Do you ever have a day when you do....

Sod all?
Got up this morning (late) looked out the window, it's freezing cold and foggy, and there was absolutely nothing to do that I couldn't put off till tomorrow, so, I have had one of the least productive days I can ever remember having...and it feels GOOD.

Yes. But a fuck all to do day usually involves me making stuff. Yesterday I made a set of fairy lights....I kid you not.

Are you not sick of seeing fairy lights? they have only just been packed away.

I dont count a day doing arty stuff as a day doing nothing....you have to channel your inner lazy slob and do nothing more productive than clean your teeth (I managed that about 2pm) to claim you have done absolutely sod all all day.

Talking about Fairy lights, a few Months ago I put a string of Fairy lights along the top of my fence, mainly for the kids benefit . A week or two back I switched on my CCTV and watched my cat pull them off and walk down the lane trailing them behind him. Pity they'd pulled off the Solar thing, it would have looked amazing if they were still shining .

I wish you could post pics, then we could see this cat you are always talking about.

I wish I could, I'll try giving you a description. Imagine a smaller version of a Black Panther. With one ear shredded, A tail bent about 4 inches from the end, a 1inch scar just above his left eye, and an angry disposition. He will attack any Dog even German Shepherds. But he will welcome me home with Tail erect and little cries, and will fight anyone who tries to stop him coming in my Bed, His name is Scuff !

PS, I found a little Female Kitten in my shed months ago, I thought he would attack it, wonder of wonders he "looked after it" and would let it feed from his dish, her name was mitzie. Went out one night and never came back.

No. I love fairy lights. I have them up all year round.

Same here, I'm seriously stressed because I recently moved and I can't get my jalapeno pepper lights to work. Got a new string on order though.

As far as doing fuck-all all day, well, I'm currently unemployed by choice and I find myself busier than when I had a job some days But a lot of that has just been the move.

I feel your pain.  My old red cherry lights kicked the bucket after years of service.   Twatting things.

So now I've got peonies up. They look much nicer in the flesh. Camera doesn't catch the lovely light they give out.

I stay on the sofa going “Buuuuuuuuuurgerrrrrr” and watch back to back episodes of Judge Judy.

I love Judge Judy

I watch her from around 7 to 8pm some evenings.
She is great, and probably earns more in her 70,s than she did throughout her life.

Awww...he should be called Rocky.
He obviously loves you as much as you love him.....not that cats will ever admit it.

Got up this morning (late), looked out of the window....bright and sunny and nothing specific to do. But there, on my lawn, was brace of cock pheasants using my garden as a refuge from one of the neighbouring farmer's (very lucrative) pheasant shoots. Free dinner? Nah, too much trouble to unlock the gun cabinet.

Bloody hell! I must be getting old................

Good on you Fred, those birdies live to dodge bullets for another day.
I paid the price for lolling about doing sweet sod all yesterday, I have been running around playing catch up today trying to make up for it.

The truth is, of course, that while I am very adapt at shooting the buggers, I am absolutely useless at plucking, gutting and cooking them.

Plus...the new lady in my life is a bloody veggie!

She's so sharp. You don't ever get one over on her.

He was good on Strictly come dancing.

For some reason I always think Didge would look like him.
