But it clearly says ANOL!

Lovely evening but the nights are really drawing in now. Went for a walk in the park and a drink afterwards with my new lady friend.

Ethanol, I always wondered that about old Eth.

I had another glimpse of my future when I went to see my dad this afternoon. At 84 years old he'd had a long weekend in the Lake District (not the Peak District as I thought) with my step mother involving a long coach journey each way, three days out doing more each day than he'd normally do in a week, was still totally shattered and just went into deep sleep mid conversation.

I'm using genetics as my excuse for a 15 minute doze on my sofa at home late afternoon.

Feel tired and stressed, so calling it for today.

I'm up. Dog's out in the garden tiddling. Tea's brewing. First load of washing in the machine on Night Time leccy.
It's Black Bin Day today, too.

Let's get the kettle on.
Hopefully today will not involve a hospital

Morning.
Everyone this morning seems to be promoting assisted dying!
Harold Shipman springs to mind!

First cuppa going down well
Another grey day by the look of it but it's not raining although we had rain last night.

Blue and Brown bin day today, our close looks forward to the colourful bin days Black bins are so not us.

I read somewhere that adding salt to coffee reduced the bitterness. So I just tried it to absolutely no effect. I'm going to have a second (salt-free) coffee now.

Looks like this local moggie was enjoying a good drink of rainwater out of the black bucket on our patio.

Morning perambulation completed in a drizzle. Still pretty dark out there but I guess the dark days are upon us for another winter.

Met a woman driving her VW SUV thing along the pavement despite my presence on the pavement.

Porridge consumed and all ready to start work for the day.

Raining for the first time for ages and a bit windy. Just softening us up for what is forecast for the weekend.

Storage heaters still not working so text message off to the electrician and waiting to see what he will suggest next.
I do have heat but it is on the expensive tariff [ not that the other is cheap] plus a calor gas heater.
This is complicated by probably soon having to go for a TAVI plus pacemaker which will keep me away for four or five weeks and I would prefer to leave just a little heat circulating in the house in the cold weather. Summer would be easier but nothing I can do about that.

Need to go down to the chemist to collect a prescription and then set about sorting meds. into the new regime.
What a busy [not ] life.
