Awake for the bin men at 7.40 am. I think that's the earliest they have come, although we are told to expect them any time from 7 o'clock. Unlike some bin men I read about on other blogs, they are not evil! Berries aplenty still on bushes, seen when I tok Bella for her morning stroll.
Bin men not got here yet, although their advance party have been through.
Almost like a country lane, which it would have been not too long ago. Long term residents have told us how they used to play in the orchards that once covered this hillside.

I finally got the replacement for my old 1st Generation iPod nano today. Having sent off a 4 Gb one because of possible battery fault, I got a brand new 6th Gen 8 Gb model with extra functionality and much smaller size (watch shown for scale, although I found the iPod has a load of options for watch displays, including one with sweeping second hand...).
Carried on taking down the curtains in the van today. Found this very sleepy bee in there - and another one found Su a little later!
Not very practically at all, went out for lunch without my money. So we returned home instead, and I continued working on hanging my first ever door - after all these years!. It's up, but needs some fine tuning...
Weather seems to be set foul for a few days, so we may not be jaunting off for a few days yet. New Year's Day Party music to sort out, and a few other practical tasks to work at...
