Well it's out there, no going back now folks.

Another day of lock down, usual turn over in bed and think what day is it, someday all day, any day, every day....oh ground hog day......Get up do I shower do I stay in PJs do I even look in the mirror, best address all three. Had brekki cuppa and asked Alexa whats to do today, she didn't answer, I swear she only listens when I am blaspheming, or talking about how I would run the county, my daughter worries because she thinks I will be whisked away for inciting myself into a revolution, oh well probably someone to talk to through the bars....Nooooo  Alexa  don't listen.

Looked in the fridge  nothing I fancy, or maybe someone I could shout and say you want a cuppa, or you fancy a fry up oh its endless the conversations you take for granted, and miss them like crazy on your own.
 Loaded up my back pack, the one I spoke about earlier that I absolutely love cus its luminous in the dark, not that I've been in the jungle or anything like that, just fighting my way through the the non distancing trolleys near the Loo rolls. A walk to the furthest super markets around here, one on my door step Morrison's but tend to walk to Aldi just so I can walk with a mission then maybe to Lidels. On the walks there is always essential supplies that are needed on route to keep the spirits up. Didn't see many ducks today, too cold I would say so took a couple of photo's of my own family of quacks.

Fave backpack and sweets for walking.


My ducks trying to escape.


Now for a change of venue for  more fairy lights from B&M  these  help brighten the evening up when looking out in the evening, and even more plants. Now Alan Titmarsh I am not, and not got a clue what they are but they say talking to them helps to grow, well they don't answer back but I got fed up talking to the mirror and to be honest the person looking back in the mirror she can be grumpy, so give her a miss someday's.

Essential supplies Gin and fairy light, priority's my dear. 


Have my safe distancing walking partner Steve, does help when I have loaded up with non essentials like plants he does carry them bless.I will have to check in again at work tomorrow as I am working from home. My VPN has still not been loaded so I can enter onto progress notes after speaking with my patients.Telephoning them I think is more stressful as they don't understand they are elderly. Any way digressing again which I do tend to do when speaking with friends and family, but think they are so linked into my bus talking as I call it, jumping on a topic ringing the bell, getting off and then jumping back on at another stop to carry on the conversation........so tend to write the same ...sorry.

Tonight is our live bingo session we so look forward to this, its just for fun but the banter is really funny. We have really bonded down the street and think people are taking care everyone is ok which is lovely, hopefully we will carry this on as a nation afterwards who knows, as Steve says Nobody Knows, its his favourite saying now, used to be, might dooo maybe,or Im only from a  little village lol but it makes us all laugh.Funny just was writing about Alexa Echo, and my phone is talking to me weird or a conspiracy, its saying things to do when your phones off line..let me know folks if this is happening to you.?

Hope it's a winning ticket 


Smoked Mackrell bought today was lovely for tea, had it with pea shoots and cherry tomato's, not been eating to well for a long time since Melvin died, tend to have bags of crisp  sandwich and cereal if I fancy a snack so must get a grip, love cooking but as my children say, good job we had a cat and dog when they were young, but have improved and really love cooking but no fun for yourself.
I do like storing up the programs, I like so I can binge watch, I remember when going through my cancer chemo treatment that nearly took my life,  Mossie set me up with Game Of Thrones gosh that got me through some dark days, watching 5 or 6 episodes at a time, so in the habit now and enjoy it better, in the line of duty kept me going too I sometimes thought in my delirious state I was H, Kalisy from G O T would have been better but at that time H was good, to think of it Paddy from Emerdale would have done cus I was his double with moon face on Steroids and no hair .

Me and my friend Max on a birthday treat  during chemo, Emerdale comes to mind.


Thailand seems so long ago now and talking to people on phone all can't wait to go away, I will be progressing, of course with my Mountaineering  and abseiling skills, which entails me climbing the walls and abseiling out of the bedroom window. No black mask or swag bag and stripped jumper, but who knows a new career. Think time for a cuppa before the excitement starts,  fingers trembling dobber pens at the ready its electrifying  and on that song title  see ya later.

..Bingo took place , bated breath anticipation it was all going on, would there be a cough in between number calling like the serial Millionaire, no just the dobber pen falling on the floor and Dan the live caller rattling his balls.....and for those who are not familiar with bingo, Dobbers are not the anything for the weekend sir, and his balls are in a wire cage being turned for the drop out ball, so we all clear no porn going on in this Blog.....mmmm ahr well can't have everything on lock down. Didn't win but banter again is the prize so look forward to Wednesday and Friday,

Think I may now switch on to all my programs that are stacking and racking, as Geof in Corro been caught in another devious act, has the cuckoo flew the nest in the serial, worse as Postman Pat got his PPE equipment and Jes got a mask, couldn't bare it if Puff the magic Dragon just puffs off. Going to make a cuppa and relax so will say goodnight from me and goodnight from my reflection in that bloody Mirror. Night all........x

The only lock I need in my life.

As my picture depicts to many locks are around now, the shackles are on us all, so life again revolves around how we are going to cope. I se...
