PaulSB...it kinda crept up on over a week. About a week after I began with it the foot and leg cramps occurred less and less frequently.
Mo, it didn't help me sleep at first because I took my vitamins and the magnesium with breakfast. It was only when taking it after supper, which in our house can be 8:30-9, that I noticed my sleep was improved. Took a week for that too. I have no trouble going to sleep initially, but I wake up several times most nights and take a whiz, and then I start fretting about any number of things, and can't get back to sleep for a long time, if ever. Now I fall back asleep pretty quickly. I also think knowing sleep will return before long relaxes me and instead of clenching my jaw and muttering "gotta get back to sleep" over and over, I just sink back into sleep.

I always thought that was a bit of an odd way of pronouncing it. In fact, for years I thought that General Powell actually had a different spelling for his first name!

I look at chocolate every day..........😄I may have a look at chocolate tomorrow
Good morning all.
The weather forecast for today is dull, dull dull, and damp.
Dog walking and a bit of tidying up in the garden. I need to prune what is left of the Rose's, some still have flower buds on them. The Fuchias also need to be cut back. They were in flower until a couple of weeks back, a heavy frost one night got them.
On the vaccine front, I have between 18-24million in front of me, so will possibly get between April and May next year. I did get a text yesterday saying I would be contacted when my time is due.
Stay safe everyone

Like a fascist politician in Italy, I have risen!
I have gone through life thinkimg it was called "Far From the Maddening Crowd".
It was only yesterday that MrsD corrected me
I am the same but if we become morbidly obese we will get it faster.
G'day cobbers and may it be VERY good to all retirees.
My day is.......
1. Aldi dash 07.45
2. Haircut booked for 09.30
3. Trip to Frodsham where I am meeting my Brother. He decided he wants a bird spotting scope and asked my advice. I have a top quality one I haven't used for ages so am letting him have it.
After that I have no idea

Good morning. Weather sounds quite placid but too dark to see. Slept until 5.45 which is a huge improvement on last few nights.
We're having our end of year ride today. Five of us meeting up for a 45 miler, toasting the year's riding with bacon and egg barns, cake and coffee at our favourite cafe. Should get home before the rain forecast from 2.00pm. Rain also forecast at 11.00 but should be sheltering near the cafe then.
A bit of shopping later for Mrs P's present and magnesium.
