Why thank you kind SirGreat job getting the CD drawer open - NAD - very nice.
Very much the theme of the closing pitches. Country. What Country?nearly there, just got to do something with the base
Good work , Alf.Good Morening Ladies and Gentlemen and those embracing the slightly cooler weather forecasts, whoop better make it clear not physically embracing that would be warmer.
.
Blood sugars were 4.6 another low, it’s a good job I saved my calculations from the last few day, I won’t need to fire up my steam driven sliderule again to much heat.
.
Yes an absolute disaster the fires and my sympathy goes out to those who are and have suffered.
In an effort to stay out of the heat herewith hopefully is a picture of one of my indoor long term jobs, I was trying to get the cd tray to open and retrieve the trapped cd.
Stay safe all stay safe and again stay hydrated.View attachment 55540
Thank you @ianpspursGood morning everyone on a much cooler day here in the heavily USA influenced not quite The Brecks and not quite The Fens . @gennepher thank you for the kaleidoscope although I do see the door as a coffin. Good news on the front garden feeding working but bad news on the fans. Midnight seems to have read or heard of the Last Supper. Your concern for all life does you credit. The hot weather causing such suffering via fires should - but almost certainly won't - make the "climate sceptics" rethink. Such events every three years isn't good. Data I have seen suggests the most at risk and impacted areas will be those needing serious levelling up - except serious seems to have left town just now. @dunelm thanks for the art and emergency/disaster/evacuation tips.

Since the weather is still what “We Boomers” Mk1 and Mk2 knew as summer, follow the guidance now in place. 'Tis definitely not Nanny State or Elf and Safety Gorn Maad. The past is a foreign country where serious mistakes were made. It isn't treason to say so. It is madness or plain evil to deny it and double down on them. Y'all have your best day now.
Hug for the pain from the exercise which will be of benefit long term. I'm not sure the old if it ain't hurting ... schtick ever convinces anyone. Best wishes/thoughts and prayers for PTSD deep dive - well supervised by trained professionals one hopes.Morning team BG...
A run of mid 7's despite eating less the last few days.
But on the bright side water intake much improved
Monday Physio says we can resume ...err physio now surgeons cleared me for duty
Uber down to hospital, used hospital rehab gym for first time ... cycling explained as 'good' for me
( Ballet/walking bars and a recumbent bike, to be exact )
Decides it's back to a light version of rehab exercises for now.
Outside Santander cycle rentals...mmhh
Bike out, cap on, crutch broken down & cunningly secured in & on rucksack.
...a lovely little ride.
Paid the next day, but that gym day pain, when you've missed a few sessions.
Growing used to the pain, though last night a simple turn at the bathroom door, had me pulled up very short (OUCH.)
Eased after a bit, but pain is certainly letting me know, she ain't gone anywhere until she's good and ready, and can always up her game, if I ever start thinking of ending our relationship & living without her
Not so hot today.
And time for a little petite déjeuner & cuppa before I set up for that deep dive the PTSD therapist promised ..eek
Have the best of days, y'all.

Enjoy those ballet bars @jjraak
Yup a simple turn as you come out of a doorway, to turn left in my case, causes a sheering agonising pain in my left knee no matter how careful I am.
Have a good day.
Yes @gennepher it is devastating. Yesterday there was a huge fire in Ashill, a little village not far from us, and some houses were distroyed.Many people left their houses with nothing, no meds, no documents. Devastating.
How very sad. Obviously losing your home and belongings is devastating enough but replaceable. The photos and memorabilia are irreplaceable.Yes @gennepher it is devastating. Yesterday there was a huge fire in Ashill, a little village not far from us, and some houses were distroyed.
A class member spoke about a friend of theirs who lives there who has been left with only the clothes he was wearing when he escaped from his house which has been totally destroyed. He had lost his wife 2 years ago and has lost all the photos and memorabilia he had saved during their long life together. He basically has lost everything. It is so sad.
That is truly terrible for him @Krystyna23040Yes @gennepher it is devastating. Yesterday there was a huge fire in Ashill, a little village not far from us, and some houses were distroyed.

I like these trees and their undergrowth and background @dunelmGood morning everyone from a distinctively cool start to the day here in the dark and dangerous north. The grand Westminster tombola has now given us a duo to rival even The Crankies or those two in the film Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. Walked into town yesterday and then down through the woods to the promenade. Quite a cool sea breeze on an overcast day but still a number of people on the beach, mainly school groups and the surfers of course. Funicular was closed, training new staff. Up the steps then. Bin day today, always exciting. Art bit - just a bit of ground to anchor the trees. Got fed up with it in the end. Hope you all have a cool and pleasant day of it. I shall make koffy and see what the day brings.

Thank you @gennepher. Yes, sometimes I just scrap the whole thing and move on but I may re-visit after a day or so and try and ‘rescue’ it.I like these trees and their undergrowth and background @dunelm
Interesting you say you got fed up with it. I do at times with pieces of art work. But this of yours looks a good one.
Enjoy the day...
Dogs much happier now things have cooled down, especially underfoot.5.5 this morning. So lovely feel a little chilly breeze on the early morning dog walk.
