Good morning everyone from south Manchester where it’s still dark but psychologically I’m uplifted because of the winter solstice - we’ve turned a corner today.

I had no need to set the alarm this morning but have been awake since 4am due to my stuffy nose, sneezing and generally feeling meh. I did think of Marydoll an hour ago just waking up to go to the hospital! I hope your appointment goes well.

A day of resting up for me, keeping warm and well hydrated, taking the antibiotics prescribed for me at the urgent dental appointment yesterday which sadly precludes alcohol for the next seven days but hey-ho I’d rather be pain free (natch). I think I’ll start a new book and settle into it today.

Enjoy Wednesday all who can.
Here’s Matt illustrating what we’re doing to ourselves these days.

Good morning Mick and all who follow. Its 2°C in Glasgow.

I'm off for my early morning MRI. This is the only hospital in Glasgow, I haven't been to before. It means I can complete my Trip Advisor reviews of Hospitals 'wot I've visited I may even get a badge for completing the set.

I feel naked; no make up, no jewellery, no deodorant, no hair spray and my pain killing patch has to come off. I sincerely hope I do not meet any of my public.?

I will come back later to check if the PCR results are back. Fingers crossed for a negative outcome.

Mick good luck with your packing.

Wishing you all, the best day possible.

Good morning from a bright moonlit E Kent.
I hope you have a lovely time in IoW, Mick.
We’re still here. Half giving up the idea of reaching DD for Christmas, the other half living hope. ??????
Had a very quiet day. Had to go to shop for food as I had run everything down, to leave on Monday. Gave me the opportunity of getting bangers for DS. He loves them and never gets them in India.
Hope all the poorly, anxious and sad have a little chunk of light☀️In their lives and everyone has a chance meeting with a flamingo ?
Carpe diem, dear friends. ?????
