I've been binge watching "The Cockfields" all afternoon...such an underrated series, I think.

But then I bloody love Joe Wilkinson and would watch him in anything (even a Waitrose advert) tho for me, it's Sue Johnston that gives all the standout comedy moments! 😁

I am attempting a cup of coffee. ☕️

(haven't had one since Thursday!)

I'm sorry, it'll do what now?!

A friend included this in my birthday card.

I quite like it...tho, I reckon that fifty and sixty should be swapped round for me.

Plus, I was never sporty! 😁

My original plan for today was to drink beers and put my Christmas decs up (I'm already late doing it!)

But I have no inclination for the former, and zero energy for the latter...

Went to bed at 8 o'clock last night and got up about 10 minutes ago...now *that's* lurgified!

And my cough seems to have developed into that of a 40 Capstans a day person! 🙂

Also got home from my trip to discover that I have brought some sort of lurgy back with me...

Every bloody time I leave The Shire!

Think I'll just stay in my Hobbity bubble for the rest of the year. 👍🙂

Got back from my trip to find that my gifted soap had been delivered...

Thank you, Mr. S! 👍

A gloriously bright day for mooching about at Battersea Power Station...

Been a bit of day for celebrities...

First of all, I saw Josh Widdecombe in Exeter.

And then tonight, when we met my brother at his club* who should walk in for a late night drink, none other than the delectable Tom Burke! 🙂

*yes, I know it's wanky!!

Scenes from an Italian Restaurant...

We got given an "on the house drink"*

I said it was because they knew I was celebrating my birthday, but my sister says they just got the order wrong! 😀

*chocolate liqueur, Tia Maria, and rum. Yum! 😋

Okay, time to summon up some enthusiasm for the birthday celebrations to continue...

My mate is being allowed home today. 🙂

However, even with the stent fitted, her heart is currently only working at 35% capacity. ☹️
(this should improve when the meds start to work)

Somewhat annoyingly tho, I am off to London for a few days, which is nice for me, but delays being able to see her. 😐
Today has been a really weird day.

Lunch was planned with a group of my mates, but...

One of my bestest mates in the whole world suffered a double heart attack today, and although she is still with us...it has been a massive fucking shock.

My mates are my family too! ❤️

Anyway, I need a big beer.

My first festive sammidge of the season...
November 24, 2025 at 12:54 PM
12% should be enough to push it from my mind, right?

Hope so, cos I can't stop crying for her! 😢

Wanna hear a song about cricket?

Course you don't! 🙂

And all because...

...some dodgy geezer in a polo neck broke into my house! 😀

The words "creme egg" and "protein bar" don't even belong in the same sentence, let alone the same product...

And if this monstrosity is "soft core" I'd hate to see what they make that is hard core! 😀
