I am so pleased it worked for you. It also was the answer to my problems and it doesn't taste horrible either.Hi Krystyna,
I have been using this for a few days now and it seems to be the answer to all my problems in that direction.
Thank you so much.
Derek
Are we talking about Psyllium husk powder or some other top secret ingredient?I am so pleased it worked for you. It also was the answer to my problems and it doesn't taste horrible either.
Brilliant sunrise.Finished my second sunrise. This person lives on a hill near Tutbury looking East over the Trent Valley so here is the view from his back garden. The third sunrise I was asked to do more abstract looking through the wood at the bottom of their garden. As I didn't post yesterday here be the finished one and the start of the next all wrapped up in Clingfilm at the moment.
Both A4 watercolours....

Nice Crows. I do like the expressions you manage to get into your Corvids features.Good morning everyone from a cold and frosty morning here in the dark and dangerous north
The wonder wheel of spiced red pepper and tomato soup with chorizo came in at 5.
Thank you for all your messages of condolence which I have passed on to Mrs Miggins.
Art for today - a couple of crows. Hope everyone is as well as they can be. Early koffy time.

Super reflections in that water, just like it behaves under bridges or in tunnels.Fbg 7.1
Wow!!!
My lady blackbird who has been sitting all alone on the tree branch the last few weeks, every day, waiting for her soul mate to return, (no other male blackbird has approached her these last few weeks), so I am assuming her calling must have been specific to a particular blackbird, has just this moment been rewarded. The male blackbird she appeared to have been waiting for has just arrived. The pair of them are dancing among the tree branches. I had been feeling so sad for her, now the pair of them look so joyful!

It is Psyllium husk powder which has worked so well for me and @lindisfelAre we talking about Psyllium husk powder or some other top secret ingredient?
It does sound as though she was regretting it. Personally I think that lady was foolish. The comments online to her complaining post, that the time of her last minute jab appointment, was inconvenient to her so she didn’t go, were not in any way sympathetic to her at all. So now this ‘complaining’ lady has to wait for another text appointment. These are difficult times, because some people are going to be missed out if they are not on the system somewhere. I would have gone to the jab appointment first (even early if I had to), and then sorted out any problems about where I was also meant to be afterwards. You just show your jab appointment and apologise/whatever and I cannot see anyone judging you for that.
I did read some comments online that my local Rainbow Hospital would vaccinate you even if you didn’t have an appointment, and you fitted in the requirements/parameters of the group of people they were vaccinating at that particular point of time. For example someone said they had an uncle they cared for and he was in the older group they are doing at the moment and she was asked questions, and was told she could bring him in that day. So she went straight home and got her uncle. There were a few more stories like that. One lady had told them her spouse was in the car in the car park and he was similar ages to her etc and after questions she was told he could come in and get the vaccine, so she went out and got him. These people expressed their gratitude online.
It sounds pretty flexible at my Rainbow Hospital.
There were some people complaining online about the queues (and it was hard work for me in that queue and some people let me jump the queue a bit) and it was icy cold waiting outside, and some people complained about that, and complained about no chairs to wait on outside.
But they are vaccinating an extraordinary amount of people daily here. You cannot expect your normal expectations of facilities that you got pre covid times. The NHS staff looked tired even at 10:30 am in the morning, but they were all friendly, courteous, kind, took the time to explain and listen.
I can only have good words for the NHS staff and the enormous task of this job they are doing.
What a strange day, other than 4x4 vehicles nothing is getting out of our Close and so Mrs MC and I decided to walk to Shugbourgh where Mrs MC keeps her horse on one of its farms, 12 mile round trip. ... we dropped less than 100 feet into Trent Valley to follow the Trent Mersey Canal and the snow virtually vanished. Walking back up to Etchinghill snow almost gone but back at home still a good amount but at least neighbours have started clearing the road, did in front of my house early morning.
Here be Mrs MC along the cut and the walk back to Etchinghill.

The star like snow flakes 'Fernlike Stellar Dendrites' are very unusual here in Staffordshire, I have only ever seen them in The Black Cullen Mountains and Glen Coe.
Thank you @Muddy CyclistSuper reflections in that water, just like it behaves under bridges or in tunnels.

Sounds like a lot of digging this morning @geefullgood evening all
5.1 today, self inflicted, not enough exercise and too much food yesterday
We had to dig out the car this morning so we were out almost an hour later than usual for shopping, doesn't seem to have made any difference, when we got to Lidl they had only just opened because the staff had problems getting into the store with the deliveries. All the shops were very quiet
We did get more snow overnight but the plough was round early so, with care, we got to the nearest town without too much trouble. We had about 8 inches or so of snow here.
One advantage of getting to town later meant we were still out at 10.00am so we boosted our alcohol stock too(can't buy alcoholic beverages before 10.00am here).
The weather was cold and sunny today so we went straight over to Mum's after shopping with her stuff and took our snow shovels. she had about 12 inches of snow there so it took us a while to clear our way to the house and shed. that's got to count as outdoor exercise right?Katy made the most of it, she loved pouncing on the snow scoop and 'poofing' the snow everywhere, she ended up like a snowball
Hope your day is treating you kindly
@dunelm - I like your crows very much, fine stroke work, we had a couple just like them in the garden today
@jjraak - good stuff, glad it went so nicely
@gennepher - how lovely that your blackbird's mate has arrivedand what a magical cavern of light you've painted today with those lovely reflections
Glad your rainbow hospital seems to be working well
@Muddy Cyclist - Looked like a great walk today
Your abstract sunrise has worked out really well, I love the way the colours contrast and play off each other
art bit - thought I'd have another go at the rock pools down towards the harbour, especially after the generally accepted 'bunch of bananas' feel to the picture last time I tried
