Well ....... it looks a promising day today
Had managed to keep windows slightly open & locked of course for insurance company I am with
Was 'blowing a Hoolie' as they say in parts of 'the British Isles'.
We're not hitting the high's here up in the market town known as ....... The Gateway to the (Yorkshire) Dales.
Weather where I have lived for a goodly time - well over 30+ years ... = ... has its own 'Micro-Climate'.
The interesting cloud formations roll around the 'basin' that the town is in.
Mum, a weather-watcher would open the curtains and see which way the 'Wind was Blowing'.
You don't get 'Flat-Bottomed' clouds here.
Breathe ... ... myself thinking of Fabulous Freddie in the 'That Cat shiny waistcoat' ... = ... with a Gorgeous long haired cat under each arm.
*It's A Kind of Magic* ..... ..... ..... Fave Queen song ... ... ... A+*****+A
[Edit] ....... Spelling.

Thanks @Cleoriff
Read your comforting reply earlier in the day when upstairs in a new hang out of mine ... = ... Cozy Cuppas Snack Bar ....... couldn't remember when I last ate anything & what ? ... ... ... Nigel the proprietor cooked me one white thick slice of 'Cheezy Beans with a Runny Egg on Top' ... = ... fortifying & I didn't sick up !
Sorry have had 4 tests in January & February @Cleoriff
Gets text / email from GP place / Hospital to be put on waiting list for a Gastroenterology !
I told GP I didn't want an operation to check out further stricture way down in my digestion system, at my ago of 70 with loads of belly fat to go through.
It does depend upon what I eat.
Told GP I eat slowly & with small bites = she seemed to approve of that.
Upon follow up call from her she didn't let me complete what I was saying. Had acid reflux for many years = Rennie spearmint at night when you settle down for sleep.
Some Very Good News to share:
Heard today someone I admire is going to have a baby on NYE New Year's Eve

It does not get much better than that ....... does it ?
Congratulations ... & ... all the Best to the little Family XXX

He was accused of being a criminal when 'holes were found in the finances' like many, many other sub-postmasters.
He has steadfastly challenged the Post Office regarding their very inferior Horizon IT system.

Read your message much earlier in the day, whilst messing about on my phone - resting my legs.
Thought of you late afternoon = was trying to hang out bedding = line broke & refused to be mended.
Trip to B & M is too far and awkward for my 4-wheeled walking aid with being uphill & 'wonky' all the way back.
Amazon Prime is Fine ....... except it has forecast rain for Tuesday xx 😞

Some Brief Items of trending World News
Joss Ackland dies = Well Respected British Actor x R.I.P.
Patti Scialfa, wife of Bruce Springsteen has blood cancer - She is still with him touring but won't be on stage so much playing guitar & singing backing vocals with the E Street band - I would think she might be able to sing a duet with her husband such as 'Tougher than the Rest' = One mic. 3 grown up children.
Ukranian Soldier Released from being a Russian POW (Prisoner of War) wants to write a Blog ....... He has been fed good food etc & Rehabilitated.
Ukranian orphan babies have that 'Haunted Look in their Eyes' ... which ... Reminds me of those Suffering Babies then in Romania 😞
