Recently I applied to change our address for the voting register.
Previously I had done it over the phone, now you have to do it on line........what happens if you do not have access to a lap top or tablet? Many people of our age are not computer savvy, how do they register? The same thing occurred to me when I was dealing with the paperwork for our recent move.........Everything seems to be done more and more 'on line'. We even have to contact our GP on line. It really irritates me.
Yesterday was a sunny morning, I needed to go to Lidl for a couple of things, I decided to take DB with me, he stayed in the car whilst I was in the shop. We then took a ride on the new road round the town. I hasd changed the bed and decided to wash the linen, I hung it out, the wind had got up, the whirly burled round good style. It was soon dry so folded and in the bag for the ironing lady when she comes on Monday.
This afternoon I changed the foot on the sewing machine and turned the fabric that was cut off the curtains in the sitting room into two draught excluders for the sitting room and hall doors. I used the filling from an old pillow to fill them. I have enough fabric left to make a long one for the doors into the conservatory. I just need to sort through and see if I can find another pillow that's past it's best.
Supper tonight, fish pie for DB, sweet and sour chicken for me.
You and DB may already be asleep as I write this because it's nearly 5:30p here. Sorry to be tardy!
ReplyDeleteI so agree with how annoying it is to have to do so much on-line at our stage of life! Last week I questioned the amount on a bill and wanted them to send a meter reader out to verify our usage and was told I had to start a "dispute" before they'd send anyone out to check the meter and would not give me the phone number to reach the dispute department. I would have to call back to her office and someone there would transfer my call to the dispute office. How nuts is that?
Well done in shortening your new curtains and planning to make pillow covers from the extra fabric!
Today was chilly with wind and 12*C and the low tonight is expected to be 3.0*C.
Stay cozy, my friend!
Hugs!
