I have found out that Vanish stain remover doesn't entirely rid white bed linen of red wine stains

It must be the season, my blueberry bush (my sole contribution to the garden) is covered in them!
It was too boring to count how many though

I'm watching the Sarah Jane adventures on CBBC, so I'm not bored one little bit(honest). Emma, my darling 5 year old daughter, has had chicken pox for the last week and a half, so my hand's have been full running after her. CBBC and Dr Who have been keeping her occupied, so I suppose I can't complain too much.

I think we call those Ladybugs over here? (Or is it a bird native to Europe?)

Spent a wonderful time playing with the steam roller today. And I get to do it tomorrow too!

My life is so awesome it hurts (at least that would explain the muscle spasms and general cack?)

Trouble is tomorrow involves a photograph shoot with nubile women in not much clothing (in October?!) parading themselves across the roller / fire engines / tractors / workshop blah blah blah... luckily I have a very interesting Haynes manual to read.

Hey Clara,
Everyone always says, "make sure to post pictures so we know exactly what your so bored about." But, not me. No sirry-Bobby. Maybe though, if you could find deep within you to drum up some of that good 'ol woman intuition, and guess what I'm THINKING!!

And no, it doesn't have anything to do with your Haynes Manual.

Ah, I'm bored.

I forgot this morning that the clocks had changed (I hadn't changed them before I went to bed) I am going to celebrate my new found hour by going out to lunch. Today we will be mostly eating roast dinner in country pub location.

Getting out of London! :specool:

Boring for some, for others way :mfrlol:. Ya know that tiny digital camera in your pocket or bag, well it was first created by the same folks that invented film, Eastman Kodak. The engineer in charge was/is Steve Sasson, below is a link from DPReview about CCD's, the inventors and the patient, and a video of the inventor of the first hand held digital camera...webcams and phones use this same technology; amazing progress in 34 years :lmao:

Some b*st*rd has cloned my Visa card and splurged about £12000 on it in the past month, causing me to spend all morning on the phone to the "Barclaycard helpdesk" ( oxymoron ) trying to get someone in Mumbai to understand that "Sorry. No. I can't give you details of the dealer's name for purchases made by the THIEF".

If I have to answer one more security question to verify who I am, I swear the phone's going through the window!!!!!!!!!

Oh poop!!
Phone help desks are always useful. Waste the day by going into a bank and talking to the people in there. That way they get to verify in person just where you put said phone.

Hope you get it sorted :( I'll send E-Dog over if it'll help?

It was a very good Haynes Manual.

Unfortunately I wasn't allowed to take my camera in so you'll have to use your imagination...

I'm so bored. And trapped at work.

I hope you have better success than my sister, six months on & Barclays bank refuse to do anything saying she must have giving someone her pin so it her fault & she’s got to pay.
The programme on BBC1 last night about Barclays card security has giving her hope & some avenues for help.
