On the strength of the specialists suggestion I can now drive safely again, the wife has gone off to work… and thence to the theatre. The kids are naturally at school, and each has an ‘extra-curricular activity’ tonight so won’t be around until gone 4:00. The visitors are running out of the cash they need … More Quiet… too quiet!!
Maybe not in every way but I did feel I was getting back to normal this morning. Then I changed the dressing… which stunk. The nail looks like it’s hanging off and it really isn’t looking as good as I’d hoped it might. In an effort to ward off any *more* problems, I’m off to … More Every day in every way…
Lowering the tone slightly from the last post… .. the wife called me in to the ‘study’ this morning and told me to see what the ‘white thing’ was on the top of a set of cupboards. Thinking it was something the kids had left behind when they left for school I reached up. Then … More Spot the cat.
The toe hurts, as you’d expect, but I’ve been ‘back on my feet’ most of the day (on and off) so am a bit weary. Though I’ve done a bit of clearing up and tidying, I’m still not making any attempt to drive, and don’t intend to until either I’m sure the toe bone has … More Back on my feet again.

Even so there is one flower than appeals to me more than the others, and this is it… my two year old Begonia hybrid! 🙂 As you see, … More Favourite flowers: Begonia hybrid
Thinking of the problems the neighbour has started me wondering what would happen if someone wanted open a business in our street. I eventually got round to wondering what if *we* opened a business… and the only one I could see someone as idle as me coping with would be running a small ‘hostel’ type … More A nice little earner!
A neighbour arrived just after dinner tonight. She was carrying a petition she wanted us to sign asking that planning permission be denied for a residential property backing on to them to be converted into a dentist’s surgery. When we bought this piece of land. the developers put all sorts of covenants on the sale … More What price a dentist?
What’s new on the mouse saga you ask? Well last night the cat caught the mouse once more. Unfortunately… for us if not the mouse… the visitors seeing the cay once again batting the mouse around, decided to intervene and during the ensuing melee… the mouse again made its escape. I was *so* pleased when … More More on the mouse!
Finally got voice and pictures organised with the UK… I can finally talk to the oldies and see pictures at the same time. We’ve been trying to use MS-Messenger… (Windows Live version) for a while but we just couldn’t get both voice and picture working. However my father and I have both installed Skype which … More The Masters Voice
