Does anyone live next door to Aaron Barnes the CEO of Parcelforce Worldwide ? I just thought I would ask! I don't think he lives in a semi on an estate!
If you do could you pop round and tell him to get a move on sorting out my frame mix up!

For it to be downhill one way requires it to be uphill the other way.
Flat is kinda boring...

You'll be telling me actions have consequences next.

Back to my apartment in Freiburg. Washing machine washing, bed made. It's domestic central here, I tell you.

Equal and opposite reactions...

I am watching the start of what looks like very small flying boats.

The wind is foiling their attempts to find the start point.

Second cuppa went down well
How can I know about something that I don't know about, people forget I am not psychic

On the return from Lidl I encountered a ginger cat sat in the middle of the road, a dog trying to get at it but restained by its lead, and the dogs owner just stood their. Pondering which was exhibiting the most intelligence.

So the dog should have been released?

BP still cannot settle down.
Then there's something wrong with the kidneys.
So I'm staying in the hospital overnight for monitoring.
I hate hospitals but I was told going home isn't an option.

As soon as my wife goes near a hospital her BP goes up. On one occasion we spent hours in A&E, nothing they did seemed to work, so they eventually sent her home, whereupon it dropped back to nearly normal. Mind, taking it over a cannula probably didn't help.

Same here for Maz still at least those on 'pension credit' will still be given it

And they told us it was the Tories who were into taking things away.

Further to this excitement, I bleached the teapot; it is now shiny inside and out.

I just had a chat with the chap who has my frame. He seems like a nice chap and very understanding. He was a bit confused as to how is red ally frame became a red steel one ! It is a bit hard to believe but it seems like 2 vans dropped the parcels off at the depot where the wrong labels were applied.

Hot and mostly sunny here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept well, but woke up early because my bladder decided it needed to take precedence over further sleep. So I've puttered about in the garden, watered everything, paid my VED and done some writing. I've also been watching hockey and swimming amongst other things. Now watching people doing backflips on little bicycles.

Also got the insurance kerfuffle sorted out. A very nice lady called us on the dog & bone, and it transpired that we never received a letter saying that they no longer did that particular kind of cover. Hence the confusion. Well, at least I know where we stand on that, and we've been directed towards some people that do what we need. So at least that is sort of sorted. I just need to go through some paperwork before sorting out a fresh policy.

Anyways, it is almost time for luncheon.

Lunchtime stroll completed

Further to this excitement, I bleached the teapot; it is now shiny inside and out.

Eugh!

I wash my teapot, but don't remove the tannin from the inside. A scrubbed metal teapot makes the tea taste funny until the tannin builds up on the inside again.
