Awake and up all night

Defo only eat wholemeal bread and brown rice. Need not to eat any chocolate.

I eat wholemeal toast and Marmite and peanut butter in the morning. Also low sugar granola and yoghurt.

I make my bread 

How do you have your eggs.?

Hi Dingg. Sorry I missed you last night but I slept through.

It's good news that your hubby's responding to the antibiotics and I really hope his improvement continues. If he does get transferred, hopefully the new staff will be more vigilant with his care and more understanding of your feelings.

Sending you both hugs and wishing you a better day sweetheart xxx

I hope your appointment goes well this afternoon.

Compensation for the lack of McD's at my time of need yesterday was duly received lunchtime today, but in the form of a Starbucks white americano and a very flaky bacon roll. I stopped to eat and drink next to the river at Stony Stratford. Very quiet and a pleasant breeze in the warm sunshine. I felt sorry for a jogger (lad) who was making good speed along the pathway then suddenly stopped, grabbed his right ear, then began to pace searchingly back and forwards over 20 metres or so. I assume his probably expensive music earpiece had escaped. In my younger days I would have offered to help in the search but now I don't think he'd appreciate an old geezer falling into the pathside vegetation every few minutes. He still had not found his device when I drove off 15 minutes later. Mono jogging for him now, I think.  Ray x 

Also, I had planned to put my car through the wash because birds have used it as target practice. The carwash was closed for maintenance. No doubt when I go shopping this evening, the supermarket will be having a fire drill or something!!  Ray x 

 It seems you got your picnic after all Ray, and very nice it sounds too, especially the americano.

I know I'm the odd one out here, but I've gone into daytime hibernation to avoid the sun. One of its effects is lethargy, causing me to drift off at will, and I overslept this morning even after getting a solid 7 hours in. I've been playing catch-up ever since. I'd love to be able to get to bed and sleep through till autumn, but not to be.

Well I hope yourself and everyone else is lapping up the sunshine Ray, so have a good one my friend. Oh, and fingers crossed the soreness is easing off xxx

Interesting Gill. We've also gone to oversleeping and feeling lethargic in the day.

Hi Uki.

Hot weather's always affected me like this - feeling tired and irritable. Hayfever's also got me by the scruff of the neck and added to my woes.

I try not to be a miserable sod and especially with OH, but I just want to sleep. If you can do that, you do it my lovely as it will probably refresh you. I hope your wife is feeling better today hon, and Pippin is enjoying being a cat. Lucky boy  xx

I'll get on with my chores while snorting through the pollen clouds xxx
