Finally did some model making tonight: first time in several months.

It's good to be back...

But first I will put the televisual thingy on so I can see what the Dear Leader has to say.

Worked most of the weekend so treated myself to an evening off. Watched 'The Constant Gardener'. A moving film that reminded me of what the Dear Leader and his ilk perpetrate in our names. Sadly.

I've got a cold.

Just a cold?

Anyways, my curry is almost ready.

You don't have to wear a mask but you now do. You should go back to work but stay at home. And the rule of 6 has been strengthened by reducing the number of wedding parties from 30 to 15. That should be enough to be going along with.

Yes, just a cold. Sore throat initially, then bunged up/runny nose/bunged up.

No Covid nastiness. I had a brush with that in late March.

I've had to go look that up, as I'm not a great watcher of films...

You missed out "there have been too many breaches". Nothing about trips to Barnard Castle, though.

In other words, the usual verbal hokey cokey.

So I shall keep carrying on as I have been. Which is generally keeping my head well below the parapet. Sometimes I'm really glad I'm an introvert.

Day off today. Yesterday at around 3pm I started getting a sore ankle at work and ended up hobbling for the rest of the evening. This morning was sore and stiff, typical sprained ankle pain and swelling...but I havnt knowingly sprained my ankle ?
Then I put two and two together, playing with our 6 and 4 yo grandkids on the field, running around like a 20 yo...trouble is, I'm not. Probably overdid it a bit

I now have a whole sonnet.

Still needs a bit of polishing, but first, some chocolate.

Build higher parapets!

Build higher parapets!

Or maybe it's easier to ditch the stilts...
