We have water going down the back of the sink and it's running down the wall behind into the cupboard below .This is very complicated :)
The sink is only a gap of about an inch and half from the tiled splashback and has been set into a beechwood worktop .Over time this has started to go all grotty ,the grout is all nasty and any water that gets spashed around is running down the back of it and under the lip of the sink into the cupboard .
This usually only happens when Mr S is doing any washing up .I've tested it with a glass of water :)
My son is going to fit a new sink and worktop for us ....but ..
he's full of good intentions but we may have to wait a while ....
In the meantime is there some sort of waterproof tape that I can buy to shore up this gap pro tem.

Morning all
Bit cloudy today but very warm .Yesterday was glorious .
Hope all are well.
Shaney, I love your Avatar. Jno I remember the other Woodstock as well.....
About 35 years ago I used to live up the road from Glastonbury, in Wells. We never thought anything much about the festival except to be annoyed about the mess that was left everywhere by the hippies. Now that does make me old.
A'noon all..it's glorious here again...and oh so quiet, everyone's gone out. Think I'll go back outside while I can hear myself read.
Hello. curses and imprecations, I have got a stomach bug. Am now thoroughly empty and feeling wrung out.

Lol Woofy ...I think Mr S is a bit disappointed with the german teams performance yesterday.He turned into his Dad while watching it using exactly the same phrases he used to use when watching football !
"Stop fumbling with the ball ".."Pass ,you fool ,pass" ...interspersed with other german words I cannot repeat :)
Hope your tum soon settles .
It's got out lovely here now .
Shaney at least Germany are still in the game.

Went to another car boot, got some calming Feliway for mousey £3 compared to £29 in the vets.

bought another small emergency phone as mine won't connect without wifi and it doesn't work either, so back to Tesco mañana.

Very warm here today, just relaxing for the rest of the day. Think sister should have a pool put in.

We were driving along the seafront and a tall, dark handsome and young man blew me a kiss, made my day. He should have gone to Specsavers.
When is Corrie on next, I haven't seen it since the 18th which was wed.

Tomorrow Neti ..7.30 according to the Radio Times .
I have been reminded that we are going to see King Lear at the NT tomorrow because there were some cheap tickets going.I may need some good cushions. I like Simon Russell Beale but...

Carl Reiner (who wrote the best Steve Martin films and was the boss in the Dick Van Dyke Show way back when) used to do a routine called the 1000-year-old man in which he related all the calamitous decisiions he'd made in his long life. One was deciding not to put money into Lear because who would want to see it, all those woman squabbling, it would be too much like staying at home. So he put all his money into Coriolanus instead. I sort of know how he feels, though.
all off to the beach again?
Saran wrap!

I'm not fond of Lear either, or hard seats.
There's a good sitcom on sky at the mo called Modern Family. Its the old many generations sitcom framework revisited but updated. Dad senior has two adult kids, a gay son and a go-getter daughter. The gay son has a partner and an adopted vietnamese daughter, the daughter has a house husband who is a realtor. Dad is remarried to a beautiful Colombian woman who is the same age (ish) as his kids and who has a teenaged son.
It has no huge drama but in its way, its quite Shakesperian I think.
Another lovely day here and my stomach is behaving hoorah!

Morning all...I'm not at the beach, it's a bit longer than a three minute walk, and I might need something waterproof later on, they've forecast rain/storms. Well the garden could do with a drink.
It's good you've settled down woofy, it's awful isn't it? My insides have been bloated and noisy again so I'm hoping I'm not in for another eruption.

I don't think I've seen any Shakespeare in the flesh since I was at school but I've often felt as though I was appearing in some tragedy.
My posts are not appearing!

So again

Good morning just rushing through on way to shops

Keep getting cramp in legs and toes, it's very painful.

Off to theatre tonight to see Duty Free.

Have a good day.

Thunderstorms forecast here too so I won't be going to the beach.
I think we must be passing this dodgy tum around like a football .
Accu is promising us T-storms but the BBC is not. I can never quite remember which one of them has the rights to our garden.
hello again, slept the morning away and feel better for it, shower now I think

No storms here as yet .Just watched Murray win .
Trying to have a siesta here, it is so warm. Had to exchange my new phone for a Sony xperia, but it's so small compared to the one I have, Im all fingers and thumbs on it.
we are due the storms later in the week. Its very hot and heavy here. I have got the heavy weather headache.
