It was called dinner when I was a kid. Lunch was unknown and at work stopping time we had tea which was a light meal.

Wettest day I remember was when we were doing a business call at the slate mine at Blaenau Ffestiniog. It was not raining anywhere else. We did get a free tour tho' so some of it was under cover.You live in Wales , you don’t expect us to believe that . We maybe pensioners but were not that gullible

A lot more shovelling for me today but as the SW wind is coming up the point may be moot. And it will be 3C today and 11C by Saturday. Flooding will be a thing. Fortunately there is no reason to leave the cul de sac for a few days...we have lots of food, no appts and it will be a day or so before the main streets will be plowed. I spent 3+ hours yesterday moving heavy wet snow up to my knees and I am pleasantly surprised to find my back is ok, knock on wood. It's a good thing I did not put up hoop houses in the garden...the snow is drifted to 4 ft there and they would have been crushed. This is the most snow here in the 30 years I have lived here. Enough snivelling about that.
I did enjoy that gardening show back in the day, and I was impressed by Charlie Dimmock, not so much by her tatas as her strength and vitality. As far as her appearance now, aging happens to us all. Just being healthy and somewhat there mentally is good enough for me. I hope I stay that way until I die in my sleep.
Supposedly all Americans will have had the opportunity for the vaccine in a few months and life will return to quasi normal by early July. That would be nice. notice I didn't say semi normal.
Be well and safe.

Well, it wouldn't be YOU telling us about it unless you made an amazingly rapid recovery!
A helpful friend rang me last night on the eve of me getting my AZ jab to ask if I had heard the dire news...? AZ vaccine causes blood clots!!!!!!
Ha ha - where is the evidence for that? She was bemused that I was not concerned, given my clotting history. I explained that thousands of people get blood clots in Europe every year and millions of people have had the AZ jab in the past couple of months, so it is absolutely no surprise that 40 or 50 people would get clots after the vaccine. NB - that is AFTER, not necessarily BECAUSE OF!
Even if they COULD prove that the vaccine DID occasionally cause clots, way more people in those millions would have got seriously ill from Covid-19 without vaccination, or by delaying vaccination to wait for an alternative vaccine.
NB My warfarin regime should prevent the risk of getting most clots anyway. (It is still possible to clot, obviously, or patients would bleed to death if they cut themselves. My warfarin dose is adjusted to reduce my blood's clotting power to 40% of what it would be otherwise.)

I've spent an hour in the front garden this afternoon, its very sunny here, but still a tad blowey and as bit chill. I don't normally do much in the garden before the clocks change but I had a weed problem out the front and it needed sorting, I can't remember what they are called, they are a bulb with a pretty white flower, but I had them out the back a few years ago and they took over, so to prevent that happening out the front I carefully dug them out, I'll have to go out and do it again a couple of times before its clear.

Well that was stressful, nearly four hours on a series of phone calls trying to sort out an issue with a laptop that’s under warranty but the manufacturer is trying to charge for repair. Laptop was purchased by me from Amazon as a Christmas gift to our grandson. When my daughter spoke with Amazon they advised that she send it to the manufacturer. I should have intervened and had it returned to Amazon, now we’re in the middle of a triangle!

Utter tripe about AZand blood clots. They have said that the number of people getting blood costs after having it is just the usual number that get them without vaccinations. Its the EU trying to make themselves look good after the balls up they have made of all of this. They have made their citizens s*** scared of it.
