Anyone else awake? ?

Hello Oops sorry to hear that you’ve got that horrid cold, I’ve heard it’s called a Super Cold (I’m sure that it’s not so super).
It’s funny how many of us have to cow tow (sp?) to our dogs at this time of the morning …

Morning.
I’ve got this horrid flu/cold virus that’s going around, Mr Oops also has it and now Miss Oops has started to cough.
So I’m going to Google foreign holidays to try and cheer myself up with thoughts that, maybe next year, we can go away and get some sunshine, somehow sitting in the garden doesn’t feel quite the same.
I won’t go and make myself a coffee because the others have only just got back to sleep and if I wake the dog up she will think its ok to go out and play……….

Ah! That’s better now
Anyone awake?

Another bash

Aargh

And another one.
Why is it not showing up?

Bump…

Hello! Just enjoying a moon brew. Have made one for DH too.
I had to go downstairs to fetch the milk, so I did last night’s washing up, put a clothes wash on and fed the cat.
I feel quite worthy now!

Ooh, thanks Mattie.
That sounds perfect, I’m usually awake at 4am.
I usually do around 10pm to 2am; and then around 5am to 9am.
I know exactly what you mean about R3. Never heard of Plastic FM!
I hope that you and yours are doing ok, I often think of you

If you like birdsong, Fanny, Scala radio has it after about 0400. I normally listen to Plastic FM as R3’s music is very “worthy”…
My sleep is in the early night up to about 0200, but I do go to bed around 2200 and am usually very soon asleep.

I love Tweet of the Day on R4, but I often miss it

I love Nick Abbot too. I’ve been listening to some of his old shows on Amazon Music.
I often fall asleep ‘listening’ to SA, and he turns up in my dreams, following me around, droning on…

Yes the only use Steve Allen has for me is he’s so boring he often sends me back for a morning snooze Clive Bull is ok My favourite is Nick Abbott he makes me smile and says things I agree with When it gets too bad on LBC I go over the world radio they’re my two go to channels
In between playing some word or number games with people still awake or overseas

nanna8 I’ve just seen on another thread that your granddaughter is nursing on a Covid ward.
How is she doing? It must be incredibly tough.
What a star.

Hello BlueBelle I’m still here.
Clive Bull is on overnight, and he’s nice calming company, until that buffoon Steve Allen comes on…
I came to bed too early too

Hello anyone It’s 2.32 and I m awake and raring to go My mistake came to bed too early should have hung it out anyway just refilled my hot water bottle put LBC on and see if that ll lull me back to a few more hours

Oh, I’m sorry to hear about your daughter M That’s awful. You must be very worried.
I hope that you sleep well x

Oh, thank you both. He’s even getting talking therapy, which I never thought that he’s be keen on.
And he’s been referred to the Pain Clinic for his RA (which wasn’t even her department).

I think that all the hype about Banksy is ridiculous. He’s just a cartoonist.
Whenever I criticise him on here though I get it in the neck!
But if he’s the best that we can do art wise…
Everything is just so substandard these days

I think I will try and sleep now as it’s 3.15. Take care.

Medical staff are being pushed too much. My daughter has been off with PSD, some just give up and just leave.

We are taking quite a few medical people from overseas, including from the UK to help with our Covid outbreak. When I look at the numbers, though, we are far lower than many it is just that our Government is reactive not proactive so we don’t cope with any changes and never have.
Good that an OT came, Fanny and organised things. Hope you are feeling better today and that you can get your injection soon.

Pleased you husband it getting treatment and it sounds so bad to get anything done at the moment.

I’m still on bbc 4 and about the latest Banksy picture going for that disgusting price. Everywhere has got delivery problems but worst in the UK.

Hello, it’s not too bad at the moment. I’ve got to have an injection in my spine to release the trapped nerve, but I’ve had to cancel twice due to DH being really poorly. He’s doing okay now though.
An occupational therapist came to our house yesterday morning to assess him, and she’s referred him to all manner of services and clinics etc, some of whom got in touch straight away.
It was amazing! She was an absolute diamond.

Do you still listen to the World Service?
I heard an amazing program on there the other night.
It was called A Geochemical History of Life on Earth.
I didn’t understand 90% of it, but it was still interesting; and a lot more entertaining than it sounds.
I’ve got LBC on at the moment and they are talking about the ridiculous supply and demand problems we’ve got in the UK.
We haven’t got enough butchers now…

Hi Fanny yes I’m still here but have got into a non sleeping stage. How’s your back?
