Well, dun it so far

So far I have done the whole half a month's daily puzzles

Gymming

Then we headed to gym and today I did loads of rowing on the rowing machines

Shopping

So phew, the wind and rain had stopped this morning, so Timmy&I were able first thing to pop to Iechyd Da and get the organic veg without getting soaked or blown over. Then we headed to Morrison's to fetch the rest of the shopping. By which stage the rain had come back but we were in the shop quickly

Windy Last Night

When we were heading to bed last night it was well windy, GGtGG asked me if I thought he should bring in the hanging chimes (which I said "No" to BTW......), it was well windy over the bins that we had put out. Except that s'morning the bins had disappeared, GGtGG had to go and look for them, luckily they had only blown about 20m before getting stuck against summat, but scary

And this morning the wind has dropped, even the chimes are hardly chiming.....

First

But first we headed into town, 3 times round Lammas St before we found a free car park space then walked to Wilko (which now costs £1.60 to park at) and got a new bulb as one blew t'other day. You can no longer buy the same kind but the much more expensive, much more eco friendly bulb of the same size was available

GGtGG bought some bleach to keep my house clean while we were there

Utterly Cheerful

Oh so happy. So me and GGtGG need to head to Aqua Aerobics at lunchtime, the second swimming session this week.........

OK, it wasn't so bad. Yes hard work but I didn't have to be rescued from drowning today, I did it

Buzzing

And last night my PC started buzzing loads when I approached it. GGtGG said he recalled summat about my phone interfering, I took my phone out of my pocket and placed it on the window sill behind me and the 'puter had stopped it's really loud annoying buzzing noise.

It is OK now, the phone is back in my pocket and I am sat at my PC - no buzzing noise

Pay For Parking

So we need to pay for parking at the Docs/Chemist s'morning as we need to go to the Docs and pick up a script

Which we did, picked up my script and left. Then, before we came home, we went to gym and this week I actually did 10km of cycling which was hard work but I did it. I tried to claim I was too knackered to continue after 5km but he was having none of it

Winner

And someone with a similar postcode to mine won the "what's your postcode" lottery today

Springtime

So it is about 6 degrees warmer today but the weather forecaster says it is gonna be freezing again over the next few days

Hooray

And as I can't find any excuses we are due to head to Waterworks in the pool s'afternoon

Just hoo-flippin'-ray

And wasn't it fun. But I did it. Although I did have to be rescued at one point, I was sitting on the woggle and fell over and I couldn't get my feet under me, so my head kept going under the water. I wasn't panicking, I was breathing in when my head was above surface but I needed to be grabbed and pulled on my feet by..... loadsa beautiful women, so I think I might get a reputation if I repeat my stunt too regularly

Cocoa

And I tried that Hot Chocolate that has been in my cupboard for a week and a half for the second time tonight and I was right last time, it is delicious

God Botherers Day

So I cooked s'morning for a couple of hours, then was able to switch the pan off and let it rest. So I have frozen some now and I think this will do "us" for the rest of the week

Off Out

And we are off out tonight to The Ffwrnes, Llanelli to see Sin-derella or somesuch adult Pantomime

Aargh, you couldn't take any photos, even without flash so I couldn't capture it but it was nearly 3 hours of ha ha ha fun

Spotty Nose

Oh dear, spotty nose

Double dear, a few days later the swelling has gone down......

Renewed pic now

Clive

Then we popped to Iechyd Da to catch up with Clive's band and I was overly impressed. So I saw Julia's new Father-in-law and Naomi too, her Mother-in-law but he is a talented fscker, even if he is stuck in a wheelchair now

Looks Better

Ah, the windows look a lot cleaner now, GGtGG got stuck in. There are a few marks on them all that won't come off but generally they look so much cleaner

Classing

(Sigh) So I am off to the class at gym this afternoon. It was odd yesterday, whenever I had my FES on every step I took my right knee was locking back but last night when I was just wearing my shoes I was able to walk properly. So hopefully if my FES is put on "properly" I will be able to step

Right, I have got it on a couple of hours before we need it just so I have time to practice and I am capable of walking in it today without my right knee locking backwards, so hopefully that will continue.....

Well that went OK. My FES didn't make walking too difficult and  it just went as well as.....

Bite

"Give it a bite of my brains bandwidth" the chappy on R4 said at dinner time. Yes, he's thought about it....

Busy Morning.....

