It was a grey misty morning when I looked out of the window this morning. Normally that would be my cue to have a lie-in but today a plumber was coming round to look at our toilet. To me it looks like a modern style but as we discovered when trying to buy a replacement toilet seat, it's not around these days. When Peter eventually found a place where he could order a new D-shaped, close-coupled seat it would cost £70! Not much less than a whole replacement standard toilet. Today's visit was to look at the toilet and see if either they can find a more reasonably priced seat or quote for a complete replacement. Currently the seat has a temporary gaffer tape repair to prevent painful pinching.
The weather remained grey all morning so a banana loaf was in the oven by 9.00. It looked as if it would rain when I was heading to town and the library but I still wore my shorts and put a light mac in my back-pack. No rain and even a few blue patches in the afternoon. Later I baked some more chocolate and peanut butter cookies. I ran out of vanilla essence so used salted caramel flavouring instead. The cookies are okay but I think I'll stick to vanilla essence in the future.
Morning roses against a grey sky.
Lots of dark clouds this evening blowing southwards underneath the high cloud layer. I heard an owl hooting as I watered the plants in the back garden.
