I’m rather disappointed that the advert doesn’t state FIND ANOTHER because you’ve got no chance. @sniffpetrol.com

My Mum (83) bought our kids advent calendars, bless her.
Has been scammed by FB bollocks.
But, HO-LEE-SHEEET, one of the windows hasn’t had made us laugh. This was an “equestrian” themed gift, apparently. 😂🤣😆

Our original Ranger (4 years, should have been 3 but pandemic) has just been unseated by this. I’ve done many more miles in cars but this one has stayed longest (and I’ve no plans to change any time soon)

I *think* that, on closer inspection, you’ll see that I was *considerably* more stuck than you (having sunk the trailer up to the axles and thus restricting my ability to tip), hence the tractor.
I was promised that the access to tip my manure was “firm”.
It was not.

It also gave me one of my most memorable ever drives from Dufftown to Rhynie in the snow one day. I felt like (a very slow) Colin McRae. Was never driving in a straight line 🤣
Very cool thing.

It’s cold and damp. Why should you open your windows and let your curtains flap around? 😆

Well today has just been mental/awful/stressful, possibly all of the above. I’ve earned this.

Thus rendering the Co-op the least accessible shop ever known to man. When I was a local I rarely drove down the high street, I used the bypass 🤣 (this also avoiding the solitary set of traffic lights)

Also today: 4x4 FTW! BIL had to fetch these gazebos and got stuck in the snow before even loading the trailer. Unstuck the trailer, loaded up and drove out then hauled out his van. Happy days.

Any MS flight sim players out there? Need advice for a yoke for the boys Xmas. He’s 11 so nothing too £££ please! He has a Logitech wheel so thinking their yoke set might be decent, too? #pc #gaming #flightsim

10 years ago, out of the blue, someone on Twitter came out of the blue to ask me if I was the chap that bought his 306 Rallye - around a decade earlier.
I miss old Twitter for stuff like that.

It is very pretty out there, the heavy, wet snow in now almost weight bearing. But, having been out in it tending horses this morning, I can confirm it’s horrible to do that task in.
And also, keeping horses as pets is a fundamentally moronic idea.

We all know that bean to cup machines are expensive. But this? This is, for want of a better word, ridiculous.
As in cheap. As in… you’ll save £1k over the proprietary brands.
Just like cars, European coffee machine manufacturers have a nemesis from the Far East.

Snow nights are wonderful. The light reflects off everything. Also a sure sign that the snow is away to start falling again.
