Totally understandable. You need to look after yourself. I didn't take part but enjoyed seeing people's posts. Thank you for all the joy you bring to our timelines 🤗.

If you’re aged 18-65 please consider becoming a blood donor. It’s not painful and will make a huge difference to someone else’s life.

Listen to Dr H. Anything from the allium family will do. Oh and fresh
ginger (I saw you reaching for the Ginger nuts).

Hope that cold gets better soon. Garlic is great for that (if you can bear it).

Yes, I have been looking at PharmaDoctor - I think they are my best bet with a pharmacy about 15 miles away (Boots was twice as far!)

Morning Guy and ORCs, from Chatham station en route to today’s collection. This plaque commemorating Asquith Xavier is in the waiting room - he was a Windrush arrival and the first black guard employed at Euston, breaking an unofficial colour bar.

Large bronze coloured plaque behind a clear Perspex sheet, mounted on a grey tiled wall. The plaque has a large portrait of Asquith Xavier and accompanying text telling his story.

I had a mozzie in the bathroom yesterday. First one I've seen since I can't remember when. I successfully 'dispatched' it.

Worrying times but hopefully each passing day takes you all one step closer to a positive outcome. 🫂

I couldn't undo the buttons on my jumper so tried pulling it over my head but got it stuck.
I’m now sitting in A&E waiting to see a cardyologist.

ventilation, masking, hand washing and making the vaccine freely available. It's like everyone forgot all the lessons of the pandemic.

The care home had a vaccination plan for staff, residents and even some family of residents but the wave got there first 😥. I agree though, the UK isn't learning any lessons about mitigating measures:

Another reason they should also widen who is eligible. I shall be booking a Covid jab (and paying). I've had my free flu one. Still feel wrung out after whatever virus I had mid-September (didn't test positive for Covid despite repeat tests).

He hasn't had the latest vaccination yet either. I think they (the NHS as opposed to any one specific home) are going to have to start vaccinating ppl earlier next year...

There are many spooky stories connected to Cowdray Ruins. ⠀

The Grey Lady is the ruins’ most frequently seen spook and she manifests so often that her usual haunting route has been coined the ‘Lady’s Walk’.

Morning all. Had some not good news yesterday. My Dad's care home, to which we were hoping he would be discharged later this week, has Covid. He's getting over pneumonia 😥 What happens now? I guess the doctors will advise..

Fingers crossed your posts will whizz through the ether shortly (not technically how it happens, I understand, any more than stuff being stored on a 'cloud' but you know what I mean).

Good morning Bear!
I approve of National Dessert Day - surely something for everyone in that?
I could try National 'I love you' day but my family is Scottish and we don't go in for saying that sort of thing unless it's a crisis so it would terrify everyone 😉.
Happy Tuesday 😁

Oh thank God I'm not the only one who does daft stuff in their sleep for example I woke up shouting 'Call the police! Call the police!' Fortunately no-one at the B&B did...
