Was wondering why the double bed duvet I use on the single bed (extra coverage over the sides of the bed) was always getting out of shape/place in its cover. Reason: I’d been using a queen size cover and a smaller double quilt. Never had a chance.
Rectified now. I measured each spare cover, there’s one single, two double and a queen in the spares dept. In use on my double bed is a queen size lightweight duvet and cover. In the cupboard is a heavyweight winter queen size duvet and cover.
I’m trying out the new mattress, it’s quite good, very supportive but could use a softer, more compliant top. Tomorrow a suitable foam topper will arrive via Amazon. As no local bedding stores have the size and style I want.
Spent the last ten minutes reassembling a steel-framed single bed.
The mattress I bought online 15 days ago is finally out for delivery with a courier company.
That was a wild ride. Massive cramps in both legs simultaneously, affected area above & below the inside of the knees.
Unpleasant.
Bloody government forms. Attempted to upload seven multi-page PDFs as created by my flatbed scanner to one department’s website, only to get the generic error in red: “Something went wrong…”
After extracting the individual pages & renaming them I had 13 PDF which all uploaded without a glitch.
@matigo Just learned the train lost about 2 hours of time on both outbound and inbound legs because the lead loco on the outbound section suffered a major fault and had to go into limp-home mode. It could manage the reduced speed. No doubt they’ll be dipping into their spare parts bins to apply a fix.
@matigo The railway preservation group is based at the former workshop where all these locos were built. There were 53 built & 21 of them are preserved. Scrapped units would have parts available & they can make parts that are lacking.
