Tell us something TRIVIAL about your life

[Paulo]

Ever since I was able to get back running in March, I have used saturday morning jogs as my long run for the week. They have been getting progressively longer, for no particular reason other than they just have.

Today the route I have planned turns out to be just over 21km. That's a half marathon distance, so now I am wondering if I can enter one of the virtual half marathons and tick 2 boxes whilst I am at it

Not run this distance before. Last week was 18.2km and if someone told me to turn around at the end of that at run back to the start, I wouldnt have been happy but feel that I could have done it.

Ended up doing just over 23km.

1hr 46min for the half marathon. 1 min slower than planned but this was not planned as a fast run

Doing some electrical mods on the campervan and can't find my blowtorch. I knew it was in my box of plumbing bits because that was the last job I used it, but no. How many times do you know exactly where something is, until you look there. Check all five out buildings, nothing!
Pop to local cheap shop and cough up £12.99 for another one.
Start heating something and remember that the last time I used the blowtorch I burnt myself. That triggered the memory of the last job, which was not plumbing!
Next memory surfaces... where I put the bloody thing when I finished with it!

I did a similar thing only with a lump hammer. My son is now building up his set of tools as a result of my forgetting where I left things!

The cat who came in today weighs 9kg and it's all muscle! He's a tabby ex feral called Trevor and he's absolutely terrifying!

So now you know how we all feel.

Pretty sure a clipboard and dustbin wouldn't hold me back for long.

They only work if you subscribe to invisible sky fairies

Flamethrower?

How quickly can you set it up and how angry am I? I have played paintball twice and twice got very angry indeed, it is still spoken of in hushed voices in Essex.

You want to borrow one of the lump hammers from the previous post.

Sadly is wrong as it doesn't take account of the clock change.

My oil tank makes a "bong" noise periodically, I'm assuming the vent is blocked. Checking the manufacturers website it supposed to have a 2" valve, but I can't for the life of me find it and the website's no use. Anyone have any experience with a Deso bunded tank and could point me in the right direction?

Is it sitting in the sun?

It's wedged between the garage and a fence, but is in direct sunlight for a couple of hours a day.
