thursday third verse, different from the first

'ning

sun, roads, volcanoes, etc.

shiny bike packed, brekkie, head to airport, bubbly lounge, bubbly flight, limo to london, sigh

the tabby has decided not to modify the earth's precession as it'd be unfair to the southern cats, and the snow leopards and pallas's cats would miss the snow

my bike - faster than god's and twice as shiny

    Into work for the last time this year - and departmental beers after work. Should be a good day. To top it off I'm taking an extra couple of days at the start of Jan which means I'm not back until the 6th 🙂

    Onwards with trying to sort that skiing holiday.

    "Oh the cow kicked Nelly on the belly on the farm, the cow kicked Nelly on the belly on the farm, the cow kicked Nelly on the belly on the farm, and the farmer said it will do her no harm. Second verse, same as the first, a little bit louder and a little bit worse".

    Morning

    It's dark and I don't even know if I am posting in the correct Thursday thread so in the interests of harmony, i'll post in both but unlike this one, I won't sing 'The cow kicked Nelly on the nelly on the farm'.

    Bloody hell it's dark. Cooler today. Much more brr but going mild again over the weekend. Mild usually means precipitation. Wonky weather. The Tundra is now emitting carbon instead of being a carbon sink. We really are fucking the planet up.

    Much coffee required.

    Morning folks,

    Back shirking from home after a few days in windy Witney. Going to the cafe with a colleague from the former paymasters and to see what's going on there. At least I get to wobble through the park and say hello to the deer.

    Should pretend to do some work really...

    So sorry SG! I was obviously half asleep whilst composing my thread title and hadn't noticed you beat me to it!

    Obviously my sleep was better than I thought and I only recall waking at 04:15 for a moment! Makes such a change to have better sleep for once.

    I've no idea why these titles come to me 1st thing in the morning. It just seems once I can work out what day it is the rest just follow in a flash. For the remainder of the day I'm all inspired out!


    Sometimes. Maybe. Possibly.

  • No imagination to come up with a second Thursday post....

    Morning

    Its very noisy here as the joiner is multi tooling the bottom of the kitchen units to fit the new flooring in. I would go a ride but it’s a bit nippy at the moment.

    very smooth/fast check-in, with added entertainment as agent rejected interloper who wasn't in club, several bubblies and four courses of tapas in the lounge, hic

    decided to eat plenty as having seen pics of the onboard traditional 'christmas dinner' option, i've ordered the avml special meal instead, it might be lovely, it might be grim, ether way it'll be accompanied by bubbly

    warm sun here on the bijou terrace, met office says cold in the uk, may need to arrange a holiday before next holiday before next holiday

    Best nights sleep of the week, thank you Sauvignon Blanc...

    Doggy walk around the local lake this morning, now in work contemplating life.

    Very positive review sesh with renal consultant, he's impressed with how well and quickly I'm recovering. He'd been present when I was on kidney dialysis / life support, but I don't remember that 😉 Numbers and trends all looking good. 👍 Effectively discharged from that area, local GPs will do 3 monthly checks that all still ok.

    Might celebrate with a glass or 2.

    Maybe / maybe not. That's not up for decision any time soon. Does save on the bog roll though.

    Good news Loon! Bet that's a relief.

    F' me! Blood glucose of 2.9 is an interesting feeling! An hour after a big mince pie too. Been fitting new oven that was fouling gas pipe at the back. Wife suggested cutting legs off cooker unit to lower it. I trimmed an inch off each and it fits a treat. Don't need emergency gas fitter to move pipe now. Can have Christmas lunch and get a new hob at leisure in the new year. Win win. Well done wifey.

    Now just have to move electrical socket so cable on tumble dryer reaches. It's 2 inches short. Bugger.

    Still no idea where my fridge freezer is. They promised tomorrow but no comms confirming. W anchors.

    Finished up at work for the year, been out for a few beers and now headed home. Good lie in tomorrow is on the cards.
