Morning all... Wow that was a good sleep, I needed that extra hour.
Sunny at the moment, so make hay and all that before the rain comes later.

@12boy I regard myself as European according to my DNA test

Enjoy your day folks! 🌈

It's raining off and on here, so that's another slobbing day for me.

I have some washing in the machine, not that I'm expecting it to dry outside though.

Except on here ......

That is one thing I will never do.
BTW did I tell you about my bad back?
Its giving me real trouble. But I won't complain.
But my knees... I cannot describe what I am going through.

I have decided to do something productive today, so I dug out my knitting needles and wool and am making a pair of fingerless gloves.

You'll have to wait whilst it's a bit drier, and if you're expecting rain you'd be better leaving be.

I am still waiting for my parcel from China. I know it's in the UK now. Hopefully it will arrive Monday or Tuesday.

Good morning all.
A couple of sad but staggering things to share with you, if I may
1. The ambulance came and they took the aunty to hospital.
At this point its important to remember that she is 95** AND weighs less than 7 stone.
2. She has a broken hip !!!!
More staggering she broke it 6 weeks ago but battled on with paracetamol as......she didn't want to bother people.

The doctor is trying to decide whether to operate or not.
**we asked the question but were politely told......no visiting. So aged 95, probably scared, she is alone in hospital. Very sad.
I will bore keep you informed as I find out anything.

Hope it all goes well.

Back from my run over the Heath, a mere 5K unlike "WonderWoman" Mo
it started to drizzle and my hands got cold, when I reached the Heath the choice was gravel or sand. I chose the sand as it would be more forgiving if I fell over Then the sun came out and all was well with the world. Jumped on the Turbo for 30 minutes when I got back, just to give the legs a spin after my plod. Now wondering what to have for breakfast, Marmite and Banana on toast seems really tempting.

Marmite and Banana on toast seems really tempting.

Love banana on toast, but you are welcome to the Marmite. Tried once and never again.

You know you have to put the said parcel in quarantine for 4 weeks don't you if it comes from China
