 With all of the  Eurovision  hype I had the urge to have some sort of online friend meet up last night. I wanted to laugh a bit. It didn’t work out, which I was sort of thankful for as I’m working today and although Eurovision probably didn’t finish until midnight I did dip in briefly  I watched the stupendously dreadful disaster movie  Moonfall  instead.  That was two hours I would never get back . It left me feeling fed up  It’s been that sort of covid positive then negative shitty week. I’ve revisited lockdown with all of those horrid isolated connotations  I’m sat at the kitchen table with my bucket of coffee. It’s 5.45 am  My GP rang me on Friday and asked me to stop my long term antibiotics  I refused as I’m still waiting review by my urologist but he insisted that he at least change them to a different type. Which he did Subsequently I have the start of a urine infection this morning  from Going Gently ...

It is the middle of the night. Sleepless in Seattle Sheffield. Six hours ago, Clint and I drove over to Chesterfield Road to visit our closest Lidl store. There I picked up supplies for the next three days including a basted pork loin joint for Sunday dinner, a pack of nine toilet rolls, two bags of Jersey Royal new potatoes and a pint of fresh orange juice. There were no fresh eggs. After putting the shopping away, I went up to the top of our garden, beyond the vegetable patch, ready to light a bonfire. It was the first one I have had this year. Plenty of garden material had accumulated but it was nice and dry and I was confident the rubbish would blaze. Earlier I had split the pile in two, knowing that if I had left it as one big heap the conflagration would have too big and too unruly. with angry flames leaping twenty feet high. Since next door built a large shed at the bottom of their garden, I have had to be more careful with my occasional fires, ensuring they are well-contro...

  I popped in briefly  Spain was very good ….very Jay lo, with legs like Cyd Charisse Ukraine got a massive cheer and will probably win  Azerbaijan was cute a button with his beard (above) I loved Greece’s gentle covid ballad had me in tears, Iceland’s sister act was sweet too. Sweden was rated but I was bored a bit Australia was a camp feast I stayed until Sam Ryder with his big smile came on ….he’s was sooo sweet.

 The present routine continues for another day Up at 7.45 am walk the dogs briefly then put them in the car with the windows wide open. Make CBM a coffee and have it ready for him as he walks through the door at 8.20 am Take dogs for a long walk. Park in the shade at Sainsbury’s and have breakfast with a large bucket of coffee. Read the Daily Post from cover to cover  Drive home and drop the girls off at Trendy Carol’s  Mull over what to do. With the bathroom and covid I’ve not planned for much and I’m feeling a bit lost today.  It’s a glorious day and there’s a food festival in nearby Rhuddlan and a bee festival in pretty Llanasa but I can’t quite get going enough to go.  I haven’t had a shower since Saturday so I think that has something to do with it. And so I’ve clambered  over the workman’s tools and have holed up in the office surrounded by towels and toiletries and bathroom shite.  Here I will catch up with paperwork, emails ,...
