Thank you, for some reason I have startedanother painting of Etchinghill, not sure why, did I forget I'd done the first, have I time travelled or am I just loosing the plot?Good morning everyone on dark and dangerous times in the dark and dangerous north and other places
The wonder wheel of a fine breast of lamb came in at 4.8 this am
@Muddy Cyclist - chilly bike ride and a fine, vibrant sandstone outcrop, backdropping those dark trees and shrubs - smashing. Walking and log fires sounds good.
@dogslife - Belated birthday greetings and hugs for your recent emotional rollercoaster. Hope your mum is OK.
@gennepher - love this art, fine silhouette exposed by the dawn cry of the approaching Ra.
New series of Staged is going well and well done to both for maintaining that lock down look. US Capital police caught on the back foot - strange days and a new enemy of the state. First foray into a supermarket yesterday in this new year, list firmly grasped in hand - happily not many people about so the avoidance dance not activated and checkout Charlene with no queue. Shout at the telly at 7pm last night - I still think that Mz Bruce should stick to antiques. The Repair Shop - does every item need to have a back story like participants in Britain's Got Talent - can you book your spouse in? Now I’m thinking about Jeremy Bentham - “Tyranny and anarchy are never far apart”.
Art - in recognition of our fine news reporters led by that loony Laura bird - a big lump of bull wallowing in the mire. Have the best day that you can. Koffy calls (other sounds available by appointment).

Thank you @Muddy Cyclist - no, I have not been a water buffalo farmer but I do enjoy a really good bocconcini or burrata and have seen the films Out of Africa and Crocodile Dundee.Thank you, for some reason I have startedanother painting of Etchinghill, not sure why, did I forget I'd done the first, have I time travelled or am I just loosing the plot?
Another magnificent beast from you, I have to say as I did yesterday you certainly understand their physiology, have you been a water buffalo farmer in some pastlife?
Hi Muddy,Thank you. If they are still there in a few days I will try and get a better picture.
Thank you for that. I really appreciate your comments. If you need anymore help do PM me.Morning all. No Swipey data today it seems to be unwell. Anyone willing to do so please pray for our American members and the thousands of Servicemen, women and their families far from home, family and friends. I also need to publicly thank @Krystyna23040 who has patiently and highly professionally provided me with invaluable help for dealing with my spinal issues.
Hope you feel a lot better very soon.8.2 yesterday and 6.5 today. I've not been feeling very well and my MH hasn't been very good so am trying not to stress about the numbers too much at the moment.
Every word was true and it is I who should be thanking you once again. That post and your help are a measure of just what an amazing person you are. God bless you.Thank you for that. I really appreciate your comments. If you need anymore help do PM me.
Sorry art today is another of Etchinghill, why I have no idea. It is less than 300 meters from my house and so is frequently walked and cycled over, three bridleways cross it so I am being a good lad.
Water colour A4 about 1 hour.....

Oh @dogslife .Apologies in advance for this long post and for not posting a fbs. I have ten minutes of my birthday left so thought I would spend them sharing my experiences of the last two days. Yesterday was the anniversary of my dear dad's passing and was full of emotional flashbacks. I then had a long phone call from the manager of mum's nursing home informing me that 20 of the residents including my mum and 29 staff had tested positive recently and that 6 had died! Apparently since we were last able to visit in March several new residents had arrived who were mobile. Some of them had a tendency to wander into other people's rooms and this had probably contributed to the sudden spread of the virus. The layout of the building was also thought to have contributed to enabling this to happen so the plan was to move the 10 residents who cannot walk, including mum, from their downstairs rooms to upstairs to protect them. I had several concerns about the move for mum but was asked to let them know my decision in a couple of days. Then this morning whilst opening my birthday cards I had a phone call saying the move was taking place there and then and asking for my agreement to move mum. I had to put safety first but requested that mum could be moved to a room with a similar outside view as this was important to her. They agreed so I gave my consent. When I rang this evening I was told mum was fine and had settled into her new room. Phew!!! The good news is that mum has weathered Covid so far without serious symptoms. Sorry for the long post but I really needed to vent. For those who read my post to the end --thank you. No need for hugs as writing this down has already helped a lot. Thank you again. Good night all. Have a good day tomorrow.
