Your an example to us all Alf and every day show us how precious life is.Good Morening Ladies and Gentlemen and those who carry the donor card and have discussed it with their families.
Let’s get the mundane blood sugars out of the way. 6.2 this morning.
Today is an important day for me here in Tilehurst Towers.
It is 32 years ago today that I received a Liver Transplant, everyday I think of the young man that died and his family that made the decision to donate his organs. To them my heartfelt thanks and also condolences.
Their decision has enabled me to watch all my children grow up and see all my grandchildren.
I also think about the medical personnel who have kept me alive. Thank you.
When I walked out of the liver transplant ward to go home for the first time I vowed that I would try and live a normal life as much as I could as an example to other transplant patients.
I do think to a certain extent I have been successful.
I ride motorcycles, 42 miles early this morning. I am learning to play the keyboard or as I call it plinky plonky, I make things for children and the occasional planter. Look for humour in every aspect of my life and try to make people smile.
Thank you Ian.Congratulations on those 32 years Alf and good man for the thoughts about the young man and his family. I have the attached as an annual reminder in my google diary but left that open at November overnight so forgot to congratulate you earlier. Sorry I forgot. You have used the time gifted you enormously well, just as you see fit and as your particular talents and personality dictate - normal is different for us all. We aren't all meant to be Deborah James (Bowelbabe) or Rob Burrow. I very much look forward to getting it right next August.
Thank you Lindisfel.Your an example to us all Alf and every day show us how precious life is.

Deborah James; Rob Burrow. In their cases I'd, respectfully, vehemently disagree about ignorance being bliss.Thank you Ian.
Unfortunately I have no idea who Deborah James is or Rob Burrow are, but sometimes ignorance is bliss.
Thank you @ianpspursBecause you're worth it. Enjoy the truncated summer hols.
Happy Transplant BirthdayGood Morening Ladies and Gentlemen and those who carry the donor card and have discussed it with their families.

Thank you for the education. Sad to read.Deborah James; Rob Burrow. In their cases I'd, respectfully, vehemently disagree about ignorance being bliss.
Thank you Gennefer
Congratulations on your amazing anniversary - not amazing that you are still here, but amazing that you did receive that donated liver 32 years ago. That family must be proud of the good that the young man was able to do for you and probably for others as well. You are an example to us all in overcoming obstacles and remaining good humoured throughout.Good Morening Ladies and Gentlemen and those who carry the donor card and have discussed it with their families.

Thank you @ianpspurs - 24C - I can take thatThank you for sharing another example of your artistic skill and a new way of gently denigrating Ikea whilst taking advantage of their "competitive" prices. I think there are words for that, though I doubt one would view them as a complimentEnjoy the shady walk and have a song to cheer you on your way. Predicted high of 33C here for Monday but only 24C for your area of the D and D.
Thank you @gennepherA forest of different trees @dunelm
Brilliant, you do well with the details of different trees. Love this...

Thank you for sharing the creative. I hope you can get some relief from the heat and will have you in my thoughts and prayers tomorrow.Fbg 6.9
Day has gone too hot to breathe...
Me flaked out besides my master humidifier.
Cats, including Midnight gone to cooler ground, nowhere to be seen...
I am lying between a sea of fans and humidifiers.
Doing my breathing exercises....
Looks beautiful outside, but not for me to be in it...too much pollen there as well.
There are clouds of cabbage white butterflies, their little bugs having feasted on the remains of my vegetable garden.
Eyes are itchy in this...
Eyes mask back on in a mo...no complaints because my brain is giving me fantastic intense vivid (why this vivid?) pictures to paint...problem is, I need to live a thousand years to paint them all. I had better become an immortal...
Creative...finger painting with black ink, and using Japanese Kuratake pens. The photo shows the white page lilac, but it is pure white. My bedding is lilac, and so it is a reflection of that. This painting needs a bit more work, but that is not happening today. I will start a new one tomorrow...
Got my tie paisley neckerchief thingy from Amazon with water absorbent beans in the neck part. Soak it and it keeps wet and cool for ages. It helps me breathe better too. And got the scarf thingy that you soak and wring and put it round your neck and that keeps cool for awhile as well. I put that on top of the wet necktie thingy...it helps create a micro climate in my face area...
Wildlife video
A very busy, thirsty night in the nighttime video
I had to speed it up by 2 to get most of the action in...
Badgers & Cats - a long night
57 secs
Make the most of the rest of today.
I am just going to make a jug of water with ice cubes...
