Mundane News

Best of luck to you hopefully the good news continues.
Your right things go quickly it only feels like 5 minutes ago I was starting chemo my last cycle is only a few week away now.
I'm going ok though yesterday I did hit rock bottom was a bit of a struggle my unwanted guest was fighting a back.Added with the saliva over load effect of treatment. Made swallowing mostly impossible, was all ready to throw the towel in and ask for a PEG feed. Today is better things have calmed down a bit. The change in my routine is not helping as it's frying my autistic brain not to mention the whole hospital environment is over load. Like just how many posters and signs do you really need all over the walls ?
Being positive always brings to my mind the great song , for now, from the musical Avenue Q it's so true and reminds me of better times.

It saves on decorating!

Beccles is quite close to the Norfolk border - that 'Normal For Norfolk' stuff tends to spread southwards a bit.

When I lived in Peterborough, we used to reckon anyone from east of Whittlesey was a bit suspect

Fabby supper of a Thai red curry-inspired pumpkin & red lentil soup, then avocado on wholemeal toast, curried beans, roast baby plum tomatoes and a fried egg plonked on top.

That was quite an entertaining Formula E race.

Ha ha,make sure you wash your hands BEFORE you go to the loo.

Or go anywhere near your face. Ask my mum about that one!

Many years ago, aged about 7 with a bad cold, I applied Vicks on my mother's advice, and then rubbed my eye.

I learned a lesson about washing hands after handling things that can sting...

Chopping chillies for a batch of chutney, and me on my monthly. Let's just say the result was, err, somewhat electrifying!

And yes, I *did* wash my hands first, but obviously not well enough. Things were going "ding a ling a ling" for quite some time afterwards.

Isn't there a limerick about a girl from Beccles... And freckles? 🤔

There's this one.
A portly young woman from Beccles
Liked cakes made with currants called Eccles.
But a spotted dick pudding,
Left her head sore and thudding
And her face all covered in freckles.

Looking very white and crisp out this morning , no chance of me going out till late morning.

 

[PeteXXX]

Grey & dismal...
Enough about me, though.
2°c & damp. Likely to rain for a fair bit of the day.

 

[Flick of the Elbow]

Good morning all, wet and windy here, not a trace of light in the sky as yet.

Morning. It is wet out, I don't think it is raining at the moment.
I looked out of the window to see my car's interior light flashing on and off. I grabbed my dressing gown and went out to see what was up. I started the car and ran it for a minute and then switched it off. It seems to be playing up since the battery voltage went down. It says that the hand brake needs recalibrating. Seeing that it hasn't been anywhere it seems as though the low voltage has caused a few glitches.
