On other matters, my smile.

Pulled what looked like the ground of stub of a nail out of my rear tyre this morning.
And thankfully it hadn't gone all the way through. Happy Days.

And it's Friday.

Happy Friday peeps.

Not really sure if this should be in the 'smile' section' or we should have a new 'omg' section but I've just seen a covid mask (just been comissioned by an Israeli jeweller) fetch $1.5 million!! I suppose it did make me laugh ...a bit.
I suppose when you think about it, the Ralph Lauren mask is a snip at just £450. Hahahaaaa.
What on earth is this world coming to.

Been using a couple of the 'scarecrow' PIR cat sprayers for many years to keep the local moggies away, pity you have to stop using them in winter due to freezing. We had a pond years ago and cats used to come and fish in it - so i set the scarecrow up by pond, but pigeons also used to use the pond for drinking - I was looking out of kitchen window one day as a pigeon ( flying rat ) flew off the fence towards pool, he triggered the PIR in mid flight and high velocity water headed his way - pigeon did a backflip and landed back on fence shaking the water off - priceless. One of the good things about water squirter is that you can hear the water flowing in house pipes when it it triggered, one thing you do notice is that a few days after you deploy it the number of time it is triggered drops a lot - but it is best to move it around regularly as cats are tricky creatures.

You're not wrong with the '@#$%wits' thing, a few weeks ago at work I had to literally show a young lad (17) how to use a mop n bucket! I thought at first he was having a laugh but nooooo, he really couldn't figure out how the bucket wringing part worked and I had to demonstrate just how to mop a floor. It really is a bit sad, although this type of thing frustrates the hell out of me, it also makes me laugh.
So... Ladies and gentlemen... I give you... the future of England! Now, if they could only figure out how to boil an egg with an I phone. Hahahaaaaaaaaa.
