Very wild there last night. No wonder no animals visited your garden.
I amazed that the red buckets made a lovely flower kaleidoscope @gennepher

No wild or stray animal visits when it is very stormy...

Creative with Laboscope kaleidoscope app.
I tried several ideas but none of them worked. Then I saw some red buckets in a large Plantpot. It looks like a flower again!
Night night
Sweet dreams

Thank’s @gennepher. I make my koffy in a cafetière - current one is insulated, which is nice. A splash of cold water before putting my scoops of ground koffy in so that the hot water doesn’t burn the beans so to speak and then leave for a good five minutes like you would for a pot of tea. A slight plunge and lift lets the grounds drop through the water before a full plunge (without resistance). A bit of a faff on I know, but it works for me.Looks like a road now in front of the house now, a bit safer than the river that was converging in front of the house, with the high probability of flooding @dunelm
Enjoy that expertly made coffee...
Thank you @ianpspurs and yes, tea in a pot is much better than tea in a bag. Dad always bought tea from Carwadines in Bristol when it was a thing. Smashing rendition of In The Bleak Mid Winter.Morning all from what was an exceptionally dark start to Wednesday in L.A. Even with tree lights and the failure of the Advent wreath candles timer the light struggled to overcome the darkness, but it did so very on point. @gennepher thank you for sharing the video and creative which to me looks more like a paean of praise to Angry Birds - my bad? So kind of you to continually share your videos and creatives and wonderfully kind to research all those sources of help for @Lamont D. @dunelm good news on the results of the ritual bloodletting. I too feel some loss of manhood due to my height shrinking with the passage of time. I liked being 6 feet 1 - 5 feet 11+ has zero currency in the manosphere. All three of our boys are at least 6 feet 4, I feel like an Oompa Loompa near them. Thank you for sharing another splendid piece of your art. Do enjoy your coffee. I imagine that, for you, shop bought Koffy is similar to tea for me. Thanks, but I know how to do better. @alf_Josiah hugs and wishes for all to be successful so that a return home can be achieved. @Krystyna23040 those lesson plans sound amazing and so typical of your care and knowledge. There is no such thing as naughty food, just that some of our bodies are unable to process them to an arbitrary level within a predetermined time frame: at least in quantities which make sense. I had an idea what I wanted to write but sadly this is how it turned out, I sincerely apologise. Do have a carol - I like the carol a great deal (memories dear boy, memories) and am fortunate enough to have heard it performed in that wonderful setting. No grandchildren today as there is a nasty bug doing the rounds locally so they are at home. Enjoy whatever portion of Wednesday floats your boat.

