Great news Pharma, very pleased for you both.
Dull cool start to the day but is brightening up already.
A but muggy after some rain in the early hours.
I bought a new potato/ vegetable peeler from our super hardware shop,
I had a good S/S Lakeland one which disappeared?
With the peelings nodoubt ,so as an emergency bought a cheapy plastic and metal one ,it eas marvellous so did not bother to get another Lakeland one .
Well that was either taken by the potato peeler fairy ( she is related to the teaspoon fairy!) or again chucked in the bin.
Go a replacement Saturday,extolled the virtues if that at not much more than£1 ,used it yesterday - it was utter rubbish !
Ah. Well I thought .bsck ti the old Lancashire peeler.
When washing the new one ,guess what,
, I had not taken off the protective plastic strip covering the very sharp blades!
Tried it on another potato and yes fantastic!
Honesty I am not fit to be let out !
Will phone son after next drops to see how he is.
There is no pattern to help identify a cause.
And he is normally so busy in the garage “ fettling “ things like a Lambretta
scooter he has completely rebuilt ,all authentic parts etc
Pinger will go in a minute or four , but did the same thing happen to Eriksen
last year?
I googled it and it said 2020?
Quite common amongst highly tuned athletes it seems.
In the investigations for my daughter’s strange symptoms that question was asked ,any sudden deaths in young.
athletic people?
Her symptoms were from Pernicious Anaemia but the
altered shape and size of the red blood cells in that disease means they can clump and cause clots ,so —— .
There was a water rat,really not a rat,one like Ratty ,Wind in the Willows - living in one of the drainage ditches along the little lane to our house in Belgium ,a delightful creature .
The farmer set traps which our boys sprung every morning!
It did no harm whatsoever ,eating the stems of the flag irises etc.
Thet also sprung spring loaded nets set to catch wild birds in the mesh !
Bird fanciers or whatever they were set then but often did not come back for a week .
They were set just across a moat at the end of our garden but over the fence
which separated us from the grounds of an old decrepit chateau , stones thrown at the springs made them shoot over before trapping in the mesh any birds which would have come to feed on seeds etc put to entice them.
Very cruel.The boys sprung them before anything was trapped as far as possible.
The chateau was inhabited by the last of the family ,a very old lady.
She allowed our boys to play there ,well they had read Just William books
Madame Claaes Bouuaerts .
Old Flemish spelling.
Well still brighter now so must get busy.
Washing ,always washing but I love pegging it out and fish to be fed.
I really do not know how I stand the excitement!
Well must get on ,with a thousand and one things ,including dead heading the aquilegias before they spread seeds everywhere!
Cheerio Viktoria ,
Look after yourselves and hope all your families are well too,.V.
