Even though I was awake quite early, it was 10:30 before I heaved myself out of my stinking pit, and quite right too. After breakfast I watched a DVD or two and then I had some work to do. <\/p>\n<p>Now I know that I have said that I don&#8217;t work on Bank Holidays but there were one or two things that needed attention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Firstly<\/strong>, I&#8217;ll very shortly be rewiring the electricity in the barn. And for that I need a new control panel on the southern wall. In order to make it work properly, I need to make a list of the items that are going to be wired into it. That&#8217;s not the sort of thing that one can do <em>\u00e0 l&#8217;improviste<\/em>.<br \/>\n<strong>Secondly<\/strong>, my rock radio programme is getting a little out of hand. I&#8217;ve no idea what music I&#8217;ve been playing and, quite by accident, I discovered that I&#8217;d played the same track twice in three months and that&#8217;s not really on. Furthermore, I&#8217;m not on line all that often and I need access to band biographies and the like. I&#8217;ve already researched tons of stuff and so with all of this, it seems to be to be a good idea to create a database with all of the information on it so that it&#8217;s immediately to hand.<\/p>\n<p>This evening I&#8217;ve had even more exciting things to do. I lit a fire and I cooked my Christmas dinner. Everything went according to plan and was cooked to perfection, even the sprouts (not overcooked) and the roast potatoes (done to perfection)<\/p>\n<p>And it tasted magnificent too &#8211; but not as good as Liz Messenger&#8217;s cake.<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-2675 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='2675' data-nonce='6e5e010b31' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' \/><span class='lc-2675 lc'>+2<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-2675 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='2675' data-nonce='6e5e010b31' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Unlike' \/><span class='unlc-2675 unlc'>-7<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-2675 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; to cut into, isn&#8217;t it?
