Dr.John Campbell did a youtube video on Invermectin very recently, it looks as though it may help in treating Covid19. Worth looking at on his Youtube channel.

Just watching the remake (2016) of@Krystyna23040 I cannot over emphasise how vital it is that you support Mr K in every way possible while he is involved in this vital work. I dare not ask others to risk themselves in such selfless perils with no reward save that of knowing one is serving the greater good.. @Muddy Cyclist I missed the Gold a few times- you?
We need to form a support group. I feel it only fair that we make Mr K an honorary member. Please let him know @Krystyna23040 - politely please. Meetings must remain top secret for now.
Mr K is very pleased to become an honorary member and has vowed to diligently continue with your work of international importance.

l will definitely support him in every way possible while he is involved in this vital work as long as long as it doesn't interfere with my work of extensively testing Montezuma 's 100% chocolate and Nespresso coffee

good evening all :)

4.4 this morning

another Sunday lunch at mum's, had to turn my pudding into something else today, I was aiming for gooseberry fool with some gooseberry puree from the freezer, I hadn't enough double cream left so I made it into a sort of fruit custard and served it over spiced lemon sponge, worked ok :D

Hope your day is treating you well :)

@dogslife - hugs, that's bad news :( I hope that things go well for your mum and the other residents.

@Muddy Cyclist - Hope the next appointment comes through quickly.

your Christmas cards are lovely and very effective, I like their strong graphical quality :)

@gennepher - very fine stroke work there @gennepher and Popeye looks contented :joyful:

@dunelm - another fine sketch, the foreground has given it a nice sense of scale against the rocks.

@SilverK - lovely jewellery with strong design :) very much to my taste

art bit -
an abstract seascape - every now and again I get the urge to splosh colour about :hilarious:

Thank you @geefull :) (PS: The thought of spiced lemon sponge served with your inventive fruit custard made my mouth water.:hungry:).

Interesting

Lauren has purchased
BOOTS DUAL ACTION nasal spray.

Currently in trials for NHS workers.
Seems a simple principle and as it hasn't caused any reactions, I think I'll pander to her and use it in the office.

Lost my test meter in July. Too mean to buy a replacement. Found it yesterday.
After cases of beer and too much cheer..........9.1 mmo/lt at 0600 just now.
There is a Neil Diamond lyric that comes to mind. "Hello (again)"

Today's Advent poem is Launde Abbey by Malcolm Guite himself. I hadn't realised today was St Lucy's day nor that it was originally the Winter Solstice. The explanation of the poem in the book (Waiting on The Word by Malcolm Guite) is magical and mentions Guite's sonnet sequence on The O Antiphons ( I like those a great deal) and Donne's A Nocturnal on St Lucy's Day. We miss a great deal being a Protestant country IMHO. Currently watching the C of E Chrsistingle service so ties in as if planned. I'm enjoying Advent more this year than at any time but if my postings on Advent are getting too much please let me know.
I am enjoying the poems you are sharing and furthering my education, please keep on posting. It I should also helping me deal with a few spirits I have bottled up. :)

Liked the imagery in Malcom Guite's poem.

Hi Ian, Isn't she the Patron St of Dominic Cummings? Don't you know! Spending his bonus on a shrine at Barnard Castle, perhaps! :)

Couldn't resist, now that I have my head up again.
Thanks all for the good wishes.

Glad you are back. :)

Good Morning and 5.8 for me today.

In the rain yesterday we noticed a cascade of water from roof to garden, not a welcoming sight. So today ladders to investigate. It looks like some facing boards moved and dropped taking the corner piece of gutter down so the flow along the gutter to the drain pipe is lower and the water can't resist leaping out. Whoever thought it was a good idea to clad perfectly good wooden eaves with plastic :banghead: Ah well will keep me busy this morning.

Keep safe and use the day well.

5.5 ↗️
Getting back on the horse slowly. Did not sleep
Much last night (or indeed any night since the demo rejection) and it is very hard to have any motivation for anything.

Setting myself one task a day to do and if I get more done then that is a bonus.

Today it is getting my self-assessment questionnaire done for the accountants and some other company admin done.

Hope everyone else has better, more
Productive days.

I gave you an emoji winner for getting back on that horse, but I want to give you a hug too. So here is a bottomless basket of hugs for you to take one when you need one @RFSMarch

Take care up that ladder @Muddy Cyclist
Have a successful day :)
