Great fbg and busy bee so far this morning. Suduko then coffee in the sun sounds like a cunning plan. @dunelm hug for the funeral but the motor cycle cortege is lovely idea.4.6 this morning. Feeling lazy - dog walking and Aldi shop done but don't want to sit down at the computer and do admin stuff. Would much rather do today's Suduko in my newspaper.
My mother had a copper used to boil the washing mostly the bed sheets before the advent of the washing machine in most households.Do any of you know what a copper is? Not a policeman; this is something people heat water in. I just came across one in Village Diary, by Miss Read, and there is one in the farm kitchen in The Midnight Horse. Both books are fairly old so I don't know if coppers are still used and I have no idea what one looks like or how it works. The books don't describe them at all.
I've covered so many duty slots DJC it does take it's toll...plus my first job was at a location where they film a certain TV programme the place was 'littered' with TV producers who wanted to film me with my client...they wouldn't take no for an answer...finally I had to point out I was there to work not provide entertainment...it was so difficult & time consuming drumming that into them...as a result when I set off in the evening I wasn't in the best of moods...I wonder if those night duties hastened or contributed to the diabetes diagnosis...just a thought.
Its on channel 81 Talking Pictures TV on freeview….2pm every afternoon Monday to Friday.
Funeral today - motorcycle cortège requested by family of a fallen veteran - 10 of us for the cortège, a flag bearer and a bugler.

Not good - the tooth - well done standing your ground on that. Don’t run out of clove oil. Would a temporary filling help - they sell them at pharmacies and some supermarkets

Thanks @gennepher for asking about my eye which feels fine but looks scary. I cant believe you cant get emergency treatment and are in pain till Tuesday. My dentist will leave his home at any time on the clock to treat you at great personal expense to you. Hope the new clove oil helps are you unable to take painkillers?
I am sorry for all the broken teeth @Cumberland and @gennepher we would make a right trio of Halloween frights right now!
Have a great Friday everyone. Stay well, safe, get better.
5.9 for me, clinging desperately to 5s still.
Hugs to those with teeth problems @gennepher and @Cumberland. Toothache is horrible, you can’t think about anything else. Really good to see your fbg is still heading in the right direction though Gennepher.
Pop him on your lap DJC...he'll settle I'm sure.Ooh goody. Now if I could just persuade Dennis to have an afternoon nap then.....
Yes, @Viv19 there would be a metal container within the brick one.
On the farm where I lived it was an actual copper, and like your grandmother’s it was highly polished.
My job as a child was polishing the silver cutlery on a Sunday morning, a job I hated...
I have never polished as an adult...

I think it’s an absolute certainty that night working contributed to both our diagnoses.. @Rachox has also said the same thing after years spent nursing on night shifts.
It certainly makes interesting reading.Here’s what DCUK says about shift work and diabetes:
