ABM not forgetting cyber Monday today.
Orion and it’s nebula showing well last night.🌙
Frosty but sunny day today so panels charging well for the 3rd day running.🌞
Had fun on the doorstep yesterday tying a canvasser for a political party in knots. I managed to confuse this one for about 10 minutes before they remembered an important appointment. 🤣

Frost gone overnight so no scraping of cars this morning down side is grey skies and dull, doubt we will be generating anything from the panels today.
Toyota gone into garage this morning for a look at, we've experienced juddering when reversing up an incline, most noticeable when reversing onto a pitch with the caravan but even solo we've had it so its in the garage.
Tidy up of all the caravan stuff that had been dumped in the front bedroom, now dumped upstairs in the attic room I've given my wardrobe and under bed storage a good tidy out too, managed to throw a few things out and half a bag of stuff for the charity shop.
OH just finished his ironing so guess I 'd better finish this and get on with mine.

Good clear skies last night Oneputt, always worth a look skywards! No canvassers here, just lots of leaflets. Very frosty this morning, loads of birds in the garden, the last of the apples have been left for them, our lone Fieldfare likes to chase off the blackbirds. Plumbing emergency at our daughter's house this morning, a long running plumbing saga, one bit gets sorted and then another thing happens, only a small terraced house, at least they have a wood burner.
Making inroads with the Christmas shopping, trying to keep it simple this year..failing as usual!

You are obviously the same as us OP. We take no prisoners if canvassers knock......... Given the range of political persuasions that pepper our tiny little street, it’s probably got a “under no circumstances knock” warning for all parties. We might all vote differently, but we all get on fine and are united in terms of giving canvassers a hard time😂
Not that you find many Trotskyist canvassers around nowadays.....🤣

I think we miss the ‘doorstep tussle’ a little bit. We get lots of leaflets through the letterbox but as we live in a ‘No Cold Calling’ area they can’t knock. We’re just out to our first Christmas Dinner outing, always nice to meet up with friends but we will not be having turkey on Christmas Day! 😂

We have just booked a birthday lunch later this week. Not wanting Xmas Fayre, have always found it overpriced and disappointing in the past. Fingers crossed there are no “parties” booked in on same day, we just want a quiet meal and chat. It’s a nice place, off the beaten track, so less likely to get the big office/works “do’s”🤞

ABM we have a grandma like that in our family. Not only does she make sure that she undoes us with buying presents but it seems there is a competition as to how often she sees the grandchildren and who they love the most . Luckily we are going to N. Ireland for Christmas to see our grandchildren over there and the Irish grandparents are lovely.
