I went upstairs to investigate an ominous ‘thud’

Thank God it was a laundry stand falling over, & not a bit more of my house dropping orff

Sigh

At least it didn’t go bump in the night, Carinthia!

I hope that you are coping with the breath-holding, Twellsy. I imagine that breathing rapidly must wash out your carbon dioxide stimulus to breathe and holding your breath occasionally may help to rectify this. Wishing you well, as ever.

I think the nice doctor is trying to get the rate of breathing to a more normal rate

36-40 breaths per minute is a touch high

If I do nothing not even croak at folk I am fine
But even eating a meal wears me out so I am puffing like the Flying Scotsman

Soo will I hope correct me if I’m wrong, but I’d guess what’s happening is that with the pipes not up to scratch you can’t eat (or talk) and breathe simultaneously, so you get short of breath. Happens to me sometimes with sinus problems. It’s a right bugger.

That, despite the spelling of Boyle’s, sounds exquisitely painful to me…

From our Church Newsletter/Bulletin on Sunday:

One of the Nuns is having driving lessons, & needs the services of any kind Parishioners to sit with her for driving practice

Her name is Sr Jude

Ahem

St Jude, for those who don’t know, is the Patron Saint of hopeless causes
