Morning all, Grey skies & mild here, Had an email yesterday from the seed potato merchants in Bolton to say your orders ready to be collected They're not usually ready until the end of February. I might nip out with mask on to collect them.

Morning Ian, it will be good for you to get out of the house and see something different, even if it’s to collect the potato seeds. This morning one of the Jersey cows dropped dead…….. heart/old age. Rest in peace.

Morning Phil, Yes it felt good to go out again,even the sun made an appearance. I usually take the bus to collect my spuds from there as it's easier & quicker trying to find somewhere to park but I thought I wont tempt fate sitting on a crowded bus so took the car.

It’s quiet in here tonight, I see there was a few this morning but it’s very quiet tonight.
It’s almost bed time for me so I should be around tomorrow.
I’m so bored while waiting for my cranial operation, I’m hoping that it way either this month or maybe February, if it’s still not happening how am I supposed to being soooooo booored,I don’t know how to not be bored .

Good morning all, good morning Richard and welcome to the day.

Did you get Stu’s phone number? I saw you were asking after it.

During the height of the pandemic, I was asked to go back to work in the NHS to retrain and work in the front line, but I wasn’t up to it. I don’t miss working in the NHS or doing the air ambulance MediVacs. Fortunately I am rarely bored and these days photography keeps me out of trouble.

As you know, it’s been 3 months since my big operation and I still have to be careful with what I can and can’t do. Recently my appetite returned and it’s a great feeling being able to eat again. My weight had dropped from 103KG to 73KG but since stuffing myself with chocolates, crisps etc it’s going back on.

I have another operation planned to repair an aneurysm in the right knee sometime in May or June. Hopefully that will be the last op.

To look at me now, I am a picture of rude health, I look great!

My relatives here wanted me to go bungee jumping with them off a bridge over a ravine as they are daring and sporty, but I gave them a “no thanks”…… they hate boredom and are always looking for a buzz…..

Boredom? I know the retirees on the forum have their own plans for not getting bored. Some play bowls, go fishing but I do know someone who likes to play with his cabin cruiser in his spare time. We are lucky to have some great cooks and gardeners on the forum.

Are you a gardener?
What other interests do you have to keep you going?

I am just getting up, open up the house, have breakfast and get on with the day

Good morning Jeff, all the best in wrapping up those final repairs to the drain.

When you have time, can you please patch over your comments about the “Thank You” button to Pete’s reply in the latest “Thank You” thread.

In particular when you mentioned your camera forum has the upgraded vBulletin 5 plus with the “thank you” feature, please pass this onto Pete.

When I checked your forum I couldn’t log into it to see it for myself, therefore it’s better coming from you

Today, we are having the solar wiring to the lounge lights checked, as they have started to flicker and later on the internet providers are sending engineers round to install a wifi booster upstairs. I recently bought a smart android TV for the bedroom and the signal for the internet sometimes cuts out or it’s slow and we get buffeting on the screen. We have to use a VPN in order to get BBC and ITV. I suspect this slows the internet speed. I am hoping the signal and speed can be improved.

The weather here is partly cloudy 23C
Sorry for the late reply Phil, only just seen this.

I will send Pete a message re the other forum and it's thanks button.

After I lost my last dog, I was convinced that I could hear the rattle of her ID tag on the collar link for weeks. I still think of her and smile as she helped me through some tough times. She was a rescue dog and we both had "issues" at the time. Time is a great healer.
