As Reynard says, there's not much useful to say. Thinking of you @fossyant.

Thanks. Still here but at least she is relatively peaceful.

Long night ahead. MIL in hospital on end of life care. Nursing staff just brought us a big pot of hot water, milk, tea, coffee and biscuits.

I've no words,

First shave for a week completed
Watched some of the giro in Welsh

Do the Welsh see things differently ?

That's fair game, no point wrecking your eyes.

And there's nothing wrong at all with a slice of luxurious bliss. The library here doesn't really cater for my tastes, so it's charity shops and discount bookstores for me. The local tip always has a good selection of books too.

That's got me wondering ! Is there a reader's section ?

Long overdue. Will be a blessing as she probably should have gone many years ago. She's ready to go. On strong opioid but still waking and answering questions. Body is knackered.

It must be of great comfort to her that you are around her at this time.

I thought it may rain on the way to work.

But it didn't.

I can't comment on the tip, but we have a reading corner in the shop; it gets well used too...

I do that. I like to see what the buttons do and I don't want to spoil the surprise by reading the manual.

Manuals are just for when you can't figure out how to do something after days of trying.

It was always the instruction "when all else fails read the instructions". Works for me.

I have to overripe, almost black, bananas.
Perfect for a 🍌 cake!

I have just been introduced to the word "sproing"

Meaning that small part from something mechanical that slips out from between your fingers and sails off into the ether never to be found again.

I used to have to do repairs to our knitting machinery from time to time and inevitably some tiny part would drop and scurry of somewhere. Strangers would get a bit bemused to find several people with backsides in the air searching the floor with torches. They travelled a surprising distance sometimes and hid under something. The only alternative would be to cannibalise a not working machine which was not a good idea.