So s'morning we need to pop to Iechyd Da to pick up my veg, then onto Morrison's to get the rest of my shopping then.......

And then, after coming home to put my shopping away I popped to gym (Today again!!!) and did 3 and a bit KM of rowing. Oh it was fun but therapeutic so I can't complain too loudly

This was the thing I got confused with cycling and got off the bike after 3 KM t'other day.

That's What I Usedta....

So out of the blue today I was thinking about tobacco, rolling tobacco. Old Holborn and Golden Virginia were the popular brands but this was what I smoked (he said after much research online)

PhD Graduation

Then s'afternoon I had to watch, as the circs were too abrupt for me to get funds for a trip up there, I had to watch that Sam graduating. He was the first up after the introducer introduced them so about 4 minutes was all I had to watch but just wow etc

Foggy

And it has looked well foggy all day now, it's lunchtime and the sun hasn't cleared owt

(Hip, Hip) Hooray

And after an early lunch we are off to Aqua Fscking Aerobics. In my change of clothes to save us having to carry oodles.......

And didn't it go well. Me and Magic got out of the pool 10 minutes before the class was finished, she did say "Sick of me?" but we needed to get back so I can nap before watching Sam

Men's Shed-wards

Then tonight I am taking the sander I was lent to Ferryside Men's Shed to, hopefully, make more progress on making my little tably thing

Well that was that. It rained really heavily on the way over but was raining less by the time I got out of the car there. There weren't many folks there tonight but I finished (?) sanding the device, so next week we will try staining it with some of their stain then the week after I had better make some pictures to put on the top then we will cut down the perspex for the top

But Stupid came over there just to give me some Xmas pressies that Julia had given him to pass on, a pressie from Sam's Emma's Mum&Dad and a card from That Toby which made me a bit sentimental

Frozen Dinner

And I actually had to cook frozen food for dinner tonight as we had eaten all the "stuff" I made last Friday, I made na'an bread pizza on Thursdsay when I got the shopping. So one more night from freezer then I start cooking again

Oh What Fun *again*

So s'morning I was told repeatedly that you are s'posed to do 10KM on the bike so I did it. It actually wasn't as boring as expected as I was playing solitaire on the screen in front of me. Actually I did 10.15 KM as the last game looked like I might be gonna win and I did so I had to stay conventrating and not climb off when finished.

But I did it and I won

Headwaying

Sigh.

So I have to head to a Headway meeting s'afternoon, to be beneficial in some way that still escapes me

Aargh, wasn't it fun. We were playing brain ache games again, although I did win one. With some assistance

It *Is* Winter

Brrr, it is fscking freezing today. We just popped to town to let Timmy buy a "on the wall calendar" and even with my jacket on over my shirt it was freezin' in town, glad to be home again, in the centrally heated house

Oh What Fun We Had

So, Sunday morning...... Well this week I had to do my washing on Sunday so listening to it now........ Dunno what we will do later, it feels a bit chilly today.......

Out

Then we popped out to the local pub and it was actually busy-ish tonight. And most of the night we were talking to someone who works where I used to live, Leonard Cheshire Home, she was an outsider who had followed work here

Out S'morning

So we popped out today to the tip and bought a bag of organic compost (for £2.50) and just went a bit off track when we were coming back. So we actually passed the first house we lived in in Wales which is actually for sale now, no longer to rent.

Then s'afternoon we popped out again just to walk around town, so we walked up the newish shopping center etc

But that led me to think, "What do folks actually do with their time??"

Dinner #17

Well as my sense of taste is a bit fscked I cannot be sure but I thought this weeks "stuff" that we had for tea tonight was very delicious. And MM said praising things too. The main difference this week was that instead of Curly Kale I had bought an enormous chunk of Broccoli which makes me wanna say "Yum, yum"

Jim

So we headed to gym for my once a week class today. Yes, I have got less fit after a week off but I could still do stuff that I couldn't manage a fortnight ago.

So it went well

Email Crisis

And loading the email prog has lead to a message "It can't load, we are trying to fix it" but as I was so busy in and out of the kitchen I didn't have time to cry. And just as I finished cooking it has fixed itself

Dinner #2

So as I got to make Na'an Bread Pizza last night I was a bit puzzled about today. If I am cooking "stuff" I need to put it on early and leave it on half the day but as I am off to gym s'afternoon I thought I would have to switch it off again etc.

