Isn't it good that we are human beings, and therefore possibly have a brain to make our own decisions. 8)

It's not brains that I need BB,  I need a decent memory bank !!

On the face of it, it seems that most of my memory has got stuffed full of names, occupations and bmd's   :D

I'm afraid I always take my decorations down FOR Twelfth night - so the 5th of January. (We always used to count the 12 days as starting with Christmas Day itself.

DIARY:
« Reply #68 on: Wednesday 03 January 24 12:16 GMT (UK) »
Well I started a new diary but for the life of me have no idea why it is in things for sale etc!
 :-[
Dark and wet, here today.
No chance of washing hung outside!

Spoke by phone with my little friend this morning, as there was an ambulance at her door on New Year’s Day when my son drove past on his way here .
Not sure of the events but she is back home again.
She is 90 tomorrow, hoping to get to The Bury Blind Society .I hope so as her
Daughter is unsure if she can come as bad weather and roads in Cumbria.

What a pity.
I have a card and gift for her but will not go in as her personal circumstances are now very difficult , my G.P. advised me not to as I am very vulnerable .

Appointment with Heart Specialist team ,but not until February, despite ASAP
on my records from GP.

Photo of Kyra “ riding “ a big floppy elephant cushion my son bought her has come , using its ears as reins.

Well must get on, hope all are O.K ,thanks for the “ chats “ throughout the last year.
Viktoria.
