    Just got back with the dog, we managed 2.8 miles today. He has had a couple of good ones this weekend because he didn't get out much over the week as my Dad was working and Mum has a bad knee. :blush:

    @Teigr
    Yeah that’s a lie in for me  I’m usually awake after 8ish. 
    Nope no toblerone here 😂

    @Albus_Scope
    I hope your power is back on soon.
    Oh glad you got a chippy.
    The McDonald’s was good I can’t remember the last time I had one so was a wee change.

    @Sandy_123
    I’m not sure if I’ve missed a post is your power down to.

    @66Mustang
    Another good walk for you that’s great.

    You're doing great with the walks @66Mustang nice one!

    Alas we're still on a backup generator @Lou67 and the wifi keeps cutting out, but at least I can still work. So glad you enjoyed your filthy Maccies, they're great as a treat. Though I swear everything's smaller these days?

    @Albus_Scope
    Oh yeah forgot you sd about the back up generator that’s great, the wind will be causing havoc with the WiFi.
    Omg yes Mcds are definitely smaller your right everything’s smaller. We are paying more but what we receive is smaller 🙄

    The thing I don't get with things getting smaller, something I vaguely remember from economics, it is often more economical to charge the customer more because once the sale has been made the quantity can often be increased for less money - increasing returns - if that makes sense?

    E.g. say an item is £1.00 they can increase the price by 5% and keep the size the same; but to keep the price the same they have to reduce the size by 15%. 

    I'm not sure if that makes sense :D

    Afternoon everyone I hope yous are all enjoying your day.
    Im having a lazy afternoon now, I went on the treadmill for a little while. 


    @66Mustang
    Im not sure about the ins and outs of the sizing off things I’m hopeless 😂 I just know a lot of things I used to get are now a lot smaller. 

    @Marydoll5

    Hi I hope you’re doing well this afternoon, I had a look on Amazon for candles for you and there’s lots of cheap ones here a photo of one I saw, but there’s loads.

    @Ada

    Do you want candles for the light or the heat?

    If it's just the light, would you consider pretend electric LED candles with a battery? You can get some really realistic ones and they are brighter, safer, cheaper to run, and, have not checked this but perhaps better for the planet. The only thing they don't do is produce heat.

    My Dad used to laugh at them but he got a job as a fire alarm tester and learnt about fire safety and he is now a convert, he doesn't like real candles anymore due to the fire risk.

    @66Mustang
    I use one off them in my lantern on my window it looks great at night the battery’s don’t last that long that’s the only negative I found but I still really like them. 😊

    Is it my imagination or do we have a storm of some description every other week?
