More reasons to shop...

So I needed to go and buy more salad before lunchtime tomorrow and some bits, but as it's Timmy working in the morning and he will be grumpy about my looking for Quorn Sausages and Chopped Onion eg I decided that we better go tonight

Neil's Fashion

So today I was glancing at The Gruniad and there was an article about me

Nipped Out

Then we nipped out to Wilko's to buy another mirror as.....

OK, when shaving with my electric razor I can't look in the mirror and see my left cheek, because my eyes were so fscked and they only partly mended it so I can't look even the 5 degrees left required to see my cheek, so I now have 2 mirrors, one to use for most shaving and then bring another into play and shave my left cheek with both

Got That Saturday......

So it's Saturday today. I changed my bed, had breakfast and........ fsck all else

Dinner (Dinner Bat Man)

So we had the traditional Friday Night Dinner of na'an bread pizza and proper chips and again it was lovely

Farmfoods

So tonight we headed over, bought more traditional oven chips, more sweet potato oven chips, and a few bits of ice cream etc

Circulation

And as I am lying in bed after my bath, my right leg is warm enough, my left leg is warm enough, my bum and arms etc are warm enough but my right toes are fscking freezing

Samless

And we had a gym class with a chap instructor as Sam is away on holiday but I still astonished myself with how much more I can do

My right knee, I have been struggling to not let it go too far back on walking, but today I just realised that I need to tighten all the muscles in my whole knee and that keeps it in a proper position

Aardvarking

And I just about managed to not call "Gareth, ignore Timmy, we need to be @ shop" went to Aardvark, parked at the back, and bought everything. And we were back here three quarters of an hour before we need to pop to gym

Walkies To Pub

And I walked all the way to the pub and it was shut. So Mark walked back home to get the car, while I finished walking the rest of the way to the pub so I can say "Did it". So we drove into town and went to the Rose And Crown where the telly is on but the match hadn't started.

Ooh we won too!!

Jim

So we all went to gym and I did less exercise on more machines so Mark can get familiar

Marking

So Mark is shadow shifting with Timmy today. I have a few jobs 4 him then we (all 3 of us) are going* to the pub to watch rugger and have dinner at the same time

* Walking there from here, all of us!!!

'Wimming

Then we went swimming again, I still can't do breaststroke under GGtGGs instruction but we did all exercises and 4 lengths on my back etc

New Monitor

So I was expecting a second hand monitor for the bedroom PC s'morning. Waiting and waiting, I thought "In 20 minutes we have gotta go swimming. Hope he arrives while we are still here to accept a big parcel" Then in 5 minutes he arrived, with nothing for me today. I thought "Tomorrow then" and then in another 5 minutes a new PO van pulled up outside the house and unloaded my new monitor. I unpacked it, said "Looks good" etc then we went swimming. Afterwards we were able, no I wasn't able to, I watched GGTGG plug it in etc and it works. Properly etc, I am a bit pleased

Rocky

And I have just phoned up and booked (I have got a Hynt card now, so my carer goes for free) to see The Rocky Horror Show (noisy link) in Cardiff in IIRC February next year

"The river was deep but I swam it, Janet....."

Wow

Paraplegic man walks again with help from electrodes
