If you don’t put the car in the garage, you won’t have to worry about it catching fire.

While there's logic in there... I actually want one to specifically park/keep my car inside it  
I don't want a garage for clutter and hoarding... I want it to keep the car out of sight.

Covid 19 advice has been updated. Anyone who has returned from mainland China  in the past 14 days (not just Hubei) and who has a cough, temperature or difficulty breathing needs to phone NHS111.

I like that second house, looks clean, tidy and in good order.

........and anyway, aren’t garages built with fireproof linings or something? 

Are there any statistics on cars catching fire in garages?

It should be very easy to add an extra layer of plasterboard to the garage to make it super fire resistant. Plus a couple of radio linked fire detectors.

Even though they may not be ideal for PN, she is really good at spotting great houses.

Hello. Do you go back to sleep now, or are you awake for the rest of the day?

I’m awake now, for the duration.
If I wake before 4am, I usually doze off again for a while, but I like to wake between 4 and 4.30.

It started some years ago when I was working, (self-employed) , quite long hours, and this time of the morning was the only time I really had to myself. I like being awake before dawn.

I go to sleep in the evenings relatively early, as a result, usually between 9 and 10pm, although it can vary a bit.

Bother bother bother. 

I had planned to do another very early supermarket top-up, going to one that opens at 7:00, and then one that opens at 8:00, especially as there was no rain forecast for this morning, and I’m not feeling too bad!
However, for the first time this year, there has been a rock hard frost and the car is solid. It looks like frozen rain.
 I just cannot face spending half an hour defrosting it, so I have aborted the shopping.
No point in going later, as there will be rush hour traffic plus loads more people about.

Tomorrow, rain is forecast from very early on.
Bother bother bother.


On another note, I thought I would try taking CBD oil, as there are two things it’s said to be good for that interested me.
Ok, it could just all be the latest hyped-up thing, but I thought I might as well try it. I checked that there were no contraindications for me. Ordered it from Netherlands & Shoeshop Monday afternoon and it arrived yesterday midday. Brilliant delivery.
Anyway, it could take a week or two to produce any effect, if it is going to, so we will see.

Has anyone else tried it, or know someone who has?
