Got a text saying I'm on the list for plague vaccine in May, waiting for Snowmageddon.

 

[Gravity Aided]

They still have no idea when I'm getting a vaccine. And I am priority 1b (essential worker).

I was an essential worker but I am putting it down to being over 50.

Feast your eyes on that lot! 10/10 from The Geordie Banger Co.

Oh man, that looks totally lush!

I am over 60. In The States, everybody argues about the federal government, when it really is local government which has the greatest impact in these matters. Coastal urban areas get everything long before we do as well. Illinois, according to some recent computer modelling, may be at a 50% infection rate since the beginning of the pandemic.

The footy is still something of a damp squib.

It's overcast here but there's a sort of weird orangey light. I'm concentrating on doing things indoors.

Never a good sign long term.

I have had a very busy week, so not popped in here at all. Have I missed anything?

The latest news at Speicher Towers is that I will be getting the vaccine on Tuesday.
The garden borders closely resemble a quagmire. I think some deer have left hoof prints in the very end of the garden, but some one said the holes look more like where a runny babbit has dug in the soil. There are also some bear patches.

I won £25 on Bremium Ponds and will probs spend it on plants.

Another house in this street has been put up for sale. It is described as being in need of modernisation.

We missed you @Speicher

-17C here, wind chill -24C. There was 5% chance of snow so of course... That's Gracie the rat terrier heading for her first whiz.
Andy in Germany, wasn't there an orange sky at Chernobel?

Two thoughts; either you're an essential worker or slightly older than I perceived. I thought you were about 35

And "bear patches" ...

 

[Reynard]

Bear patches... Not anything like the bear necessities?

That's always been my impression of football.

I've just jarred my right knee. Owwww.

Oooohh 35 eh? Do you need new glasses? I am 63. I am also recovering from Cancer so that puts me in the "extremely clinically vulnerable" category.

As I often have foxes, deer, babbits, snakes and frogs in my garden, I thought I should have some bear patches.

I think I'm going to have to fit a snorkel exhaust to the car before I go to Tesco. And maybe skis for the return journey.

Anyways, see you t'other side, folks xxx
