Second power cut of the week, but thankfully this one only lasted an hour.

I've just watched Germaine Greer on TV. She bears an uncanny resemblance to the late Ken Dodd.

She lives near to me and frequents our local chinese restaurant. She is probably one of the sweariest people I have ever encountered. (Also extremely loud. And funny. Not what you expect.)

I used to use Nectar points on a regular basis, rounding down a total to make for less bulky change in my pocket.

I've got out of the habit in recent years, but happened to glance at a receipt the other day and realised how much I'd built up.

So, today, I bought enough beef shin for 2 meals, new potatoes, 2 bottles of wine and some fresh peas, cashed in some points and... handed over £2.15 for the lot.

I wish I'd thought of it a week or so ago, when VISA's central computer went on the fritz.

Just reached Level 100 on Brick Breaker Star on my phone.

The first one was a Sudoku and this one is for a Cryptic Crossword. (You know, I probably shouldn't admit this in public, but this is the greatest day of my life!)

I wasn't always a duck. I started on the internet as this dog:

I converted to Duckism in about 2009.

I feed the blackbirds sultanas and they know the tin I keep near the door , so he helps himself but somehow lost the sat nav . God knows why he’s been in and out for ages ... but he’s took a wrong turn twice in three days now trying to get out  for some reason

Check to see if your sultanas have fermented.
