I lead such a busy life that I fell asleep for about an hour this afternoon. I hate doing that as when I waken I feel like death warmed up for ages and not at all refreshed.
Just as well we have a pharmacist who knows the regulars as a visiting GP on the basis of a telephone appointment told me to go and get a decongestant. He did not prescribe this tho’ so I thought I could get it on a pharmacy prescription. Not only would I have to pay for it the pharmacist appeared and said she could not give me one as I was on pills for high blood pressure. Something may be suitable but they do not have it in stock and it is relatively expensive.
Another sunny day and so not out on trike due to low sun. This will persist until the weather turns wet or snow again and I would not be out in that either.
The other road I could use is not a high priority for gritting and I have had some scary bike trips on that in icy weather.

That apricot tree has been completely cleared up. Small stuff has been kept for kindling, anything bigger than an inch and a half has been turned into logs, and the leftovers have been shoved in the green bin.
Looks odd without it there, but am glad it's dealt with, and the wood is pretty well much ready to burn.
Now sat down with a
and a chocolate biskit.

It's one of the mysteries of the universe...
As well as smalls, I was wearing cycling base layers (leggings, short sleeved top), t-shirt, jeans, fleece jumper, fleece gilet and a windproof rain jacket thingy. Go figure...

Good grief; how did you manage to wield a saw?

A parcel arrived a short while ago delivered by the postman. It was a Christmas present ordered by DIL from Inverawe Smokehouse sent special delivery by Royal Mail.
The fancy packaging and postage probably cost as much as the contents which are not cheap.
Fancy and tasty snacks for a while.😊
At long last she has got the right idea as often I got wildly unsuitable but highly expensive presents.
Son is not back from Taiwan until just before Christmas if airport strikes do not interfere so she is in charge.

Looking through the square window I can see it's dark and frosty outside
Who is in the round window?