So as it was I have done all the preparation of veg which is cooking slowly now. I will switch it off when I pop to gym then switch it back on later and add a load of lentils and chick peas which will be well cooked enuf by dinner time tonight

Dinner

And because Timmy wasn't working today I got to make my na'an bread which I purchased today into Pizza for tea. As the na'an bread were a bit larger I didn't cook too many chips with it.

But yummy

Not Timmy

And as they have had to change the rota a bit it is not Timmy coming to Iechyd Da to pick up my veg today!!!!!! It is GGtGG's duty today......

Well we did it. To Iechyd Da, parked on King St on the furthest away space, walked down and back to the car.

Then we popped to Morrison's got most of the stuff but had to nip to Tesco too for two items

THEN we went to gym before lunch and I did 3.25km of rowing machine, this is the device that I got confused about earlier in the week when I jumped off the bike early after 3km

Beer Pouring

Then tonight I had a can of beer which I poured using my right hand.

Yes, I am getting so much better at using my right hand

UberCycle

So we popped gymwards s'morning and Timmy said "No swimming, you are still blowing your nose, do you want to do a long cycle or one with fast bursts?" so I cycled for 20 mins going as fast as feck from 4.5 - 5 mins, same at 10, 15 and 20.

Dunno, I did, IIRC, 5km-ish which averages out at 15kmh

Wind Has Dropped

And last night's scary wind seems to have dropped again s'morning...... it's quiet again now...

Weep, bitter tears....

Dunno what to say, just modern technology..... and it is for sale to everyone, not even a specialist shop...

Not Adventurous

And as it is raining heavily I don't feel very like going to Men's Shed tonight, it is miles from where we park the car until we are undercover

Excess Shopping

So we popped to Morrison's s'afternoon to pick up some 'eat every day' products and some drinking chocolate, which I had a sachet of t'other night (which had been in the cupboard for... a couple of years) and rather enjoyed it so we were on a hunt for 'just add hot water' d/c

Oops

So we headed gymwards, did 2 lifty machines then got on the bike. I did 3km then jumped off and picked up my bumbag etc. RoyGBiv said "Aren't you gonna do the rest?". Ah, 3km was on the rowing machine, I was supposed to do 10km on the bike today.

Whoops. So he has been told to remind me next week......

Trialling

And again a trial....

Monkeys

Lordy, watching the program about chimp sanctuaries is a bit mind blowing

Why do chimp sanctuaries even exist???  Just double lordy....

Walk and Shout

So we decided to go to town for a walk around. We got there and the lower road was closed so we had to head up to King St and park up there. We walked down the hill and suddenly could see why the lower road was closed. Oodles of fox hunters were having a parade through town while loads of protesters shouted at them, which I had to join in shouting, the scumbags were showing off

Happy New.......

So as it is New Years Day there is nowt to do, nowt on. Gym is closed, many shops are closed...... we will head to town in a bit and have a walk and a brew somewhere, I think

Celebrating?

And we are off out in a bit to the pub up the road for a new years celebration. Wonder how many locals will be there?

And it wasn't too bad actually. OK, most of the night we talked to 1-3 folk but it filled up at the end

AND as recommended, I just drank the normal strength bitter, 4%, rather than the treat one which was 6%. So I could drink 4 pints and still walk back to the car without any disasters etc, whereas with the stronger ones 3 pints is my limit

Windy As Feck

And last night when I was lying in bed there was an enormous gust of wind, really strong, the power went off for a couple of seconds then came back on.

All the digital clocks said it was 00:00 for a couple more seconds before they settled down and said 04:43 or whatever it was. My PC in the bedroom that had been switched off "came back to life" and had to be manually switched off when I got up s'morning

Itches

And I noticed today... I had an itchy bit on my back. But I didn't scratch it, I just rubbed the itchy bit with the finger tips of my hand. Very strange, not scratching, no bleedin' bits, no blood but just rubbing makes the itch stop/go away

Thera-fscking-putic

So me and GGtGG popped into town today, popped into a charity shop to donate my watch that I bought for £1.45 on Ebay and can't read, and just walked for miles(1), theraputic-fscking-ally.

