Sean – I am in the middle of converting the spare bedroom.  Unfortunately the work is as yet incomplete..  *sigh*

Backy – A very essential basic necessity, I would have though?  When they find your starved frozen body after the thaw, you want to have a clean arse, after all??

Made it to sainsburys yesterday and was tickled to find that there was a rush on in, wait for it, not the bread aisle, not the milk aisle, not even the cereal aisle. The bog roll aisle was looking very bare indeed. Either there has been an outbreak of Dysentery in Tunbridge wells or people are afraid of using their sleeves in an emergency I thought it was hilarious. Joking aside, the main roads were clear, it seems the gritting trucks had finally worked, our back lanes are still a death trap that only a 4x4 can really negotiate, that and the odd cyclist without lights. Loons. Grandad, I dont live in mountains but we do live in an undulating landscape shall we say.
