LATEST MOAN FROM YOU AND ME 2020

I m not sure but I think it goes back to the days before TV were in use.
@shiney will remember it well.

 

I always remember my old Mums stories about before the war.
One of those was about having a radio and it ran off of what they called an accumulator, a kind of battery.
You had to get then serviced in some way, presumably charged up.
She said they wouldn't let you on a bus with one, so you had to walk all the way there and back with it.
This was in London.

 

The a/c in the kitchen just went kaput! Fortunately I had just finished cooking the mince for tacos tonight. Luckily we eat light in the Summer so not a lot of cooking goes on, plus we eat out once a week and get take aways once or twice a week, a roast chicken from the grocery store deli and/or fresh home-made from our local bar/restaurant.

T'other Half will contact our a/c man about replacement. They are all heat / air but to go out in the Summer. We don't really have a Winter but also have a wood burner in the lounge and as we have open arches everywhere it heats all. We have them in both bedrooms. lounge, kitchen and outdoor living room (only a/c there)..

 

My Daughter bought a TV Licence for a Black & White set and has always had a colour set..........Oh did I just say that

 

Well you can adjust the colour, so I'm guessing that is what she is doing?

 

No Just tight Pete.

 

And there was me trying to make it legal

 

Good try Pete.

 

Following on from the a/c problems in the kitchen the other day, which T'other Half fixed himself (saving us approximately 1,700 Euros for an upgraded model and installation), the light over the cooker blew, Sky TV lost sound, MEO TV disappeared and my Notebook (mini laptop) lost its mojo! T'other Half has now remedied the latter three and just has to do the cooker light ... up in the hood vent so awkward ...



Full marks to The Man.

 

TV LICENCE? I seem to remember that... Out here in Ireland we of pension age or on benefits automatically get one free.. And as I don't have a TV..... NB they still give me a licence...One less bit paperwork to worry about..

 

Need a HUG. A HUGE hug. Cannot explain but need a hug....
