  • Good afternoon all.

    I've just been and done a supermarket shop. Still no uncooked, frozen croissants in Aldi which upset Mr GF, not that we're in imminent danger of running out.

    We've still got Openreach engineers up telephone poles here. Last night we also had four gas vans here. I have no idea what else has gone wrong now.

      • Safe journey Nicos and enjoy your break.
        Busy evening here with my grandson, now age six.
        Playing snakes and ladders with him and teaching him to be a good loser. 😏
        Rary, hopefully the weather will be better tomorrow, its soul destroying to see the summer pass by.
        Have a good evening all.

        And when your back stops aching,
        And your hands begin to harden.
        You will find yourself a partner,
        In the glory of the garden.

            • Phlebotomist - a new word for me, LD. Thanks.

              • Good morning all.

                I hope you enjoy your trip, Nicos and get calm weather. For some weird reason I used to love to see the white cliffs getting slowly closer when sailing into Dover. (I haven't seen them for years now though as I was a convert to the tunnel.)

                I'm awake early as a scary dream woke me up. It was so wonderful to realise that I was curled up, comfortable, in my own bed with Mr GF and nobody/nothing was chasing me.

                I think I might just try and snuggle down for abother hour.​​​​​​​

                • Morning
                  Yesterday was just rain again and dull with drizzle now, keep hoping the sun will find its way. It's the worst summer I can remember Rary.
                  It's good when the jabbers/vampires are good LD.
                  Hope your trip was smooth Nicos.

                  Brew anyone? before dog walking.

                  Edit to say morning GF.

                  Am off to walk then grory hopping. Have a good day.

                          • Good morning all. It's a lovely sunny morning here.
                            The laundry is on the line so it shouldn't take long to dry,
                            A trip to the supermarket and then a browse in the library.
                            Hope to get out to the garden this afternoon.
                            Have a good day all.

                            And when your back stops aching,

                            • Well that extra hour in bed turned into over two hours🤫

                              CG, Mr GF's rather unkind names for phlebotomists are blood suckers and leeches. All the ones at our surgery are brilliant though. I think all the sadists among them end up at our local hospital. This has just made me think that I'll probably have my phone inundated by texts for me, Mr GF, and his brother shortly to book flu and covid jabs. Hopefully I'll be able to book us in en masse with any luck.

                              I think the vacuum cleaner ought to earn it's keep next. I haven't got a robot one but I do like the idea of them. I saw a video of one escaping from a hotel which made me laugh. It died in a shrubbery when it got out of range of it's base station.
