Why is there only one place that sells coffee downstairs at Bristol. Busiest I’ve ever seen Starbucks.

Sailed through a testing situation at airport security. A huge relief. And now I can relax and fly (sort of relax)

Even though I’m looking forward to my trip away (not including the flights), I am also looking forward to coming home to her in a few days. She’ll have lots of fun with my lovely neighbours

Poor Margo didn’t know what was going on. Hiding in the corner of the sitting room, clearly thinking this odd behaviour at 4am meant a trip to the V E T

I think Margo senses I’m going away. She’s been following me from room to room for the last two days. Wanted to be almost constantly smooved #bristolian

Pop into town to get prescription. Last opportunity before I’m away and my current supply runs out. And the pharmacist has just started their lunch. Half an hour to kill in town

Ah, excellent. I’ve had my ‘important legal notification’ text from the DWP that I haven’t yet submitted my winter fuel allowance application. Must click on that link immediately

Pretty much every night for the last four years I’ve written “night night” in a message. Do you think auto correct or auto fill (whatever it’s called) has ever suggests the second ‘night’? 🤦🏻‍♀️

One for sorrow,
Two for joy,
Three for a girl,
Four for a boy,
Five to speak to customer services,
Six to return to the main menu,
Seven to hear those options again

For the first time in about a month I’ve done some weights. Repairing and strengthening a fragile body is delicate work. Need to have a brain on board too and when that goes walk about it makes the whole thing a lot more difficult
