The BBC annoyed me last night. There was a programme advertised on BBC4 on the Chernobyl nuclear reactor. Now I thought this might be interesting...
Far too much personal baggage and uninteresting trivia in many programmes now. Two programmes I record and fast-forward through a lot of it....
Thanks for that, but I've checked it. If when the boiler is "on" and I turn the thermostat down past when it "clicks" it turns the system to...
A third series of Dark Winds will follow in the UK soon. A good place to check on what's coming in 2026 on TV is here....
The BBC started getting complaints about it shortly after it started.
I find cooking a Chinese meal with different ingredients a doddle. [img] It's just a question of timing. [img] [img]
We're still having problems with our central heating. I can't get it to raise the temperature in the house above 19c. This is with the radiators...
We were fortunate with our dryer, in that because we have a tiny kitchen and it didn't need to go in it, I could put it in the cupboard under the...
A new series of Lynley started last night. I gave up with it. The main characters had too much uninteresting, "baggage." It seems they can't make...
My mother bought a treadle operated sewing machine before the war, with a bow-fronted door. It had thick mahogany veneer. A really nice piece of...
We have a British made Indesit tumble dryer that must be getting on for twenty years old. It was only a basic one, with just two levels of heat...

We had a bit of snow...more like sleet and just a bit settled on the patio and paths, but not on the lawn. [img] [img] A Hong Kong Chinese...
We have an interactive Sony Bravia android TV in the front room (" I rarely talk to it.") rand one of our two Virgin 360 boxes, (you can talk to...
It's bright and sunny but 0c so no gardening. There's frost on the windscreen of my car. I don't intend to go out today. If I started it, it...
That's from 2014. Sarah Lancashire has come a long way since she was "Raquel."
Nothing today, as it's far too cold. It will be dry for the next few days. The temperatures are not expected to rise above freezing, before...
Thanks for that. There's not much made of "real wood," these days, it's just like the sideboard, chipboard or mdf with a wood veneer. Even that...
Car jacks are handy. When I put my two jukeboxes in our tea-house, nearly 20 years ago, these weigh around 300lb each I decided to add additional...
