another Pendraken order turned up this week.....sigh  :P
I was grumping yesterday because I received a Pendraken order (usually a great cause of celebration and hossanahs) but it was all wrong. These were not the Royal Horse Artillery I was looking for.




Then I realised it was an order that I had forgotten I'd placed.

Here's some footage of SAAB Drakkens (I think).

Techno will like it because the singer is a very young Agneta Faltskog who later found fame with ABBA. 



What was I watching this? I'm doing a company quiz and was looking for songs sung in other languages.

Kpop stars seem to like to try and sing in Portuguese. Who knew? Well I do now.

Some days, the trinkets we uncover are less valuable than others.

Just quoted a few hundred quid to repair a leak in a gas boiler in a house we'll be moving out of in a couple of months  :'(

It's not even that the heat isn't working (yet), just leaking....talk about bad timing.

This boiler has been nothing but trouble over the years! Was only serviced a few months ago too.


And just got a scam caller "from HMRC"....  sigh

Yet another scam Amazon caller today >:(.
