oldbloke's mutterings

Weekdays, I have to go and drag Jack from his bed.
Weekends, he's up at the crack, prodding one of us awake.
Weird enough.
But there's more.
He can apparently tell, in advance, without having been told, when it's a non-nursery weekday, so he can do the weekend crack o'dawn routine then too.
5:15 today.
AAAAAAARRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHH

The voice of Lenny the Lion is gone

Lenny was born the same year as me. But didn't make it to TV until he was two.

As L said: Damn you, Lidl! We can't afford to keep saving money like this!

We've got a minor fly problem, to do with the amount of fruit waste in and on the way to the compost bin. I say minor, there's a zillion tiny flies, mainly in the kitchen, very annoying. Quite apart from what happens when you take the lid of the compost bin.

So annoying had it become, that when we happened to pass the venus flytraps in the garden centre yesterday, we bought two.

They don't work. Not yet, at least.

Screwfix have one of those UV flykiller things, but it's an industrial unit for 80 quid.
I could only find a battery powered one for camping in the laminated book of dreamsArgos catalogue

Guess what's in the Lidl offers for this very day?

www.britishsnoring.co.uk for all your British snoring needs.
Is British snoring different to other snoring, then?

Rhodri - the Kleerway nasal strips are cheaper than the Breathrights. And if the palate suport lozenge is enough on its own, skip the nasal strips and save your money!

I'll experiment with nasal strips and if they work, I quite fancy a
Snore-no-more.

If they don't, I'll try the palate lozenge and if that works, maybe I'll try a mandibular advancement device (or MAD, for short...). There are cheaper ones than the Tomed on the britishsnoring site (eg SleepPro)
