Many thanks.

I don't :lol:

I'm too old and bold to own one now.

I'll be the dry and comfy one. :mrgreen:
Two is one and one is none, but three is even better.

Took Yorkshire Andys advice and took off to Lidl yesterday and grabbed the solar security lights they had in ..plus a load of batteries they had on cheap with a good date on them so thanks for that Andy

Was going to sort the solar security lights out today but the torrential rain and gale force winds hit us here for about 5 hours 😂
I'll leave it till tomorrow ....

Was that the £20 jobbies?

I grabbed a spare today to put on the shelf I've a few of the older versions getting on 5 years old so a spare never goes a miss eventually the batteries give up and a replacement battery black costs £15 ISH Vs £20 for a full light / panel

Oh we've got a pita moggy like that she chews through the big cardboard 50x or bigger pouches box then sets about the pouches.. so we put them in the big draw under the bathroom sink the little basket soon discovered she could get up the service gap from the base where the pipes run to access the draw from behind drags loads out then gorges then pukes up a mixture of mylar and cat food usually on the kids beds :evil:

I'm sure the cat does understand you but like those police traffic cop programs it's following the standard "no understand English" when in trouble.. you could always try language line or ask Alexa to "translate get down off the worktop and leave the chicken I'm defrosting alone you flea ridden moggy into polish " :lol:

Our Beeglie is a Portugese national. she doesn't understand English either. Funny how the word Dreamies got through the language barrier though..
