We live in hope! Depends on the forecast whether the ferry runs or not and its not looking delightful at the moment!

My son is coming back from uni for a weekend. The sudden purchasing of ingredients for recipes I know he loves and a strong desire to cry leads me to believe I may have missed him a lot more than Ive acknowledged So definitely lots of cooking and laughter for me and a bit of reloading the bikes for the ferry on Sunday Looks like itll be nice weather.. for ducks!

That explains the trash talking skills

They did what?!!

What bliss and the complete opposite of my experience I returned to my accommodation that morning to a steady stream of people wanting to come into my room because a couple of years earlier Id made the maintenance guy a cup of coffee and in return he volunteered to hook my tv to the main aerial on the top of a block of flats so I was the only one with a decent tv reception, everyone else had varying amounts of snow and hiss. I was never a Lady Di fan. It was the most excruciating two days worth of people watching my tv, crying and not leaving. The ridiculousness of the hysteria was being played out on repeat in my bedroom ad nauseum. I left them my room keys and drove over 100miles to get away from it ps When I got back they had found my snack drawer and eaten the flipping lot. Remembered to clean it out before I did a bunk on the day of her funeral!

These stats make for some pretty somber reading https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rider_deaths_in_motorcycle_racing

Woah Now thats as dark as it gets

I hope not for their sakes

Yep theyve been reporting a nasty cold doing the rounds on the news, my son has it. Cant help but wonder if its just a normal cold and its badly effecting people because the old immune system is depleted after a year and half of very reduced contact.

My only concern about continuing measures to reduce infection are they reduce all infections. If we continue to avoid all stimulation of the immune system its not going to take much of a knock out punch to make people ill.

When Princess Di died it was the night of our graduation ball (old style uni graduation not the new American style school graduation thats here now) Id not long gone to sleep when someone started battering my hotel door, I opened it to a loud and panicked announcement “PRINCESS DI IS DEAD” A bit miffed at being woken up I replied “Well she’ll still be dead in the morning then wont she” and shut the door and went back to sleep

Id just had a baby, it was a few weeks old and Mr Slowly rang and said turn on the telly, I looked at the screen and down at my new baby and said “NO there cant be a war, Ive just had a baby”

Which ones?

Ive heard the all in one theory but been told it must be separate. Googled it, couldn’t find a satisfactory answer or an ‘all in one’ light n reflector so who knows.

I thought it would be entertaining stories about annoying cunts, preferably ones that get their comeuppance, like the villains in films always do!

Forecast gale force winds. On the phone on hold for 39 mins before getting through. Still I’m grateful they take safety seriously and I got a place on the next ferry

Hopefully Sunday but we’ll see!

I often quote you, what’s the biggy? You know what if its some sort of savagery Ive missed, leave me out of it, I’m distinctly in the fluffy blanket, hot chocolate, life can bugger off zone at the moment.

Yep thats what Ive done

Apparently as we have surpassed the 50,000 infections mark the health secretary is making an announcement later. Hoping if any restrictions are reintroduced its after Ive left for Spain but then again what about coming back On the upside and the reason for posting here is Mr Slowly has been invited for his booster which makes me very happy. So has my dad and all of our older rels. Cant believe what a brilliant job this area (and many many others have done), heartening ay

Oh dear. I turn up in need of fluffy kitten stories to salve the disappointment of my ferry getting cancelled and this is what’s on offer

He blocked you when he joined so youre kinda wasting your breath

The Gods wondered how this person didn’t get the message, they wondered how they could send a disastrous flight experience down to earth and the little people still refused to understand so they sent Zeus who threatened thunder and lightning until the shipping forecast creaked with warnings of doom and everyone ran away Yep they cancelled the ferry due to forecast gale force winds Heyho at least the inner tube I ordered will turn up in time now
