Potentially good news then. Can you just buy a new starter thing and return the tube for a refund?

Would you remember the person who served you though? I'd recommend going to a different till, just in case they think you are a blatant nectar points thief, and try to deduct your pointage from your now returned tube. Which I suppose they'd be quite within their rights to do, I guess.

Could you cope with it on your conscience if you walked out again with fraudulent nectar points?

A proper quandry, innit.

Not worth buggering about with, keep it for next time and get two starters they are cheap enough.

But if the first one is a false starter, then the light will be disqualified.

Played golf today at Yelverton.

Very windy, but didn't lose any balls - which was nice.

Decisions, decisions ... I'll worry about it next year. The washing up can wait.

Just had to eat my cereal with a serving spoon.

I can't believe how much of an issue milk is becoming in my pathetic little life.

The only fresh stuff easily available is from Morrisons, trucked over from the UK, with a resultant reduction in use by date. I end up throwing lots away over the course of a month.

I have a carton of emergency UHT rubbish, but it's just not the same.

Nipping over the Frontier to Spain for milk is a lottery. Depends if the Spanish Customs and Border Police are in a good mood or not.

Managed to get out today and bought some, you've guessed milk.

All day I've had the urge to go somewhere that looks like a normal urban scene, but every hour or so, a cross channel ferry passes by at the end of the street.

An optical illusion, as it were.

Suffice to say, I've got diarrhoea and couldn't leave the house.

A nice mug of hot milk is just the thing for optical illusions.

I will need to get some more milk in tomorrow.

Forgot to report - what with all the excitement about the kitchen light - that I bought milk yesterday.

The phone's back in English now. Everything was fine in German except the predictable text thingy only spoke German. Which was a bit of a pain.

I haven't had diarrhoea for years. I have had milk more recently, though.

No sprouts for Christmas dinner then, had two bouts of it, one after Christmas dinner and another after sprout bubble and squeak two days later.

We had duck, parsnip, carrot, potatoes, shallots and sprouts. My veggie daughter had a cannelloni of my own devising. And none of us had diarrhoea. I was largely veggie for about 5 years and you then get used to a looser bowel movement but no diarrhoea for me.

What? Sometimes these things need discussing. It can't all be deep philosophy. It is mundane. geek

A couple of years ago, my rediscovery of long socks proved a boon in the cold weather.

Now, I'm proud to unveil another winter warmer: a flannelette duvet cover.

With flannelette sheet and pillow cases, obviously.

Perhaps you should get into the Onesie thing.

I have a sore back, from supporting my swaying wife home from the pub last night.
