Hermes - update
Told today by seller - no delivery due to Covid could take 3-4 days longer

I think blaming Covid for everything is getting a bit wearing now

So, Hermes told you it was out for delivery last week, when actually it wasn't.

There are also people NOT blaming Covid when they are actually dying of it...

I've been feeling a bit brighter this afternoon, was s**t this morning, the lounges has got polished, I've been promising to do it for a couple of weeks, and the computer table got tidied, cleaned and polished, now I won't be able to find anything for weeks.

I went on a bus last week, the first time since BC, Before Covid. Was very sparsely occupied and with all the windows open so was ok. Wouldn’t want to use one if busier though. Used to use them all the time BC, the service around here is incredibly good. Trips into town very easy, to the local shopping mall ok, to the Royal Infirmary ok but used to be a lot easier when it was in town. Now the site of flats occuped by amongst others Ian Rankin and Big Ger Morris Cafferty.

We used to use the bus all the time, then in 2012 I got a car, now having got used to the car being back on the bus is a bit of a shock to the system.

Isn't it that the band where one member was replaced, by a lookalike?

Had jab number 2 done yesterday, so woke up with a sore arm - all for the greater good eh. The local government office down the road acts as the vaccine centre, and was pretty packed, queuing outside in the baking sun for around half hour till inside the shady bit. First jab 3 weeks back was Sinovac, and yesterday was Astra Zeneca, just back from my morning walk, so all nicely mixed up

There were bells on a hill
But I never heard them ringing
No, I never heard them at all.......

First LP I owned, probably cost, 7'6d and I've still got it. We played it on one of these.
