No, it's a Transformers thing. Hasbro designers hide them in their beards. ............ Is that why they keep pissing us off with stuff so much 'cos they're so distracted extracting slugs from they're beards? |

You might be right there. Lord Mark of DecentToysAtLast actually pulled one out live on YouTube. We all saw him do it.

I still don't understand the connection between Galvatron and slugs.

Morning All!
It's Thursday.
Yesterday: Morning went well, nice & quiet by myself. Got some stuff done, possibly a bit too much and ended up in bed v early only to be waken and have difficulty getting off.... and when I did eventually get back to sleep I was woken again straight away. Everything after that a struggle. Bar a cupboard door the kitchen is done.
Today: L teaching this morning then off away for a few days. J helping me with the shopping then off to college. And me as little as possible!
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

Today, the first half at least, has gone very poorly. We discovered we had no hot water at 9am, not good for someone who needs two baths a day to control the pain. Then at about 10:30 I had a massive fall on the landing while walking to the bathroom to wash & shave, and ended up stuck on the floor, nothing on, and in a draught. Was down there for half an hour or so.
Fortunately the chief builder managed to figure out where the sparky had gone wrong which restored the water supply and some balance to my head that was struggling somewhat. Really shaken me quite how thin my mental resilience is.

I still don't understand the connection between Galvatron and slugs. -Ralph Yes you do. Haslab Unicron came with miniature non-transforming figures of Galvatron and Hot Rod that were constantly referred to as slugs in the PR material and video streams. Then there was the stream where Mark was plugging the accessory set and hid the Optimus slug in his beard. |

Morning All!
It's FRIDAY!
Yesterday: Poor. We discovered we had no hot water at 9am, not good for someone who needs two baths a day to control the pain. Then at about 10:30 I had a massive fall on the landing while walking to the bathroom to wash & shave, and ended up stuck on the floor, nothing on, and in a draught. Was down there for half an hour or so and, in the absence of a bath, had to retire to bed.
Fortunately the chief builder managed to figure out where the sparky had gone wrong which restored the hot water supply and some balance to my head that was struggling somewhat. Really shaken me quite how thin my mental resilience is.
But Liz made it away - she's back Monday - and Jonathan did college and group OK.
Odd dreams again overnight, absent friends again
Today: Not a lot!
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

Did Asda and back in the chair today, no buses involved.
Furthest solo trip in the chair in Swindon. Cost me two bars of power!
Lovely day out there, so glad I did it.

Well I didn't go out to see the King, but from my 3rd floor office window at 3.45pm I saw his helicopter rise up from Pontcanna Fields about a mile away and fly off eastwards taking him back to London.

I lost the 'slugs' that came with BEHOLD GALVATRON! within minutes. So tiny. -Ralph |

Morning All!
It's SATURDAY!!!
Yesterday: Not 100% first thing, struggled during the 8m prayer call with back spasms. But got prayed for at the end and things improved from there. Felt much better after a hot bath - very grateful for the hot water again after it's absence, it's amazing how much it contributes to keeping me functioning - and since the sun was out I decided to go out and took he chair to ASDA & back which did my head the world of good. So nice to be out in the sun. Nice big afternoon sleep and some Transformers listing fun & games in the evening. Liz enjoying her break.
Awake till 2 :-( Slept till 10:30!!! :-) Only woke up then cos someone was messing with their car radio outside.
Today: Quiet day. Burgers for lunch. Pizza tea. Zooming Mum, TMUK Zoom, prep for Sunday.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

Was good to catch up with Nick and Gav on Saturday in person without the mad dash associated with a convention to deal with. Popped through to visit a friend afterwards and had a few ciders before getting home in the wee hours.Gav bought his body weight in Mario lego for Lyndsay.
Sister and niece visited yesterday.
