Found out what is the matter with my arm. It's tendonitis, I have ibugel (not going to work as I've been using it for a month now with no joy) strong co-codamol, I really hope that will take the edge off and an exercise sheet. I'm in bloody agony after all of the poking and prodding from the doctor so I'm really really hoping these painkillers kick in now. I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to the exercises and how much confidence I have in them working......:roll: I'm to go back in 2 weeks to see how I'm getting on.

No problem.

My holiday year start at the start of October for some unknown reason. I don't like being in debt for holiday, but also tend to take hols at Christmas which gives me a bit of a dilemma.

All the best

Been watching a 'Top of the Pops 1964-75 ' that I'd recorded and actually listened properly to most of the words to the songs, that we used to bop along to, for the first time.

Didn't realise before that 'Lola' was a transvestite........

I've just swept all the leaves up from the drive and added them to my leaf mulch pile. I started a leaf mulch heap last year and the leaves all turn into rich compost for the flowers beds. I used to hate all the wet leaves on the pavements now i just think good compost.

Over the last 4 days travelling to, around and back from the continent I've been wound up by: Numbers 1, 3, 4, 6, 10, 11, 13, 15, 16, 17, 19, 21, 23, 24, 29, 30, 33, 41, 45

My friend suffered a modified version of 48 - I'm also going to say we had issues with 37, if you include passport control in that!

I've also had an issue with 25 and come back to a huge pile of 7

And I've just annoyed everyone with number 51...

I'm taking my horde to Cosmos tonight (it's really happening lol) On the whole they should be good but I can't help anything Spawn3 might say or do before I can modify it lol. However I learned many years ago that unless someone actually says something to me, we just get on with it and they can get stuffed!

I went to my local charity shop to find something truly hideous to wear for Halloween,

Instead I came out with a 1970's pink floral print duvet and a stunning polka dot vintage dress!

I am beyond chuffed!

(Still need to find something for Halloween tho....)
