my Dad often sent me that stuff but I never used it. what is your procedure like?

I usually hand wash my waterproof jackets etc in the Nikwax stuff, rinse, then soak in the proofer for a while. I then rinse & spin in the washing machine.
 
I had to go and feed a friend's cat whilst she's away . My wife went round yesterday and got hissed at . When I got there I couldn't see him. He was hiding somewhere . I put some food down and does fresh water . He had left quite a lot of messages for me in his tray . :ohmy:
I popped into the living room and he had come to see what was making all the noise . I let him sniff my hand and he realised who I was . He let me give him some chin and ear rubs and then I followed him into the kitchen . I got one his as I scared him a bit . He settled down and sniffed his food whilst I sat on the floor . I stayed with him for over half an hour chatting and giving him strokes and ear rubs . I even got a purr out of him . I will go back this evening and give hi some more strokes .
 
Hot, humid and occasionally sunny here chez Casa Reynard.

Spent the morning erranding, and managed to sort out everything apart from acquiring some more kitchen roll. The only two rolls left in Tesco were at the back of the top shelf, and no, I had no intention of going mountaineering. :laugh:

I actually still have three and a bit rolls left in the house, but I'm the sort of person who buys a replacement for something as soon as she opens a new pack.

Also bought a new pack of loo roll, and my usual ones now don't have a cardboard core in them. The rolls are now double size as well.

Had cheese on toast, a fruit salad and two :cuppa: for luncheon.

Now watching the cricket and editing the photos from yesterday.

Wifey & I recently watched an entertaining & informative film about cats on Netflix

I've had a chat with 3 cats today . One was Georgie our cat , the other was our friend's cat and the other was Schrodie , my daughter's cat who used to live with us . He recognised me and went a bit silly having chin rubs almost falling off a garage roof .

I've read that Madonna gets a B12 shot before performances

I suppose it may vary according to dose but I do not have medical knowledge so cannot comment on that. In my case the time between doses is 10 to 12 weeks. Certainly no closer than 10 weeks.
The injection in upper arm is usually but not always a bit painful. Not the needle going in but the actual fluid. I have a lot [ too much] experience of getting needles stuck in me but abdominal ones are usually painful.:ohmy:

It did not rain on us so far today. A shower did pass on the other side of the Sound and a rainbow formed but we were clear on this side.
After my medical attention got out on the trike for a run with busy road but mostly cooperative traffic. Sat in the sun for a while and watched an angler out on the nearby loch while waiting on the service bus to pass. I prefer to wait as I know that they are due to pass at specific times and better to wait rather than meet it at some inconvenient spot.
The wind was pretty strong and windchill was setting in before I got moving again.
Sheep on the road which gave tourist traffic great concern but locals just whizzed through. Pal of mine taped a whistle to the underside of his van which he claimed cleared sheep off the road. Never tried it myself.

A none busy bit today. Sheep on both sides of the road are a problem and a danger to themselves and traffic
