I've just put my green wheelie bin out for collection in the morning. No black bag this week, not enough in it to warrant putting it out.

I acquired a pet herring gull for 20 or so minutes while I ate my fish and chips in Ramsgate. It did manage to pick something up just behind my heel while it was so patiently waiting. When I wrapped up the left overs, he casually ended the friendship and sauntered off to a couple on the next bench who had bread rolls. His feet were exactly the colour of rhubarb yoghurt.

That was a working gull.

That was a working gull.

A self-trained chip herder, without doubt.

Mental health services at their best.

Appointment with a female nurse. That's great. 5 minutes until the actual appointment and I am told that I will be seen by male MH nurse.

Got a letter today describing what we were talking about. I told to the nurse that some time ago I was a victim of harassment at work. He asked me: "Were you perpetrator or victim?" I answered "Victim". So reading the letter I found "She was accused of harassment at work which she denied" ...
Jesus fukin Christ.

Still sitting in tears and having flashbacks of what happened few years ago. It's really nice to know that all it was my fault. Ghhhhh.

Seagulls will gang up and mug you in Herne Bay.

I have a and a bourbon cream biskit.

I knew it was a mistake, my nearest pub is a Spoons and long day no lunch easy quick pint after work. Two absolute cretins 'discussing' the b word and foreigners in general. Having to seeth quietly without shouting out about the stupidity of their totally moronic views and opinions. That'll teach me not to go to a Spoons.

Only a matter of time before they get to the vaccination denials. Time to escape methinks.

It's time to put the paints away for today, as the light has faded and I'm doing a lot of delicate shading. In any case, it's almost time to feed the cats, and then it will be time to feed me.

I'd be back onto them to get that corrected if that were to appear on anything.

I phoned them and receptionist said it will be corrected in my file. But I will never ever be back there again. Don't want any other possible "surprises".

Chances are if you carry on going, you'd not be seeing that person again.
A bad start, but Don't Give Up.

Yet another day of typically British weather in this corner of Suffolk. Absolute deluge as I was getting ready to leave for work, followed 10 minutes later by bright sunshine for the whole of the ride to work, then another deluge as I was logging on.

The bin men were late emptying the recycling bin this morning.

Homemade pizza for my evening meal.

We had that yesterday, courtesy of Elder Son who very wisely took the German equivalent of "home economics", as he was bored by Technology, and can now cook and sew.

He's made German noodles for tonight...

We're supposed to be having road closing 3 day roadworks, they haven't started yet.

Maybe they're digging up the wrong road?
