So yes, we can multitask. However, it doesn't mean we don't make mistakes and get a little confused! I almost combed Jess' hair with a bar of KitKat, and almost...ALMOST ate the comb thinking it was a KitKat
Yeah....... six things at once was a bridge too far............... I sure wish you would tell Judy how to update her tablet thingy. All she can do on it is play games that her daughter and grandson put on the thing. Judy can't even connect it to the wi-fi I use for my lap-top.

She says, "can't you do it for me David?" She's got to be joking....... I have enough on my plate just getting here on city-data!! Although, I think she has enough on her plate already. Judy has three fish tanks now, and has to clean them every morning, or the fish complain.

I watched her virtually wiping the tanks clean....... Judy complains about doing this. I said, "Judy, the tanks and the fish aren't real......" She said, "yes, but they don't know that do they?".........

Did you remember to put your clocks back one hour Zola?......... I have eaten my usual breakfast. I convince myself it's good for me.....almost.

Two slices of toast. One with cheddar cheese, smoked salmon, coleslaw and tomato, the other with crunchy peanut butter, coleslaw, and tomato.

I have eaten this same thing for breakfast for years. It never varies unless we are on holiday. This time next week, we will be in Benidorm in Spain. I will eat a full English while we are there. Sure hope they do black pudding............

Morning, Dave (and everyone else out there in CD land)

Yes, we changed all the clocks in the Zola household!

In fact Jess and I played a game. There are 14 manual clocks on my property, that don't automatically update themselves. I bet Jess she had to find and change all of them (obviously I didn't tell her what or where they are other than the quantity)

The prize - If she found them all, I would buy dinner this afternoon; if she lost she would suffer the ignominy of being chased around the house to avoid being tickled to death (she is extremely ticklish) ... and then she would also pay for dinner!

Guess who won?

As for breakfast: we just went for something simple: scrambled egg on toast for me; poached egg on toast for J. (we didn't want to spoil dinner later today: a dinner that J will be paying for, and therefore I will be having an expensive dessert too, ha!)

Hope you enjoy Spain next week. I quite fancy another holiday abroad. But can't afford it at present.

Have a fab day everyone!

14 manual clocks?..... Gordon Bennett Zola...... why do you have so many clocks? I think we have four. One in our bedroom, which is a radio thingy as well. Judy's mum's bedroom clock, and two downstairs. You've reminded me...... I need to change the time on my genuine fake 'Ice' watch that I bought in Tunisia!

Yeah, we'll enjoy our break in Benidorm. Can't go wrong there, as long as we keep away from the usual idiot suspects............. We'll get ourselves to the old town at night, and enjoy some wine and tapas.

I'm still umming and arring whether to take my lap top or not. I like to get my c-d fix while away. I haven't taken it with me the last few holidays, and after a few days I develop c-d withdrawal symptoms. I just can't be bothered carrying the thing. I notice while we are there, everybody else just uses their phones, or tablet thingies. I don't own a cell phone, and wouldn't know how to use one anyways! Sadly, we don't know how to make Judy's tablet work as anything beyond games. Judy has noted the hotel has all British telly stations. I have had to tell her, we are NOT watching any of her soaps while away!!..............

We have a clock in the car. It will have to remain wrong for six months...... no idea how to change it!.... The last car we had for two years, and Judy didn't know how to turn the headlights on. I was stood there at 3am one morning, when we were setting off for the airport. It took ten minutes for Judy to figure out the lights.......... Yes, I am thinking it may be getting towards the time to take her keys off her.........

Cooker clock? Microwave clock? Wow...... you have some real fancy kitchen equipment Zola......