But in the charity shop they had next Christmases wish

(1) Along King St, past the old Town Hall, down the big hill past it, turn right at bottom, along for a bit then back uphill past Caffi Iechyd Da, back along King St to the car

Quiet Day

So gym is closed today so bugger all on. We might pop out for a walk later but I need to have an earlyish bath so I have got time to finish all my creams etc before Brian&Rita and Sam&Emma arrive just after 4

Lordy. Very strange to see them, but pleasant. Later they phoned Julia and spoke to her then said "Oh, we will have to make out own food when we get back" so I offered them some of the stuff that I had made today, so they said "Yep". It was very odd cooking for a total of 6 people but I managed, and a number of people commented on how calm I was the whole way thru

But I forgot to take a picture!!!

Sigh

So we said "Let's go shopping" but only got about half way there when I said "Save fuel, lets go to gym on the way" so we popped to gym, did various machines and now I am about 85% of the way though a 10km cycle

Well after finishing that we made it to More Reasons To Shop At.... and did a bigger pile of shopping than usual. I did some shopping of products that we found cheaper elsewhere but thinking about the extra time driving, parking etc I might not have saved much in the elsewhere shops

Excited

Then after a quiet nooneraft I am waiting for Sam&Emma, Toby and Freya to arrive then we are all heading out for dinner.

After a brief exchange of pressies with Sam&Emma who I haven't seen yet this Crimbly

Well they were find. All 4 of them had dinner and pudding with me. What can I say except "I am not worthy..." which ever direction it was aimed in

Found It

So ages ago I bought another small torch device to keep in my pocket. It was bigger than the one I did use in the end but I was looking for it rather than buying more batteries. Couldn't find it. Neither could 3 or 4 MOS. None of us could find it.

But out "looking for it" technique must have been a bit wonky

Last night I looked in the same place as I had looked in many times, where many other chaps had looked too. Found it

Walkies

So we headed into town for a walk about as my gym timetable says "Swim" s'afternoon and I am too poorly with the cold to do that but it fscking started to rain just as we got there, continued to rain on us as we walked along King St.....

Bank Holiday

And I got my dole s'morning that I was supposed to get 2 days ago but it has been a bank holiday since then.....

Phew, relieved...

Boxing Day

Then we had a kind of Boxing Day usual celebration. No one was being happy within a hundred miles so...... no where to go out and have fun to.....

Out&About

So me&Timmy headed into town and walked down to Next where I had to upsize summat. We swapped it for 2 items as they were on sale prices whereas it was originally bought at full wack.

Then we headed out and stopped at a cafe where Timmy bought me a Xmas pressie of Hot Chocolate & A Bun.

Then we headed back to Next and swapped the 3 quid token they had given us for a little lamp, as I don't think it will ever be spent otherwise

Lunch For Dinner

Then tonight I had my usual lunch for dinner, salad&bread roll etc, as we already had dinner for lunch

Smug, smug, smug

Sorry, this occurred to me t'other day.

Woe Is Me

But I did have to attract the attention of a woman who was serving. "So whassup?" she said. "Discrimination" I replied.

"What, why?". "There's all you members of staff, I haven't seen an ugly one today!"

And one of the staff there must have been absent last Xmas as, earwigging again, I heard her say to a colleague "He was in a wheelchair last time I saw him"

Xmas Dinner

And we are popping out in a bit to The Eating Establishment that IIRC we popped to last year too

And it was a bit lovely. I didn't have too much extra, but first of all some sprouts (as it is Christmas) and a bit of food to accompany my nut roast but it was all nice

Last Night

And it occurs to me....... last night when MM was taking the photo of me&my offspring at first I was struggling to put my right arm around Toby's shoulder, it just felt like too much bend was required. Last year I would have required him to sit down or whatever but now, as my arm is so much better than it was then, it just wriggled into position

COP

So after 648 changes of plan we are popping into town later to pick up that Freya from Naomi's house then Julia is gonna drop Toby over later when his train gets here.

I have asked Freya to meet me outside as it is a bit embarrassing calling at Julia's new chap's Mum's house

No, change of plan #256. Julia brought both the kids here and dropped then off. Then we spent ages chatting and had a lovely dinner which no-one left a mouthful of which was nice.  Later we popped out to the local pub but it was shut so we headed into King St in town, went into the Weatherspoons pub which was as not busy as a shit pub but was actually quite pleasant

Christmas Night Out

So as it was the Saturday before Xmas we popped out to the pub. Oh it was busy. When we got there 1 couple eating dinner and 1 chap sitting around the corner from where we sit at bar.

Later we swapped the eating couple for another pair of drinkers but......

