The ‘slough of despond’ between Christmas and New Year

The time between Christmas and new year has never been particularly pleasant because nothing is going on, everyone is unavailable and there is very little to do. I've decided to make this year an exception when I am spending more time reading and of course a lot of time on the computer making entries to my COVID site. Being on your own or one other does not have to be a negative experience if...

To the RUH hospital in the rain obediently wearing my mask

Obedient means   'complying or willing to comply with an order or request; submissive to another's authority.  Example "a docile and obedient dog" The only reason I wear a mask is because in the hospital you have to.  The staff are so thoroughly 'trained' that they will reprimand you on pain of losing their jobs. So, its a  rainy and miserable but warm day.  I arrive early to enjoy the ever...

As I have said many times this is a place...

Wetherspoons have made a great effort to confront the COVID charade by a front cover and  13 page insert in their News Magazine.  They have made a real effort to sum up the whole world-wide situation, trying to look at both sides.

A ghastly Christmas card

  I thought I had seen it all. This is a Christian card or I suppose it is. I cannot describe in how many ways this is in bad taste. I wont say who sent the card. We had an idea today that if the winter is severe and there are power cuts we would offer our bungalow as a 'day centre' as gas central heating would not work so our log fire would come into its own. Some would not come due to...
