A hug for what happened to your Mum and Mr Gee's medical issues - but a Winner for the lovely picture of the wave.
A hug for what happened to your Mum and Mr Gee's medical issues - but a Winner for the lovely picture of the wave.good evening all
4.6 today
sorry for the lack of posting, my anxiety is giving me a bit of a rattle at the moment. Must do better
We spent two days last week working round medical appointments for mr gee, the first was for him to wear a heart monitor for 24 hours, this involved a 75 mile round trip to the hospital (and more car park time for me) but fortunately they allowed us to drop the unit off at the local health centre for return
then he had his first appointment with the diabetic nurse. It seems to have gone well and his feet etc. are fine and of course he received an information pack pushing low fat and 'eatwell' and the 'other' diabetes website
then mum insisted on going to get her hair done and pick up her own pension on the bus, she is stubbornly independent which is a double edged sword. she ended up having to wait ages for the bus back and then fell at the bus stop. She says she was just really tired and cold and there is no seat at the bus stop anymoreDid she phone us? No! although she had our mobile phone numbers with her.
anyway she is feeling fine again now after a good rest but she has decided she won't go in on the bus again, we will take her when she wants to go. We would have taken her anyway, but she wants to be as independent as possible.
I'll try to catch up on the thread bit by bit, hope everyone is doing ok.
art bit - still trying to do something every day and mostly succeeding.
another wave - this one is my version of a work by Poppy Balser who's work I like

Thank you.
I can sympathise with you - my parents are both fiercely independent but we have persuaded them that if they do any gardening then they must both be together and carry a phone.good evening all

I’m not that hot - in fact not even tepid when it comes to animals, especially horses - even that Stubbs geeza couldn’t quite get it right.Study of a horse as practice for drawing cats.
I tried to follow the outlines of the horse I saw in the texture of the paper. Last night I sketched one and managed to make him sort of 3-dimensional, but I couldn't repeat that with this one. I have no training whatsoever in drawing other than a few months at school when I was 13, and wasn't taught anything about depth of field(?) or dimensions then.
This was an attempt to draw the horse of the friend who wants the drawing of the cats. I know what he looks like in my mind but I can't get what I see in my mind down on paper. He is a dapple grey but looks more like an Appaloosa doing his rain dance that was supposed to be Airs Above the Ground.

Something that is not so clearly defined.

Its amazing how in the Oceans these super waves occur when all the energy vectors converge to such an extent they are dangerous to shipping by their magnitude.good evening all

Good start, you will get there I'm sure, practice, practice, practice.Study of a horse as practice for drawing cats.

Frugal worked. I do like this landscape and sense of scale and distance, brilliant.Good morning everyone from a three tiered victoria sponge cake rule of six reggae dub of a morning in the dark and dangerous north.
The wonder wheel of slow roasted lamb and a coaxing of mint sauce came in at 4.9 this am
A mixed bag of weather yesterday but did manage to get a couple of loops round the park without a drenching. Sloes out of the freezer and into some gin, bread making and a dozen cheese scones.
Some interesting heat seeking graphics from Jonny Van Tam yesterday before a melange of unrelated words, interspersed with the odd greko-latin burp from buffoon city.
Still, all will be revealed today when the house has “debated” the odd phrase by taking it in turns to stand up (sometimes remotely) and blather on about totally pointless items interspersed with words like “furlough”, “tier”, “guidance”, “museums”, “trains” and “the honourable Jammy Dodger for West Suffolk”. I shall be doing what I have done for the best part of this year - avoiding people, getting phobic about hand washing and wondering why my old Zorro mask is now not fit for purpose.
Some ink on some rice paper, trying to be frugal with the brush. I wish you the best day that you can have. Koffy

What about the others involved, who attended the party? Did they also have financial consequences? Hope they were all obliged to isolate, but very much doubt if they would.Was quite shocked that 3 UEA students held a party for 100 people in Norwich. The 3 students were fined £10,000:each. I think that might deter other students from holding similar parties.
I'm not sure as it's most likely the bank of moms and dads who will end up paying. Those attending also knowingly flouted the rules so that's a lot of youngsters who obviously don't really care. I can only hope that proportionally this is still a minority of the younger generation and that the greater proportion who I still believe have respect continue to do so.I think that might deter other students from holding similar parties
