They’re just messing with your head. Trust me on this.
Next door neighbour used to have a goat. As did we, approximately 50% of the time.

Would a bacon butty do aught towards lifting a sparrer’s mood?

Close-ish, but 47 miles of the drive is a bit on the wet side.
We have feral goats here too, Some of them are a bit on the large side:

Stick to soft foods for a day or 2 if you can, & be particularly vigilant about keeping your teeth clean.
Use a medical grade mouthwash if you have 1 - TCP if you want to diet 
You are a very high risk patient for any dentist to deal with ATM, & you don’t want to be carted orff to Orsepiddle.
The full face shields are in very short supply everywhere.
My eyes are starting to get sticky again, so I am starting on the Antibiotic eye drops, as I can’t risk things getting as bad as last time.
I remembered my time in the Girl Guides, & had bought a Noo bottle of the eye drops ‘just in case’…
Right
How’s the Fishly Finger today?

Not hurting, and in fact much as yesterday. A ring of dead skin round a small hole.

Surprisingly, I have one of those.
I have never sewed anything since I was 14, but I was obliged to do a year of ‘dressmaking’ at my rather old-fashioned girls’ grammar school. Well there I was sewing-machining away, in a filthy mood cos I hated it, when I was distracted and ran my forefinger under the needle. The needle went right through the nail, and right through my finger, trapping it in the machine.
It didn’t actually hurt at that stage, and I knew I’d be in trouble if Miss Greene (the cow - sorry but she was) realised what had happened, so I simply unscrewed the needle from the machine and extracted my finger complete with needle. So far so good, but then I pulled the needle out of my finger.
The blood spurted so far it hit the ceiling. A lot of it. At that point I screamed, and so did half a dozen other teenage girls,
I got into big trouble.

No running in the corridors.

Girls will be made to kneel on the floor after the register has been taken every morning, and they will be sent home in disgrace if their skirts are not long enough to touch the floor.
Never stopped us rolling them up at the waist afterwards though.
