Evening.
Rain most of the day here. Some of it heavy. It's dried up this evening though.
Cooler as well. A high of 15 degrees.

 

I should have quite a lot to do next week, as the jobs that have been putting me off will all be due a visit. And I think there's been enough rain now to give it a boost, providing it heats up again.

 

Had another look at the catch on the cooker door and I don't think I can fix it. Something broke and a vital bit disappeared down into the door, and even if I dismantled the door and retrieved it, it would still be broken.
It's a fan assisted oven in an electric cooker. I think the oven stays on if the door is opened, but the fan won't run unless a fridge door style switch is pushed in by the door.
The brick is actually ideal for keeping it shut, and as my kitchen is a sort of muted brick orange colour anyway, it kind of fits in with the decor.

 

I rent the place unfurnished and undecorated, so the landlady has no responsibility for cooker and white goods etc; only the boiler and plumbing and bathroom suite etc.
No doubt I'll get a telling off from SiL when she visits, and told I should buy a new cooker. But this one's only 26 years old, and most of the rings still work as well as the grill, so I think it's good for a few more years, brick and all.

 

Hicky. Pity it rained on you as you were unravelling the vine.
Sorry to hear you MiL isn't well. She must be a fair age?


Mollie. You must be well and truly hooked on the auction stuff if you are on first name terms with the staff.
3 leather jackets for £38 sounds a bargain, as long as the linings aren't moth eaten?
Glad you are pleased with the microwave.

 

Watched CH5 tonight 'Celebrity 5 Go Caravanning' then Jane McDonald and Friends.
