Question of the day:

Have you ever had an operation?
Yes.
I had my appendix removed when I was 18.
Otherwise, I've been in hospital many, many times to have stitches for wounds and 107 days in isolation when I had TB. (tuberculosis which ate a third of my lungs.)

I had one when I was 6 (I think)
I shut my fingers in the door and got a compound fracture (the bone comes out if the skin) and I had to have it pinned together. At one point they thought they would have to amputate the finger tip but thankfully they didn't.
It crushed my growth plate so I have an odd shaped nail but at least I have one!

Hi Lyn. That is such a cute little dog (despite the fact that I am scared of them).
Hi Gillian she is such sweet thing - very obedient in the house and she can almost talk with her eyes. If she can smell food on the table she sits by it and whimpers and if you ask her what she wants she just uses her eyes to look back and fro between you and the food as if to say 'it's up there. When you meet her for the first time she just rolls on to her back so you can tickle her tummy - a bit like me really!

Hi, Lyn.
Tidgy is playing "Journey to the Centre of the Substrate" again, she's vanished without trace and probably won't come out 'til tea time, by which time wifey and I will be out and she'll sulk.
Wifey's getting dolled up for the evening ahead and I've just had a shower, lovely!

Are you going anywhere nice so you can wear your new shirt and tie?

10 years ago, when we first came to Fes, we stayed in an hotel, fell in love with the medina and spent a while finding a place to buy.
Today is the anniversary of the last night in the hotel before we moved in here. (House containing Cold Dark Room). I've booked the same room from 10 years ago. ( I expect the hotel won't charge me for the room when i go to pay.)
I will indeed be wearing my new shirt and tie.

I've got a wonky little finger on my right hand. The tendons are too short so I can't reach an octave on the piano which is why I'm not a concert pianist.
That and the fact I can't read music very well so I play by ear................or sometimes over there!

Yes, I remember something about the neighbours rioting.
