I did a check of my prescription meds box. Got a bit of a shock at how low I am on some stuff, so I have an order in now. and reminders for the future set up.

I've bought another T7 to use Time Machine on. I do keep some notes in the On My Mac section, not in the cloud. I figured out how to back that up separately, you have to copy a folder ~/Library/Group Containers/group.com.apple.notes. Also figured out how to find it in a Time Machine backup. You hav...

I'm on mac. I don't clone it any more I just try to remember to copy anything important to another disc. I do use Time Machine so I suppose I'm covered by that. That's the only app I have that figures out what to update. All my notes and spreadsheets are in iCloud, but I took my documents out of it...

Enjoyed some homemade bacon last night. I used the River Cottage curing and smoking book and the net to learn the basics so I can cure meat in the freezer if we start to get power problems. I have been practising on belly pork to make streaky bacon and am shocked at how easy this is. Just looked up...

Upping the speed on my house sort out because I have a house inspection on Monday. I suspect my contract won't get renewed unless it's up to scratch.

I had thought I could do each room in a few hours, but I didn't take into account my crap back and sore hips, so I have to take it slower than planned. But...

I've been keeping an eye on local town council meeting minutes as they are my landlord, and it seems the letting agent will be putting the fees up this year. So this week I'm starting to keep an eye out for rental properties and will start bits and pieces of not 'packing' as such, but more 'consolid...

I was very lucky and got far more booze and chocolate than I know what to do with :lol: I asked for, and got, an encyclopaedia of herbal medicine from my brother and his family (along with nice socks and chocolate :mrgreen: ) One very nice, and unexpected, 'present' was my nieces not realising I mad...

I'm off to Ikea in a bit - for two reasons. First, there's some bits and pieces I have my eye on, not least the good tea lights they do. Second, I've never driven on a motorway before (only passed my test about a week before covid locked everything down) as I don't live near one. I figure the roads ...
