T shirt.
I favour a t shirt with the slogan 'Please keep Your distance, common sense also seems to be in quarantine.'
Suitably spaced and positioned.
A pic of a face mask (skull and crossbones?) would also be good.
I'll take 5 mins on ebay tomorrow.

Like both these ideas. I have considered printing a tee shirt with something like "common sense is not in lockdown - 2 meters applies to you"

We had an old boy lived 6 doors up from me. He used to put Tiger poo from the
local Zoo on his garden to stop cats shitting on it. It worked well, till they told
him to go in and collect his own lot of Tiger Poo.

Jack's probably not pleased,
She helped spawn an awful lot of bad jokes.
Now, will the real Slim Shady please stand up?
Wiki Slim Shady, it yields more laughs.

Sitting here drinking myself into oblivion.
Split the lambs from the ewes today, (Lamb-gate has been running all week, but time to dry the mums up).
The youngsters don't need milk anymore, but they are right outside my door, shouting that they do.
The mums are not missing having their udders and teats beaten up!
They are very quiet.

To be fair the bread was just a basic 'lob in' but did seem to benefit from a bit of neglect.

Hi peeps, we leicesterfarians land are still in partial lockdown, so have been spending a lot of time making booze, my son just said 'mum you have to stop there is over 60ltrs of spirit in the garage, add to that the wines cider and beer it's got a bit out of control'

I guess I don't handle boredom very well. I think he just wants me to stop cos have been dragging him round hedgerows collecting wild fruits cos he's tall. and we have a really old orchard here and he can climb the trees
Big thanks though to everyone for helpful advice and making me snigger lots, and Gazza advice and posts on using t500, got power controller thingy and it does arf make it easier to control the run. Also got air stone and pump - totally loving easy polishing and loving the results, freeze stripping trials next - cheer Mash. Plus big cheers to ED and his mods for keeping it all running too - cheers - jack

So today, I bottled a beer, got another started and got a 50 litre sugar wash going.
Finding time for alcohol production has been hard recently, but I am now doing it.
And I need to, the stocks are depleting rapidly.
Another beer will be brewed on the morrow.
We have had much rain in these parts, and where our piggies live resembles the Somme, during the bad days.
They have another 4 weeks of grunting before they visit the butcher, and so tomorrow I must re-fence their grazing area.
Today, I also sorted car tax, insurance and breakdown. So can forget for another year.
Distractions falling away.
Robert.

Put 100l of CF wash in my airing cupboard today. Unfortunately my inconsiderate OH had packed it with feckin washin while my back was turned. I know she likes to pick stuff up so I put it on the bathroom floor for her. Don't know why she got all sweary and in my face about it as I distinctly remember her saying that she liked surprises when I made her a cup of tea only the day before

Don't know why she put all my washing in a suitcase either, she knows it goes in the chest of drawers, some people eh
