Tomorrow, breakfast will be overnight oats. Just fill an appropriate sized container with

• oats
• cocos
• frozen red fruits
• yogurt

and that sits in the fridge for a night. Usually one add some milk, but I found the frozen fruits to releases enough moisture.

My wife doesn't understand how I can see it as food, let alone eat it, but I love oats. My daughter transports oatly (oat milk) and sometimes brings me some if the factory has a damaged pallet. I only use it to cook my oats (damn, you don't need to add sugar with that stuff!!) and a combination of additives like raisin and/or seeds and/or nuts and/or apple. and cinnamon. you gotta have cinnamon.

I replaced my water installation some weeks ago. The copper pipes did not show build-up. I cut the pipe at the hydrofor to make it easier getting it up the stairs that was another story. I think it's 45 years of build-up

This week I've been I rebuilding my main water installation and also did some procrastination (i'm good at that!) on the boring task of isolating warm water pipes, but now it's done.

The water heater started leaking, the hydrofor started leaking, the pipes had several dead ends, no of it fastened to the walls, and what's not clear in the 1st picture is the complete mess at the pump.

New water heater, new hydropress, pipes mounted to the walls, re-routed electricity. Re-used what I could, but much is new. My pride: I could not get a flens that fitted the pump (yeah, an industrial one of twice the price of a similar jetpump). I found I could remove the flens and fit a coupling I have in a box for over 30 years and survived 3 moves. Removing it was exciting, it had been in place for 40+ years but I managed without damaging the cast irons pump housing.

There is still some 'floating' pipes to fix, but over 95% of the job is done. Man, did that improve the water flow !!!
