Ooof! I have just been unexpectedly Oafed amidships. He must have crept totally silently under the bed (look, I like being horizontal to read, all right?) to ambush me from the ‘wrong’ side, which I would argue indicates _mens rea_ as well as gitcattitude.

Oof & Uurrrkkk

Flump

Blood Test was very efficient. I was far longer waiting for the Pharmacy to open after Lunch.

I did a little shopping as I was out, & picked up a few odds & sods.  
Looked at FarmFoods, but the car park serving the small shopping centre was heaving, so I didn’t bother.

I have to take back several rows of bloody knitting. And no, the mistake happened last night - in case anyone was making an erroneous assumption about why

Er, when you say “take out”…?

Sounds like the sort of job best left to the professionals:

I have researched Miyuki 8/0 Chartreuse beady things - they are very beautiful. Sorry for the knitting irritations, Gus. Were I to take up such a skill, I suspect that every day would be fraught and irritating.

I made a decent Turkish meze, this evening. No walk, azzit woz just too hot.

Good nights, Cellarites,

One in our garden may chose to differ. It’s blooming humongous. It’s beak could end wars.

Love the red kites. None in these parts but I’ve always loved seeing them as I drive down the M40.

They are a-plenty at the Oxford Services too. Which is a, slightly, less dangerous spot to observe from.
