Three In One

 A slice of life and a pinch of impudence from Mrs Leftfoot, who took a day or two to react …

I've been sorting out the boys’ room, putting dead computer and accessories in the garage, and we have scores of old discs.   

Ancient (1990s) Hewlett Packard computer start ups, CD roms, computer games and music/films/magazines off the front of the Sunday papers.  

Don't have the time or the hwyl to work out which are knackered and which still work. 

Anyone know of anywhere that recycles them?
Sandy that sort of thing seems popular on Freecycle. If not I think they do it if you just take to the tip.
Mrs W bird scarers!
Bentonbag We have enough to scare all the birds on Tyneside!

Off sharp to take Fester and pick up a colleague for a meeting at the university farm with Prof. 
Car won't start, flat battery (Ferretfingers put an internal light on last week), 
fuming Fester. 
Phone AA.  
Phone Taxi.  
Phone university farm.   
Prof's secretary knows nothing of meeting as he hadn't told her about it so not in diary, besides which Prof has meetings all day in town.   
Panic over.   
Taxi comes and goes.   
What a start to a Monday!

Tidying the boys' room?  Ironing?  Are you all right?  Are you having a mid-life crisis?
1. Thunderthighs is too big for the high-sleeper so he's getting a new bed, so a space has to be created for it.
2. I like ironing - one of the few chores where you can see the results of you efforts - and you can watch tv and listen to the radio at the same time and still feel virtuous - and standing up and moving arms about could be classed as exercise.
3. That's not for me to say.
4. Only if I live to be 108!
Mrs Leftfoot Just checking....... !!! And being cheeky!!! Xx
