Morning All!
It's Bank Holiday Monday - 2021 Week 22!
Yesterday: Morning was a bit of a struggle, woke a bit early and then the body did some very odd stuff during the service when it clouded over. Very nice sleep in the afternoon after which we got some more stuff moved for Operation Fix The Bed That Phil broke. Quite a bit of sorting followed, to the point where my body was going NO by the end of the evening!
Today: Quiet day, which is probably a good thing as my body is having issues with standing, transferring and moving today! Prob some more sorting, may need to send J into Loft again.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

A confused local cow jumped a fence into a neighbouring field and then stared at the fence intently as it appeared to realise all its mates were now on the other side.

I hope your body starts co-operating, Phil.
Day 8: Sainsbury's mixed roast vegetables, including cherry tomatoes.

Bank Holiday Shed Life
I thought I had defeated the rain, sent it packing to elsewhere, but I am a fool. The rain had simply left me to the merciless sun. Ouchies!
I'd hoped the roof would be on by tonight, but no luck. The boards just need cutting to length before fitting, but then theres still the membrane to put on.

Morning All!
It's Tuesday - 1st June
Yesterday: All went OK, got a fair bit done. The crates in the corner of the room produced a couple of nice surprises which has helped futher my thinking on what will end up where.
Today: Liz is a bit busy. I'm aiming to polish off the last bits of the room.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

Morning All!
It's Wednesday!
Yesterday: Largely good, progress on room and the bed is fixed. But, and it's a BIG BUT I had a huge head meltdown while on the phone to Mum and the landline went and Liz answered and I was needed there. Two sets of voices going at once just melted my head in a way that hasn't happened for months. Really shook me up, I thought my head was coping better.
Today: Leading at 8am. Test Match at 11. L going away for a few days. She's leaving us a Tagine in the slow cooker for tea and J can sort some Rice to go with it. Homegroup tonight.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

I had beef madras in the canteen for lunch today. I am assuming it contained tomatoes.

Martin At least you’re not around three espresso machines, two ovens and a large bloody coffee brewer. I occasionally melt. |

Morning All!
It's Thursday
Yesterday: OK day I think. Think Prayer Meeting went OK first thing. First test of the summer at HQ - managed 2 hours in the morning and an hour post tea listening on the radio. Major googly mid afternoon when Liz discovered her booking for going away was the 3rd not the 2nd which had some knock on effects for catering and weekend plans - was hoping to go in Sunday am. All sorted now and we know what we're doing. Made it about 1/2 way through homegroup before body said no.
A little trouble getting off last night and a little wobbly this morning.
Today: Shopping IN. Liz going away, no she really is this time!
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

You've already had a parcel from Phil this week, albeit a cunningly disguised one.
One package has gone north of Ben and it's receipt has been confirmed already.
The other has gone south and some assembly of it's contents may be required.....

Benevolent Phil has struck!
He has sent me a gun for Crosswise! A GUN FOR CROSSWISE! My Spychanger RID ten are complete!
He has also sent me... a box of robot bits... which might take me a minute to work out...

Not much time for foruming lately, but, it’s moving day!
Back home on the farm now for a couple of months while chains get sorted, then hopefully in Devon by mid August
