Thursday Baloney


A nothing day again, too chilly to wander about, once Tesco had been attended to ("Here it comes again," I heard the checkout girl say to her mate.  She not being my favourite) and buying yet more seed for the greedy Starlings!  I need to feed myself also as I just failed to remember the name 'Starlings.' I could name many birds but this one would not come, the mind blocked it.  This happens all too often nowadays.  It is part of my mind and it runs through the family this inability to remember names but when tired or sick it shows up and nothing comes that is relevant when looking for something.  I hope its just age.
A nice email from one of the museum girls today, that worried me also as it meant she wanted something.  Indeed she did and my nothing day was at the end filled with searching for a man I canny find.  He is there, I found him 5 years before I want him, but otherwise he has run away. He did reappear and die rich and happy in 1950, but it is his earlier experience I seek!  Bah!
Now I retire exhausted, strained and forgetting what I was going to do....

Confirms my opinion of joggers....pity lycra wasn't about at the time, might have attracted another anathema...

Fly, Two of our lot are doing the marathon. I need to buy these for them...(one''s a copper!)

Names disappear from my memory when I need them only to return hours and sometimes days later. But at least they return.

Dave, Yes they return much later but it is worrying. It always happens at the wrong time.
