    Path isn't finished yet, pork pie, baked spud, tomatoes, cheese and Branston pickle for lunch followed by a slice of raspberry sponge and a hot choc then fell asleep to be awakened by my games console sliding off my knee and landing with a thump on the carpet. Thinking about cutting the grass before it rains.

    PS I need a boot extractor is that the correct term! as pulling my wellibobs off is a bit of a struggle at my age

    Do you mean one of these Mike

    I always wondered you scrape your boot on it to remove dirt then stand on it with the other foot and remove the boot, but then your putting a clean sock on a dirty part to pull the other boot off!
