And genes, Carinthia xx. Essential hypertension from the Irish side of my family. I am going to have to knuckle down and try to sort it. Cyber gin rocks - thank you.

Been to that Aldi and managed to resist kitchenalia in the middle aisles but I was seduced by a bunch of sunflowers

They had gorgeous roses called firecracker

Sort of rosa mundi but miniature form

Had they been fresher I would have got them but they were going yellow at the leaf so not in a good way

Rosa mundi

I love it

So today I have a leaking ceiling over a bookcase in my study, and the lighting circuit at the front of the house (and one set of lights right at the back) is tripping the circuit-breaker constantly so there are no lights in my study or in the kitchen. But the electrician is reasonably certain that the leak and the circuit being naffed are not related. Only since all the junction boxes are inaccessible between ceiling and tiled floor, he can’t check any of the circuit. Argh, on the whole.

I had a nightmare visit to the dentist today

I am consequently in pain

Lots of pain

May I whimper noisily?

Toothache is a complete bitch, Twellies, and you have my sympathy.

On the electrics front, the state-of-play until Monday is not terribly bright; he has disconnected the circuit on which the various things are not working (of which all the ceiling-lights in the kitchen and the light in my study are the important ones) in case it does anything worse, and left it in the hope it will have a chance to dry out and possibly come to its senses. He’s coming back on Monday to reconnect it and see where we go from there. We are agreed that rewiring that circuit anyway so that it makes some sense has to be done, but he can’t do that for a couple of weeks so crossed fingers for Monday!

I have a retired anglepoisealike on the desk so that I will be able to see the keyboard after dark. It is a little floppity but tolerable. Cooking will just have to be done during the hours of daylight.

What an absolute pain, Fishy. My fingers will be firmly crossed for you until Monday.

As noisily and as much as you like, Twellsy. Gin?

He tried to remove a tooth but the root broke and he is hoping that the other bit of root works its wway out

He broke the next door tooth while trying to remove the tooth so it has a temporary dressing

I may need lots of gin as a steriliser and pain relief

Oh good grief! No wonder you’re in pain, you poor thing. Sympathy and gallons of gin heading your way.
