Peggy's Mundane Thread

I think I’ve bought a new printer the last three times the ink cartridges have run out...because it has literally been cheaper to do that, than replace both cartridges.

Top mundanity here with this chat btw.

The one I bought has ink tanks that you fill yourself. It’s suppose to be cheaper than cartridges.

I just get my printing done at the copy shop now because I only use a printer a few times a year and when I do it's alway fooked. Still got my broken one under the PC, hasn't worked in six months.

The problem with mine was I didn't cover it up when the builders were in and it got covered in brick dust and the like.

Had a biblical type flood here last night, I've lived here for thirty years and only seen it like that once about fifteen years ago, the one as big before that was in 1952! It's ripped up big bits of Tarmac up the road and the river was a foot deep on the road past the houses here. A couple moved in up the road last year and they have a nice riverside garden which they have built a summer house on, I told matey to build it on stilts but got ignored they are swamping it all out now they are lucky it wasn't washed away totally.

The 3 day xmas log fire is lit.

It'll really get biblical when Noah comes knocking one day sorting out a mooring for his big boat...... .

Was queuing outside the butchers in Launceston at 7.20 this morning, did the Christmas meat shop, up to Lidls where there was about six people in the store and got everything else, drove away as the sun came up all done and dusted by 8.20. And relax.

Did our last shop last night. Got all the beer. Most important thing!

Our Christmas Dinner arriving ready to eat from my sons family around the corner....and the same on Sunday from our daughters family....it's tough....but someones got to do it.....

We are having beef today but not as a roast dinner but with pigs in blankets, bread rolls and cheese.

Practising picking strings to ‘Goodbye Angelina’ - Dylan, whilst eating 2 year old sweet pickle opinions.

Now lodger 1 is staying at home for the foreseeable future she has decided to change her room around which means I am doing all the heavy lifting and shifting!

Lodger 1’s car needs an MOT and good old dad is getting it done. I will probably be paying for the it as well!

Been strimming and chain sawing and having a good old burn up.

Just been out for a walk and heard an ice cream van playing the theme to The A-Team.

There's some right cnuts on Ebay.

Just had a take away Chinese. Very nice.

Bought Mother a White Loaf and two pints of milk, semi skimmed.

Watching Liverpool v Man U game. Bored feckin shitless!

Sold my iPad on Fleabay.

Just sat through ten minutes of Mary Anne Hobbs on six music waiting for Sean Keaveney to start. I can't stand her too cool for school attitude and low half asleep tones plus her trancey/drum and bass music is utter shite, sounds more like a 3am come down show than mid morning fare. Grrr....

My BIL is a farmer and said he found a leak in one of his barns, looked up at the roof and a clear corrugated sheet has a hole in it about two feet across with melted edges. He reckoned it got hit by that massive thunderclap a couple of weeks ago. There's about 400 bales is straw in the other end. Savage.

Put the green waste bin out for the first time this year.

Had an email from the BBC asking me to take part in a survey about the BBC and its services.

All filled out. Very enjoyable to get things off your chest once in a while.

I don't think I will be asked again!