I feel sad/guilty that my take has changed your view of the piece. Sadly now the Genie is out of the bottle I can't undo any harm. Can you ever forgive me dear lady?Thanks @ianpspurs for your compliments...
I thought it was a festive looking flower, but alas all I can now see now is Angry Birds. It does have overtones of that, which you obviously saw. You're free to see whatever you want to in my kaleidoscopes.....
It is okay... @ianpspursI feel sad/guilty that my take has changed your view of the piece. Sadly now the Genie is out of the bottle I can't undo any harm. Can you ever forgive me dear lady?
thanks @gennepher, I will see what happens Friday.Hi @Lamont D
About 15 years ago when there were GPs at my surgery, I had an issue with one of them. I contacted the practice manager got nowhere, and so I then contacted the head of the Flintshire health board. I was not supposed to do this, I was supposed to go through other channels. But by contacting this guy, he gave me a lot of useful advice and went through various booklets and showed me how to navigate the system. This great guy has long gone.
But I was googling how to do it from your area or what to do.
Google threw up this set of suggestions...
"If you have concerns about your GP, you can:
If your MP is as useful as mine, then he's no more use than a chocolate fireguard as regards surgeries and GPs.
- Talk to the GP or practice manager: You can raise your concerns verbally with them.
- Make a formal complaint to the practice: If the issue isn't resolved within one day, you can make a formal complaint.
- Contact NHS England: You can contact NHS England to make a complaint about your GP.
- Contact your local integrated care board (ICB): You can contact your local ICB to make a complaint about your GP.
- Contact your local council or local Healthwatch: You can contact your local council or local Healthwatch to find out about complaints advocacy services in your area.
- Contact the General Medical Council (GMC): The GMC is an independent body that regulates doctors in the UK.
- Contact the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman: If you're not satisfied with the response from the practice or NHS England, you can ask the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman to look into your complaint. "
I hope you don't mind me googling on your behalf....
It does say above that if you make a formal complaint to your practice, it appears it has to be resolved in one day.
If it is not, then you can take your formal complaint further.
The what?7.0 this morning. Some rather naughty food late last night, so actually I think I got off lightly with that reading.
Yesterday did two lesson plans for class members over the Christmas vacation. I focussed on keeping their bodies supple with rotations and gentle stretches which will also help the synovial lymphatic system to work well.
Have got lots of lovely emails thanking me for them.
Thank you. How very curious you should use the word entitled. That is a word I have heard applied to myself a few times but I'm always convinced those using it have completely misunderstood both myself and the meaning of the word. You on the other hand have used the word perfectly.It is okay... @ianpspurs
No problem...
all is forgiven....
I will try and find some more red colours to do a different kaleidoscope for today...
All is well.
You are entitled to see and say what you want when you look at my kaleidoscopes.
You should always earn the word entitled.Thank you. How very curious you should use the word entitled. That is a word I have heard applied to myself a few times but I'm always convinced those using it have completely misunderstood both myself and the meaning of the word.

Mine was mainly Irish and a small percent Belgium though I m not sure what would be classed as Belgium before it was Belgium if you know what I mean .I thought for a while today that I was going to be cut off from you all for a bit - my Bluetooth connection for my keyboard failed so I couldn't even key in a password to get into the forum, or anything else for that matter. I just had to wait though, for Neil to surface (after another late night) and he has just sorted it out for me, connecting to another Bluetooth link on the PC. I didn't know there was one so could do nothing when the keyboard failed. I am so lucky to have him around.
I ceded my bedroom to a spider again last night. Earlier in the evening, I found quite a large spider in my bedroom and scooped it up with my spider catcher for Em to put out for me (I was having difficulty moving at all just then, after legs bandaging day) but when I went to go to bed, there was another high up in the corner, just where my spider catcher wouldn't reach. Neil was quiet and I thought he'd gone to sleep, so didn't want to wake him to evict a spider for me and decided to sleep in the kitchen. However, I had just settled into my chair with a blanket when Neil appeared, so he dealt with the spider for me and I went to my own bed after all.
Got my DNA results back from Ancestry today - a bit disappointing really since it is very vague giving a result of 73% North West European. Well, that was fairly obvious any way. However, it did give me 3% Icelandic, 3% French and 15% Germanic. As Neil pointed out, these figures don't mean that none of the 73% is French, just that the 3% is found mainly in France, amongst all the rest. The Norwegian content is smaller than anticipated. I don't know that the information has advanced my knowledge by very much, but I wonder who the Icelanders were.
BG at 04.00 was 6.5. My changed dose of basal insulin seems to be working.
EDIT: Alistair was in with the mail and he said he had been reading that some Icelanders have a trace of some very ancient DNA - some of the first out of Africa seem to have arrived in Iceland without mutating. That's a puzzle. How did those ancient folk get there? Probably indirectly, but even so...

Hope the nap does the trick. Thank you for sharing the video and wonderful kaleidoscope. I admire the fact you give at least all the cats names. Will the new badger acquire a name, wasn't one called Kissy Kissy? I meant to ask, after all the fuss is your new heating system doing the job well?Fbg 7.1
Wildlife videos nighttime
New Badger & the Cats
The new Badger often focuses looking for food around the bird table.
Half way through, you can see Cat Jade's white back paws slowly sneaking out of the same frame she is sharing with the new Badger. The cats appear to be relatively comfortable with sharing the ground at the same time as the new Badger is on it.
Later blackcat Amy wanders through, and also Midnight who's doing a last check of his territory before he comes back to my bed...
