Eggs

Lying in bed this morning, listening to Radio 4, I heard the presenter talking about farmers who had had problems making a living with cows and, instead 'getting into eggs.' 
"That must be a bit of a squash," I remarked to Keith. Yes, even at 6.30am, the old mind is razor sharp.
"Yes," agreed Keith and then in a Welsh farmer's accent, 
"We didn't have much luck milking them, though."
(I can hear Elder Daughter's groans from here...)

Ha! Ha! ... But - radio at 6.30am? You are retired and should be sleeping late or were the dogs yelping for their morning walk?

Tell Keith he should have bought a lower milking stool!

Ah, so that's the answer!

Plaster board and dust

So, we're still no further forward on the British Gas smart meter front and I've given up making non-existent appointments with them...
