Wha-a-a-a-t??? Where you been? What you on?
Got to think of a use for the cyanide ... expel the cyanide from apple pips, and you get the thingummy the goodies are after. The baddies are interested in the cyanide
Oh! Cyanide, according to the CDC, is used to make paper, textiles, and plastics. And I remember on my cousin's tobacco farm - they created giant balloons, two feet high or so, that enclosed each field in turn, and gassed the soiltook them a week to do each field. And no, I'm not making it up!

Morning! Two hours of paid work today, and that means .... cleaning
And this is week 43 well I must say, week 44 was a bit of a waste of time, between not using the early part of the week properly and then getting lurgified on the Thursday. Grrr. Still, better now, and I re-started the efforts on the back garden - my witchhazel tree has been sheddingall over the grass, so I have a second black bag of decomposing leaves :j
Done a phone call and an email, and I have to ring my business partner and open the post. A couple of years ago I adopted a Tim Ferriss thing of not opening the post every single day, and I may have taken it a little farso that needs doing. Need to do a blogpost too.
I'm also listening in the background to one of the last webinars from my professional organistion from a trauma conference where I paid the online rate, thats worked well, lots of hours of CPD at my convenience. (not bad - they ended by talking about International Talk Like A Pirate Day).
I had a splurge over the weekend on Amazon: five films and two seasons of tv (22 episodes each) for a grand total of £11.03 delivered.2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -

What will happen when you finish paid work - will the cleaning end :rotfl:.
In actual finance news, I've closed down the Santander 123 account that I opened but never used. Very nice Scouser said the confirmation will be with me in two days.
And I temporarily mislaid a credit card statement last month, so I overpaid way too much on purpose - now turns out I have a £58 credit balance
I've started so I'll finish ... got to catch up on this finance admin, I've also realised I'm totally confused about one particular set of money that I've divided into two :eek:

43 weeks? Time is moving on quickly
Pesky finance admin..... I have to keep a lot of notes to remind me what money is in what account, and it's easy to confuse yourself.
I'm sure it'd be easier to just have one account, but the interest would be measly, so I suppose the effort pays off.Early retired - 18th December 2014
