.
Take care everyone!
