A secret to doing something unpleasant, is to just do it before excuses take over. I had just made a cup of coffee and opened a yoghourt, to counteract low blood sugar, when I chose to check the water softener and saw it was seriously depleted.
Off I went to the garage (round the back of the houses), `grabbed´ one of the 25kg bags and charged back to the house with it. Actually, if anyone had filmed me, I would have looked like a hobgoblin grimacing and scurrying along, knees bent with this massive weight `resting´ on my stomach.
The tank was so empty, it needed the entire bag emptied. And now all the muscles and bits are beginning to protest.
Meanwhile, the issue of the unwanted press releases has been sorted thanks to Twitter and Gorkana. Pity it all took so long, although, for anyone interested, ICO will not deal with anything twelve months and over.
On Saturday, a big fat fly flew in through the front door as I was chatting to the Next courier. There were no open windows and it declined to follow me to the conservatory, so I ignored it and then forgot it was there.
On Sunday morning, up it flew into the bathroom as I was abluting, batting the window, fit and eager to leave and, presumably, prompting me to open it. I did, and off it sped.
Since we are now a week into November, I suppose my erstwhile fat friend is a sign of climate change.