L8R

Well having said "WTF...? I am nipping out s'afternoon. GGtGG had suggested a walk around town but I reckon some cheap frozen food from Farmfoods would fit my bill

Aargh. Twice to Farmfoods. Once did all my shopping, came home, was putting it away when I said to GGtGG 'Whats Pepperoni?' so we had to go back to the shop and change one of the packets of mini pizza that we just picked up with the veggie one on top. Sorted, they didn't even ask me for a reciept

WTF Was I Doing

So I got stuck into cooking the weeks pan of food s'morning, so it will have time to cook later, then I....... dunno but it was midday before I opened the door that leads to the room with my PC in't corner

A whole morning without any......

Strange Exercise/Play

So as RoyGBiv said "You are still a bit poorly today" so we set out for a long walk instead of going gymwards. Started off on Blue St just where it turns into town, parked there, headed down past M&S along The Mount then uphill along Jackson's Lane to King St. There we popped into a charity shop where the MOS was most complimentary about my eye patch especially when I told him the "Why" story. Then we walked back down punishment hill to the car. It took ages, I didn't look at my watch and it was much too late when we got back. I leapt into bath/bed for a bit then got up thinking "Gord, Roy is gonna be well hungry by the time I have baked spuds" but then it occurred to me, it is chips Friday which we had with two halfs of a big french style naan bread pizza. Which was delicious but not too big. A small bowl of oven chips and that as I am on a diet

HTML Crisis

Well I eventually figured out that I had posted summat in the past with a PC version of a webpage and a second version, to be looked at by mobile phone users which is displayed automatically if you are looking on a phone. It took some hours of tearing my hair out as I had forgotten that it could be done but, in the end, the page is finished, multi version automatically etc. I don't need to put up a second link to a mobile phone version which is how I started this process some hours ago.

Just PHEW

No Web

So I woke up s'morning, got breakfast and was sitting down with it. I reached for my iPad, switched Radio 4 on and it sed "No inteweb connection". I looked over my shoulder and the router had indeed a red light on the front. I thought "Bother" but thought I would just finish Muesli and Coffee before buggering off to press restart.

But about 1.5 minutes it fixed itself as if by magic

Folky

So we did head to the Christmas Party at the Folk Club tonight and it wasn't bad. I was drinking some Punch which wasn't too unpleasant.

I have taken some photos which I will add here tomorrow. Here you go, added now

What A Morning

So first of all we popped to Iechyd Da to pick up a much larger than usual order as they are not supplying there next week. Timmy was delighted at the extra carrying, especially as I can't walk back to the car very fast.

Anyway dun that then to Morrisons for milk etc

THEN we tried the gym as I have had a few days off. It was OK, I did the rowing tool, I think I took about a minute longer than last time but not too bad

Then we had a late lunch and did early washing up as we are popping back to Iechyd Da for their Xmas do tonight

Oh yes, while we were in More Reasons To Shop At.... s'morning I got a few bottles of wine as the kids who are *grown*up*now* are coming over at the weekend. It is sitting in the kitchen crying out to me but no, it's not for now

Echinacea

Lordy. Yes, I still am a small bit snotty but 97% less than yesterday.

That herbal medicine is money well spent

Get's Me A Bit Emotional.....

Just good lord, how kind hearted is this. From the look of it they are not even Christian so shouldn't care that it is Christmas Day.....

From Facebook

WTF

The day after I posted summat about online advances I read in the paper today about how Drs might be able to let you grow older etc

Nooneraft Off

And I spent a quiet afternoon sniffing and coughing. Hooray.

But I do feel slightly better now after 1 day of Echinacea so hopefully it is doing me some good

Medicine

So we popped into town s'morning to pick up some Echinacea medicine to make my cold feel better. As I had already said I was too poorly for Gym we headed off around town for a therapeutic walk.

Now it did occur to me on the way to the 'Healthy Items' shop that I could probably bought it cheaper online but it was the delivery delay that put me off. I only decided to fetch medicine s'morning and the 48 hour delivery timeslot makes me feel a bit too poorly for Xmas 

Nor Tonight

And I am feeling too poorly to head to Men's Shed tonight too....

The borrowed sander will have to wait a bit longer....

