WD40


That should shift it


.............hmmmmm, I remove my loo seats, when cleaning

.............scrubber

And I do Ginns !!!! AND I am VERY sure that Cynthia does !! ;-) :-D

It seems to be the new seat which has a screw which doesn't screw !!

WD40 duly applied earlier. I can't remove the loo seat on this one - it's a major operation. Hopefully, the new one will be easier. My loo is spotless though. I is very perticilar about loos.

Had a nice evening out ............... it was a cocktail-y type thing, that we go to every year.

The company that gives it chooses a venue in town, takes it over for the evening, and there are free drinks, and finger food. The venue also usually has some feature to it ......... tonight it was at the city Art Gallery, where the major current exhibition is Matisse. So they had arranged for regular tours to be given for us to take, for free.

It all makes for an entertaining evening, and we usually meet some interesting people.


Tonight, we met the man who, as a 2nd year university student, wrote the very first computer programme that we used at the Botanical Garden to keep track of all our plants! That was back in 1970/71 :-0


We used that same programme for about the next 20 years, in various "improved" versions, before finally having a brand new programme written!

Thank you for breakfast Sylvs. :-D


It sounds a very entertaining evening all round. I love art galleries but rarely get the chance to go now. Do you remember the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool?

Sounds like an interesting evening Sylvs! - you do 'get around' don't you ??

Just having my lovely breakfast - thank you <3 <3, then I am going for a wander ;-)

Dea Xxx

OOOhhh Ginns !!!

That is not enough to sustain 'neither man nor beast' !!!!!
