Safe journeys, Fishy and the Innocuous One.
Boring is good. You really don’t want it too exciting when snerr is involved.

Exciting and sner are decidedly not fun while driving
I am contemplating a swim today if yon bull can be unplugged from his computers…
Believe me this is not an easy feat!

I have just been for a nice long swim
720m
And a lovely elderly man who was in the pool at the same time stopped me on my way to the changing room and told me I made his day when he was there at the same time as him
Because I smile all the time I am there he said
Isn’t that a nice compliment?
Now to make stuffing rolls for dinner

That’s good, Twellsy
How warm is the water ?

That might depend on how many of Twellsy’s fan base it contains at any given time, and the squeakwin quotient ;- )

The water is nice and warm but not over warm - enough so there is no shock of cold but cool enough to exercise in
And the disabled changing room and shower is well fitted out with a proper seat for us wobbly folk
I shocked the staff by taking a big tub of choccies in to thank them for their kindnesses and care - apparently all the fitness freaks would never think of bringing a treat in to say thank you and happy Christmas

The Lad & DiL go to a gym 3x weekly where they have a personal trainer
The Christmas ‘do’ was held at a private house last week, & the Fit Buggas got more Hissed than they have done in the last 10 years, so they do let their hair down sometimes…

I was arsked to the Christmas Do for members of the hotel’s leisure club but I did not go
The way the staff look after me and are ready to help is wonderful
I like the way they are happy to care for my knitting or shopping baskets at any time while making sure I can get to the disabled changing room

Well that is very lovely of them, but possibly there is the tiniest element of, ahem, disarming you before you get to public areas where people are scantily clothed and eminently perforatable. On reflection, dere Twells, this post says a lot more about me than you, and none of it good.
Heigh ho, there are people I would very much like to perforate myself right now. Grrrrr.
(aye the Christmas spirit didn’t last long with Gus, now did it?)

Can we make it about half the people driving on the M4 this afternoon and evening?

I am taking it that this means you are back and flumphing. Which is good to know, because I have passed the time today by being a tiny bit anxious about everyone I care about out on the roads.
regarding your request, the spirit is willing but the puzzle is how to catch them.

Ach Gus
I go swimming before I do the shopping with my rehab assistant so I arrive avec me plastic baskets and me full A4 size notepad so they look after those bits and bobs while smiling and making sure I am secure is just a joy and part of the courtesy around this area

An excellent idea, Fishy
Was Innocuous Dave happy to be going back to his own place?

dere Twellsy, possibly the smiling is also because they are glad to see you? Sorry, I was fooling around and meant no offence to the Guardians of the Pool - that makes them sound suitably myffic and mystic - or to you. Gxx

Tickled pink, Carinthia, and raring to start finishing tidying it ready for people to come round for New Year’s Eve. We paused to buy him three lamps, a trio of plastic plants (two bamboo and a sort of bullrushy thing) and a rug in Ikea, those being on his list, plus three or four other things which he hadn’t got on the list but knew he wanted like a chest of drawers at 30% reduction plus 10% for a Family Card, and a non-slip bathmat, and a pair of socktopodes, and some non-slip webbing to go under the rug which is to go under his desk and protect the fitted carpet. When I came away he was in the process of firing up The Coffee Beast to make himself a brew for the evening.
