Happy birthday to Accy.

Social morning today. In the surgery waiting room met an old friend. Old in both senses of the word. He is unfortunately one of those who come too close to you when talking.
Mebbe being a retired dentist from some strange place called Lancashire has something to do with it.:rolleyes:
He has acquired another scrap boat to fix up and is trying to arrange delivery from 10 miles away. This is a 15ft Orkney Skiff apparently and he had one of my previous boats a Hunter 19 which is still lying in a quarry 15 miles away waiting to get fixed.
96 years old and not long back from getting airlifted to Glasgow for new heart valves. Daft as a brush as they say.

Nurse came to give my B12 jab " that's some bruise you have there". That is where my flu jab was done and never noticed the bruise before. We had a nice chat anyway while she extracted blood as well.

Back home and a girl was inspecting and repairing a fence opposite my house. Apparently we are having sheep again as neighbours. Not been sheep for a few years now and a couple of horses three years ago so there should be plenty feeding for them but they will be lambing in springtime so supplements will also be given.

nice Wifey recently ordered a turkey for the American Thanksgiving. I asked if she ordered it cooked. I did not see the look she gave me
 
was that a traffic thing?

I live fairly close (ca. 3 min) to work, but if I'm organised and quick in the morning, I can ride a bit further and see some of the beautiful countryside around here.

Traffic is something that happens to other people...
 
There was a now infamous case of someone who was a Covid denier being removed from the local hospital by a group of his Covid denying cronies who had broken through hospital security and taken him out of the hospital. Apparently the treatment they were giving him was causing all his problems. The man dies from respiratory problems about a week later.

so many lives could have been saved, if not for those lying, cheating, POSs
 
Grey, blustery and soggy here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept well, but still feeling rather chesty. It's a tickly, dry cough that's as annoying as heck. Not corona though. Included in this morning's tasks was making a large pot of tomato soup and grooming the girls.

I found one passenger on Madam Poppy and four on Madam Lexi - three of which were dead. There's hardly any dirt left in their coats now though, so I think we're definitely winning this battle. Poor Lexi though, is allergic to the bites, so she's not a happy bunny. But now that the weather's turned colder and wetter, that should put pay to any more.

I have to drop off the parental's prescription at the quack later.

Looking out of the window, I can see whooper swans in the field over the other side of the railway.

It is time for luncheon.

We keep getting the odd one jump onto Simba. The other's are free of them, but Leo is allergic to the buggers. We've even used the 'vet recommended' spray.
