Morning all from a bright and sunny rural France. I needed a new spark plug for my rotovator, so tried to get the old one out, breaking it into three pieces in the process. It was only when I released the final bit that I realised that I had been using the wrong spanner. I then found out that I didn't have one that was the right size. Went down to the local centre where they have everything in the building, gardening and farming line, taking my bits of spark plug. Spoke to the motor man there who found a new plug, but didn't have a spanner he could sell me. Instead he raided his own tool box and lent me the correct one. As he didn't use it that often he said he would like it back by the end of the month, but he really didn't have a clue I suspect who he had lent it to. He will get it back with many thanks for the service, and I will go elsewhere to buy my own for future use.
 
Morning all. The sun is up, the sky is blue. A warm day ahead and I have to go to the big city. Not my idea of how to spend such a lovely day. I know when I have to go somewhere as I remember to put my watch on. Normally time does not matter. Have a good day whatever you plan to do.

Got out today.. Very mild oop north.. Enjoy today folks.. You never know what tomorrow brings...
I have a raft of wierd and wonderful tests ahead to try and identify what happened and try and ensure it does not happen again.. More meds than I would wish on anyone.. Looking forward to some speech and language therapy to help me sort out out my speech. I sound alright to others but in my brain I lose,merge and miss pronounce words.. All very weird.. Probably the biggest surprise is the shock of it all.. I was actually driving in limoges when it happened and only my speech was affected thankfully.. I blame the bumps on the Panazol bridge [emoji6]
Anyway have a good one.... [emoji106]

Morning all. Bright and sunny with a temperature of 20°C forecast for this afternoon. The cranes really are in full migration mode at present with hundreds passing overhead several times a day. Yesterday they took a break and came down for an hour in the field behind my daughter's house. It is only when you see them on the ground close up that you realise just how large they are.
