What the feck have you done today?

Also your body's ability to produce vitamin D from sunlight and your diet diminishes as you age. So yes, you probably do need more sunlight/Vit D-rich foods/sups than you used to.

also, vitamin D3(with k2) is fat soluble, so if your carrying a bit of extra weight you would likely need to up your dosage.
 
I remember as a new boy in senior school upsetting a sixth form girl. As I turned away, she launched a hefty kick at me but she was wearing winklepicker shoes. She got me right on the starfish and I swear blind, it felt like she nearly punctured my lungs.

I never dated or upset a girl wearing winklepickers ever again
Sounds like a case for :-

 
Thought for Today

Today, I took off yesterday and today to change the rear brakes on my car. I’ve been meaning to do it for ages, and have been using a works pool car, but the aircon on that went the other week whereas on mine it’s proper arctic.
Anyway, it’s been sat and neglected for a while, which goes against my beliefs that machines need using to keep working well.
So yesterday, the fecking battery was flat as a fluke, so got a charger - by the time it was charged, I couldn’t be arsed starting, so after a leisurely morning (90 minutes dealing with emails in the office and a couple of coffees, I set to about 10.30.
I finished one side just before 5pm! Clips, bolts grommets all giving me grief - two trips out to get tools (the rear caliper pistons need screwing back in whereas the fronts don’t and can’t be pushed in using a C-clamp) and don’t believe it if a tool says it “fits nearly all Jaguar models” because it won’t fit yours!

Over 90 minutes getting one bolt through a rubber grommety thing so the calliper would go back on the carrier. 6 hours doing one side and tomorrow I’m going to be aching like a bastard. I’ll do the other side on Sunday. Yay. It was over 30c

I’ve learned three things from it;

1. Don’t leave a vehicle of machine standing unused, even for a couple of months - everything is worse / harder when you come back to them.
2. I’m not cut out for this shit…give me a knife and a body in a temperature controlled environment any day! I know what I’m doing there.
3. Any potential job satisfaction in this area for me, is less than picking a car up from the mechanic’s and feeling the difference without all the agro.

And I’ve got to do it all again on Sunday…shit!

No idea what you guys are talking about. Sometimes I have other things in the kitchen. Last week it was a young gentleman who may or may not be back. I told him he needs a bike and now am not sure if that was taken seriously. It was just a flippant remark. I did send him off for a test ride on the DX, which he was well impressed with, so if he starts frothing a bit I may sell it to him…😁
 
We have some lovely woodpeckers around us and I’ve grown very found of a particular green woodpecker that’s been unsuccessful in making his home in the electricity pole. He (or she) is often seen pulling grubs out of the grass or just generally ‘chirping’. Well the oh found him dead on the grass this morning :(.

The garden is rather quiet now

Especially as the swallows have fledged. Although they are still around

You can tell if a bird's been poisoned because it doesn't get scavenged by foxes or rats etc - they're left there untouched.
