At 0800 my new freebie Decom one+ was saying 3.9 but now after coffee and ginger nut biscuit it’s up to 5.8. So all ok.
It seems the new year was a little more eventful round here than I knew a lady two doors down had her son arrested and taken away in handcuffs on New Year’s Day it seems he had managed to Get access to her on line banking and had stolen £3000 and had been taking her car and driving it without permission licence or insurance and when she confronted him he became threatening so she called the police.
On a happier note Keiran is going to Bristol later in the month for his formal graduation from his masters degree.

Morning all from a distinctly chilly L.A. as opposed to the real one which is ablaze. If this is a wonderful world I've misunderstood the meaning of wonderful, which is very possible, fallen seems much more on point. The now we see darkly theme is only added too by the posts I've read so far,. @Annb with your pain, @JohnEGreen with the over reaction to warfarin., @Lamont D with the weather stopping the use of the new rollator and @Krystyna23040 with Poppy being poorly. The little Epihanies in all that? The pain killers, the doctor reducing the dose, the rollator actually being there and assembled, the vet being open and able to help. All very now but not (quite) yet. I'm not given to citing Churchill positively but KBO seems to be today's thought for the day herein, but then isn't it always?. @dunelm thank you for the splendidly realised frosty field. @gennepher thanks in advance for sharing your skilful work. Busy day here which will cause a problem - not life threatening so chill your beans Winstons and park any hugs somewhere else - however it turns out. Yes young Bedingfield, how very true.

We are so.lucky we have a wonderful vet in our village.
Poppy has picked up a tummy bug going around. She had an anti nausea jab and I think she also had morphine for her tummy pain.
She has soundly slept since then.

Better treatment than many get from their GPs.
Glad Poppy is going to be OK.

Our local hospitals are very close to being full or as it has been, overflowing, no beds!
Mostly flu, but also far to many patients for the staff.
My DiL has already since New Year worked two extra shifts.

Seen a strange phenomenon this morning....
The dividing fences facing South were steaming as a brief spell of blue sky, direct sunlight. Shone down.

I really like that when it happens which is quite frequent. Argyles? Wellingtons or Southerland Highlanders don't rhyme, whereas St Giles .......

has been on the beeb tonight.
Don't know wether I should?

And I have the kangaroo poo, Christmas present, so it might not be as bad as I think it is!

No details, cheeky!
 
So: to recap
On the 7th three men turned up in two vans to shift the furniture to the storage units previously booked. MrSlim accompanied the removal men to help unload and secure the units when full. Unexpectedly when they arrived at the "Box" one of our units was occupied by someone else.
Getting no reply from the Box manager, they unloaded into a vacant box.
Next morning the irate manager is on the phone insisting we have to move all our stuff, from box 26 to our designated boxes 19 and 20. Box 19 is still locked.
Box 20 is smaller than box 26, which is full and stacked high.
Somehow with the help of some wonderful friends we managed to get everything except some garden furniture, which can be stored elsewhere into box 20. We won't be paying for box 19.
However this extra task has set us back.
There are tasks outstanding now and only a couple of days to get them done.

Farmers round my way, my lovelies.

O/p got a funny for the benny hill-esoue merit of the borderline fence you were sitting on ..bravo

Obv a medium size hug for the anguish itself.

I specified the size of hug.

Because in situations like this the biggest hugs are reserved for those facing an impending flight with a possible need to use the airplane toilet during the flight

They get the biggest hugs . And prayers...lots of em. ...WHOOSH ....eek

Btw check that starboard bow....spocks family might be out there . ;)
