Read of the newspaper
Donald Sutherland, is a Canadian actor whose film career spans more than seven decades. Sutherland has been nominated for eight Golden Globe Awards, winning two for his performances in the television films Citizen X (1995) and Path to War (2002); the former also earned him a Primetime Emmy Award. An inductee of the Hollywood Walk of Fame and Canadian Walk of Fame, he also received a Canadian Academy Award for the drama film Threshold (1981).

In 2017, he received an Academy Honorary Award for his contributions to cinema
He is 85 years old ๐ŸŽˆ
Spencer Davis (born Spencer David Nelson Davies, ) is a Welsh musician and multi-instrumentalist, and the founder of the 1960s beat band The Spencer Davis Group. "Davies" is pronounced "Davis" in Wales, but would be misread as "Davees" in the US, so professionally he dropped the E from the spelling to avoid confusion.He is 81 years old๐ŸŽˆ 
 
After that.
Load up dishwasher.
Tidy up the kitchen, moved on the living room.
Emptied bins.
Finally sat down down to write yesterday's blog post.....
I made a firm decision to tell the seller either get me another pedal or give me a full refund in 7 days, or we will go to the Small Claims Court.
I asked Gumtree to give me her surname.
But as normal no help whatsoever  from them again.
I sent the seller a message about the situation.
As normal I didn't hear nothing.....
Lunch time↓

 Then I got down to writing two blog posts.
I was waiting for a delivery....
When hubby went outside,
He found it, in this state↓ 
 The bottle of Elderflower had broken in the box and ruined some of the items instead↓
 The packet of batteries had fell out in the road and had been run over....
The company wasn't happy that the box was delivered like that. I got a partial refund on the items that was ruined.
Speaking of orders.
My 6 bottles of Zoflora I ordered last week, was delivered up the road.My hubby has been trying to contact any of the people living in the flats by pressing the front door bell.
No one has answered the door :(
It looks like they will be sent back out again by someone else instead of Hermes!
