I was disturbed early this morning by a message on my ansafone informing me the appointment with the 'Health Check' lady was cancelled as she was 'unhealthy.'
"I have wasted time having a bath," thought I," I could have left that to the weekend after all."
So I continued using the old socks and vest and lazed about the house finding lots of things to leave for another day. This included the difficult link in the family history that took me 48 hours to figure out. The answer was of course right in front of me!
Having avoided the health check I decided to take advantage and change the diet again and see if the extra weight that has appeared again might disappear by the time I see her indoors. Fruit now appears delightful though for a while after several choice portions I wondered if I did the right thing...
I checked out Tesco for light foodstuffs, apart from the Bakewell Tart that fell into my basket, so I kept it as it might be broken. I noticed a long queue at the 'Costa Express' coffee machine and wondered if the word 'Express' was a suitable term to use. Later I heard that today all such machines were FREE and that explains the queue. In various parts much grumbling and complaining was heard as 1st world problems reared their heads. The FREE coffee machines had run out! Despair and anguish all around. I feel for these people...
Then I paraded around town watching the clouds above gathering for a get together. The began to look menacing as I crossed the park.
I was right!
They menaced me on the way home and began to drench the world as soon as I got in. Thunder gently clapped above, (Can thunder gently clap?)Lightning flashed and rain teemed down heavily for quite a while. It was seen that the BBC had promised this on the website and they got it spot on. Thunder, Lightning and rain they said and that is what we got, lots of it. Car drivers did not appear to ease the speed outside my window but they are in a hurry to avoid the inevitable accident down at the roundabout. Possibly that may be the reason there are so many accidents, but car drivers do not think that way.
The latest Boris wheeze, which he now says is 'out of date' is to put custom posts, 5 or 10 miles either side of the Border in Ireland. This later became, 'only on the Republic side of the border.' I think we can ask if he and his advisor's, Dominic and Carrie, are actually mentally ill? Could it be that they have taken too many opium tablets to keep themselves going? Could it be they are just daft? Do they neither care or understand the situation in Ireland? Does Boris think Nanny will fix it?
Boris is still trying to shake off Jennifer, a US lass who he managed to gift £150,000 of taxpayers money to for her 'business.' She has hopped it to the US because off Brexit! How did she managed to get cash from Boris I wonder?
Allowing for the Conservative Conference which is driving them to sleep, isn't it interesting how Michael Gove is keeping remarkably quiet these days? He does appear and toe the party line on occasion but he is very quiet for him. Is this orders? Or is he awaiting the inevitable 'slip up?'

It was interesting to read that the Queen was asking about procedures to dismiss Boris if he doesn't comply with the Benn act. but it just may be supposition
Dave, There has been a suggestion of this but it may just be supposition. This queen would not step out and do anything brave.
I had an apres moi le deluge moment too...went to the next town to a weekly market to buy cheese...proper cheese. Found the stall, crouching among new age this that and twaddle sellers, bought copiously, then found a stall run by a Dutchman selling properly smoked trout, avoiding a stall selling trendy bread so hard it would break your teeth and then headed for home under clouds covering the hilltops...just made it home before the heavens opened.
