That sounds like “what is the second most important thing to do, after you have dialled 999 and the ambulance is on its way?”
Answer: send someone out to wait for it at the end of the drive/outside the house so that your house-number or name being invisible from the road won’t cause any extra delay.

Dave.
Not the Innocuous Dave, Other Dave, who was at the time married to T.
He gave me a bottle at the end of an evening when we’d been drinking rather better stuff.
I got through about two sips. Innocuous Dave was there for the drinking, and gave up after one. The loo had never been so clean.

Mr Bee likes the cut of the first hen’s jib:
and says thank you. I rather fancy the last speckly jobs as we have recently returned from a rather sweaty walk in sunshine.
Hope your neck consultation is satisafactory, Twellsy.

That is the lovely Millie - who really does have the gentle, calm nature she shows in that pic. The last survivor of the “Crettyard Crew”:
Later than I promised, I know, but things have been a bit hectic…
Anyway, new chooks settling in nicely:

When Jules was injured in the dog attack, the vet suggested we put her with a “calm hen” for company while she convalesced. As one, we said “Millie”.

I am cross
AA man started the car
~But failed to see the fan belt was adrift so no power steering or brakes
Called a friend for the urgent summons to drive me
Doc called me when I was nearly at the hospital
I told him I was goining into the A&E andd he said they were ready to get him for me
After 4 hours waiting we left

Did a bit of recreational chainsawin’ this afternoon.
Some of the wood I was cutting was dry and tindery enough that it actually caught fire under the blade.
Didn’t spread though. Oh well.

Morning and the saga continues
Orthopod phoned to apologise and plead with me to get in to his clinic ASAP
Apparently I bruised my neck and with the arthritis a bit of spine might have broken off…

All the best, Twellsy. I have an interest in cervical spine injury, obviously, but want you to be well, too.
