The most awkward bank holiday ever

[prunus]

It’s stopped raining so I am going to move a medium sized pile of stones a couple of hundred yards down the track.

It’s what she would have wanted.

 

[Epona]

I'm really quite hungover but I think we might pop to the pub later this afternoon/evening when OH wakes up.
I'm expecting our local to be business as usual, they've not done anything wrt her maj so far, not so much as a photo on display, and I'm not expecting them to suddenly go all "woe is us" today.

 

[Elpenor]

Mate has come over and helped me move a bookcase from one room to another and carry a sofabed frame upstairs.

We then have had a coffee in the garden.

I’m now shifting some less heavy furniture about

When are we allowed to visibly enjoy ourselves again?

Town centre is dead.Like OG lockdown dead. There'd better be somewhere I can get a pasty, is all I can say.

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

Drum and bass has been on for the past hour, with the patio doors open. Disrespectfully hanging out washing. THIS WILL CONTINUE

Update: there is nowhere to get a pasty.

I’ve just seen a family at the park with a camping table that has their snacks and is covered in flag bunting. They’ve got the radio on tuned in to the funeral. I wondered if it was some sort of compromise, some wanted to go to the park and others wanted to watch the funeral and this was the result

What's with all the "advertising is paused" breaks? If your not showing ads then why not continue showing the programme?

Cafe at 36 down Cowick Street - that's where I've just been!

Just taken the dogs for a walk. Hardly a man-made sound to be heard.

Blame the greed of Macron.

I figured junk food might be tricky to get today so got some frozen pizzas in last night. In fact it's time to put one in.

then they would need an even longer break between programmes

and doing it this way Shows Respect

Listened to a bit earlier, just for the history, acoustics blah. Rest of today's plans, making vege soup; hoovering; pub then seeing Evergrey. (Yes I have checked it's still open / on.)

Road traffic out front seems fairly normal for a Monday.

I'm watching it lol.

Had a bacon and egg sandwich, it's what she would have wanted.

If she was alive like. And hungry.

The Mounties always get their man. Their presence at his mum's funeral must be making The Duke of York sweat.

I also had a bacon and egg sandwich.

It’s like something something her spirit or something.

Brown sauce or red?

 

[8ball]

Brown sauce or red?

Neither.

 

[DaveCinzano]

Neither.

Are you sure?

 

[spitfire]

Having sauce would have been disrespectful.

 

[DaveCinzano]

Having sauce would have been disrespectful.

But that's where the spirit comes from

There's spice in the ketchup.

Bristol also totally shut. Makes no sense- stupid business sense. Everyone is off work (I worked the weekend so have today off otherwise I'd be at work) and would be buying stuff. There was one place open selling coffee on a road with around 10 coffee shops

If everyone wasn't off work they wouldn't be able to flock to all those cafés and shops that wouldn't be closed.

I blame the King!

 

[Orang Utan]

As a mark of respect, I shall spend Monday morning lying in a state

Just realised that by doing this, I inadvertently made a tribute to our William by having an epic lie-in (well 10am is epic for me)
Have got a disgusting real ale to raise to him for later too!

Yes, if you put weed or hash in it
