Just need to book this year's jab
Kettering probably deserves it.

Looks exactly like Bro's 45 years ago (different brand). Mine was royal blue.

Took me some discussion before they agreed I could leave it outside for them to collect another day. And 2 more missed dates.

I keep seeing stories about the new AI "actress". Is this not just a cartoon creation? We have live action movies and animated movies. The reason people like live action is that they can see a real actor they like in a new role, or reprising an existing role. Do we really want to watch AI cartoons?

I will get 4.1p for about 350 kWh so far out of the 1.48MWh I have exported. These are the things that are definitely not explained anywhere on anyone's website.

I try to be as informative and helpful as possible. It's the new Reform Ltd unitary councillors who are generally more troublesome.

Rain has stopped play. Even the pool is closed, which is a bit odd, as we can't get much wetter. A few hardy souls have been to the beach to swim.
