turpsWe were supposed to be getting our new smart meters for the gas and electric put in today. The electric meter is behind the tumbler so I had to take shelf off above that and remove everything on it -- which was a lot as it's such handy storage, and pull out the tumbler itself. The meter man arrived, came in, went outside to look at the electric meter and it turns out we can't have a smart meter as they need wood or plastic meter cupboard doors and ours is metal. So we need to get that replaced before things can be changed. Silver lining I guess, I've been decluttering lately and managed to sort everything out from on top of the tumbler, so that's good.
Other good things. My opposite neighbours have a new pug puppy and have called it Pugsy Malone, which I think it's a brilliant name for a pug.
It was my fannish niece's birthday two days ago. She turned 17 so I'd say I can't call her baby fannish niece any more, but Corey is 23 and I still call him the kidlet, so I guess she'll be keeping her name.
I had a great mail day, thank youfrausorge for the fantastic postcard and teigh_corvus for the gorgeous star, I posted it on my insta so if you want to look at T's work it's here. Thank you for the card and message too. I know it's a total coincidence timing-wise but it was the perfect thing to read yesterday ♥
Tonight it's the last of the theatre shows we booked a while back, so in a few hours, we're off to see The Book of Mormon. It's supposed to be very funny, though very offensive and I'm looking forward to seeing it.

What a lovely heart you got from T!
I hope you enjoyed the show!
PS Pugsy Malone is a fabulous name for a pug!

Especially so as the box itself is wood inside, so surely those radio waves could go backwards and out of the house if metal was an issue? Honestly, I don't think they knew what they were talking about.
Yep, she'll always be a baby fan to me. Probably even when she's old enough to be shaking her own stick at the newbies *g*
Pugsy Malone is the best name for a pug. I love it a lot.