Well I feel a bit better than I did s'morning but not very. I still feel like sh*t

Not Today

So we are not going to megacycle today as I feel a bit poorly. Might go out later but for now it's just sit here

Got A Farking Cold

And my nose is running and my cough is a bit scary. I don't feel very well

Happy Farkin' Christmas

Then we popped into town as there was a pressure of the shop closing by the time I have had my bath

Then we popped to B&Q to try and get some sanding bits to attach to the sander that GGtGG lent me for tomorrows session at The Men's Shed but they had none there. We even asked a chap.

But I did ask him where to go, an alternative, he said Charlies where they did actually have the bits we needed. GGtGG paid for them, they only cost IIRC £4.50 for 20 pads which I might only need 1 or two of

First Of All

So then we popped to gym to one of Sam's classes. Except it wasn't taken by her. It was strange, still struggling with some stuff but better than I have ever been at some other stuff.

Afterwards I spoke to the instructor, told him to pass it onto Sam, I was well happy with the quality of his teaching but he wasn't even a tenth as beautiful as she is

Uber Dubious

So feeling more dubious s'morning GGtGG said "You can go to Sam's class today, as you are gonna miss her on Friday" so while we were heading into town we called in gym and checked time.

Then we popped to the Drs to get my 'script.

THEN GGtGG needed to do some "Buying cleaning products for the house" so we went to about 3 places to do that.

THEN we came home for an early lunch as I am going to Sam's class at 2

And while we were at home I got GGtGG to re-position the FES pads and suddenly I can stop my right knee from beating back into hyper-extended position

Dubious

So after getting out swimming trunks etc for tomorrow, piling them up in the hall along with towels etc I feel a nit snotty to actually go to the pool. I will see how I feel tomorrow, if my nose has stopped running etc etc

Busy Today

Gosh, today is full. Of....? OK, sarcasm

Scared Of Cycling

And my right knee which has been wonky since the cycling trip on Tuesday is again some better

Off Out

And we are popping out s'evening to Pontardawe Arts Centre to see the "Adult Panto 2017 - Aladdin" (new correct link) so gord nose what to expect

And oh what fun we had (Midpage link)

Chop, Chop, Chop, Chop, Chopping

So doing the veg for my food today. A) I have bought some sharper knifes, and B) My right hand is just getting better at "moving in the way I want it to" and I am pleased about how I can chop

QOTD

"Is Paraffin Wax As Non-Toxic As It Was Declared To Be In 1850?

In a word: No. In two words: Hell no"

From GeekyGirl

Chopping

But first we have to go to the toenail chopper to have my toenails done. And paid for.

Well.... didn't she do well. Again watching her made my brain hurt but she did it

Missing Her Already

And IIRC Sam is not gonna be about to take the gym class today. The phrase glamorous assistant springs to mind....

Well it went OK. For most of the class I am thinking "I am still getting better" except on the bike device I had a problem bending my right knee enough to do it. Yesterday and today I had some cream rubbed on the back of my knee which is improving it some but not enough for the class today

Pressies

And first thing I got out the sellotape and wrapping paper etc and wrapped last pressies. Again I am just getting so much better at stuff involving my right hand. Today I did the cutting of paper with my right hand and writing cards also with my right hand

Cream

Then last thing Timmy put some Ibuprofen Gel on my right knee as it was hurting oodles

And it does seem a bit better s'morning, still hurting but not as much

Beer

So we popped out to the pub and was actually surprised how many folk were drinking and not eating!!!

Loadsa

Then when I was half way thru lunch the postman came knocking on the door. He had 2 xtra pressies I have bought for someone, my piece of perspex for the table top, a Xmas card from Sturit and a book from the Guardian, a years worth.!!! I carried them thru, dropped half, picked them up and was able to resume eating and opening them at the same time

Marginally Hectic

Then we have to do the collecting organic veg, then the "normal" shopping in More Reasons To Shop At... (noisy link) then gymwards before lunch

Well I did the rowing exercise at gym, my breath was breathy and I was sweaty so it must be doing summat.

Hectic

So we have already been to the PO delivery section to fetch my parcel that the postman left a card for yesterday, came back, opened that, then Denyse arrived, to do GGtGG's appraisal, Timmy is here to discuss that with them, then Denyse is gonna come and talk to me, then I am gonna have an early lunch then go to an AquaAerobics session in the pool.

Then I am gonna pant for a bit.....

Well the pressie turned out to be from my Dad, a Xmas card for me c/w 3 minor cards/gifts for each of my 3 kids

And AquaAerobics was as much fun as it is usually but I did it

Oh, and Denyse was....... Denyse-like
