Got to walk to the post office to send something back to Amazon. This is now ridiculously easy - I don't have to print a label, pay anything, don't even need a box. And it was my fault, not theirs - nothing wrong with what I'm sending back. Well, I didn't even open it.

Yes, meds are a good idea to have in BOBs. Also in a written evacuation plan. I use one of those plastic meds dispenser with seven little compartments so I know where I'm up to, plus I have some in my bedside drawer, both of which I would grab.

Keeping my room at a nice steady temperature now. Nearly had to dig out my summer duvet the other day. Which would be annoying, since I just got this one for the spring. It's only 1.5 tog, but was borderline warm a couple of nights when we had those very warm days.

Think I need to get the battery replaced on the car. It's one of these eco stop/start jobbies. Even though it's warm and had some longish runs, the stop/start isn't kicking in.

Had it serviced a couple of months back and the diagnostics flagged it as getting old. Unfortunately Fords are a bit picky on the type of battery you use plus the BMS needs to be reset/recalibrated, so looking like a dealership job... :(

Bar code vanished from email! But turning data on fixed it. Good job I thought of that. However post office was shut - didn't realise it is a bank holiday.
