I just received a phone call letting me know that I have a problem with my computer. I am glad that someone else has noticed this. Perhaps they should inform the manufacturers ! :whistle:

Today I spent nearly 7 hours in the garden pruning, tidying and shredding - my back is knackered now and I still have to cut some logs for drying.

As an antidote and aid to increase my flexibility, I decided to youtube 'how to do the 'floss' dance'. I'm a middle aged bloke and I've learned how to do 'the floss' this evening.

My dancing the aforementioned 'floss' had the added benefit of making Mrs P laugh so hard there was nearly a mishap.

My FIL, who is 84 and has Alzheimers, rang the doctor this morning to tell him that he had been poisoned (by the doctors), and couldn't get out of bed. It was just another rant in a life of ranting, and it's earned him a stay in hospital under observation. As his sole carer is his 89 year old wife, they may not let him out in a hurry when they see him soiling the bed 2 or 3 times a night. At least when he is in hospital he can't dial 999 or 111, which he likes to do 3 or 4 times a week.

Getting old can rather strip you of your dignity, albeit obviously some had rather more of that than others in the first place.

I got a Presidential Alert on my phone while I was with the vets this afternoon, getting allergic dogs seen to.
I knew they had this for some time, first time I've ever seen it used. I thought the idea was not to use it, actually. Ever.

Not only am i wide awake but i'm alcohol free which is probably why i'm wide awake:unsure:. I'm taking part in this. https://www.drinkaware.co.uk/advice...rinking/how-to-cut-down/go-sober-for-october/
There are a few of us down my local pub who're taking part. I did suggest a sponsored bike 60 mile bike ride to Blackpool and back (Get the pain over and done with in a day rather than a month) ,but the others thought that'd be worse than no alcohol for a month,such is their laziness.:headshake:
Hey look on the bright side,i've only another 28 days to go!:wacko: :eek::cry:
