Good morning worlds!
It is bin day.
Pink - food and garden waste.
Brown - bottles, cans, and plastic food tubs.

I am going to meet Sue at work in a bit. Then I will work out how best to view the eclipse this evening.

I also have to figure out what else I can get onto the trailer for the next load into Wales.

I used a welding shield with two filter lenses together to get it safe enough to view and take photos.

We also just managed to get to maximum before running out of carpark and ending up on the motorway slip road!

Of course not, you'd be putting more sh*t on than wiping off. Plus dogs have very sensitive noses.

It has been good just getting away, even if only to a usual and familiar place for coffee, cake, and lunch.

I am still feeling a bit off form, but otherwise ok.

It *is* important, after all. It was just rather fun watching it turn into a comedy after having it fuel several days of needless anxiety every week for years. Hubby walking in after work and looking real smug "I beat your dad to the trash bins today" was just so strange and funny and such an *experience* all its own 🀣 lucky for them, they have all their trash to themselves again now. Sometimes hubby still tells me it's trash day.

A small redeeming quality.

The Stun is another terrible use of paper. Liverpool have practically turned their backs on it due to the Hillsborough coverage and it showed in the Brexit voting.

Ha, yes, getting competitive over the trash nagging.

Fortunately we are not quite so bad, but I do like to get it done within my routine time, but it is only 'my routine time' and no one else needs to be fussed about it. πŸ‘

The reading material of choice is the Sun. And some "social" media thing where others like him hang out. They were celebrating that the New IRA have declared civil war if all immigrants are not evicted from Ireland. Total bunch of fuckwits.

As a cherry on top, he and Dad started trying to race each other to get the bins put out, resulting in some absurd trash can espionage. Quite silly by the end

Your language is understandable.
It's so depressing. Sadly my dad is like that. At least we know the cause: The Daily Fail!!!!

It's depressing to think that so many people are like that, even ones you care about.

I know I can't make it better, but maybe I can divert you with a tale of our former trash day ritual? When we lived with my parents, they were retired and Trash Day was sacred because they didn't have hobbies and so Trash Day was a weekly holiday where everyone was reminded at least six times and pestered and re-reminded and everyone got in each other's way and it was this whole obnoxious thing. ->
