FRIDAY 20th AUGUST 202

Original Waking Up Pleasure!

07:25hrs: The latest ever time of waking for me. Thanks to my getting my head down so late (Liberty-Global Virgin Media and Amazon being the guilty ones who caused this!), and getting only three hours kip, if that! 

I'll explain:

I woke up with a start. There I was, half-in, half-out of the c1968, second-hand £300, grotty, none-working recliner, with the lovely form of Carer Julie stood over me. Tsk! But, the manner of my awakening was the gem of the morning.

I was embarrassed, to say the least, yet it was as good an awakening as I might have prayed for. Haha! On seeing her and hearing her comforting inquiries into my state of health - for a second, I thought I might be in my usual condition when sleeping, of being stark naked. Frit me, that did! It must have been cold three hours ago, when I got down to kip, cause I'd put on a long thick dressing gown - and so very glad that I did now! 

Carer Jill took it all calmly in her stride, and I thanked her for all the time and help given yesterday. She said there is a difference already to this room, and I agreed, telling her I'd taken photos last night and put him in my blog and Facebook.

She got the medicines given, and questions asked, but with a bit of smile on her gorgeous face this morning, no doubt my red face encouraged this. Haha!

As I strove to get up, Colin Cramps suddenly came on the attack, yet by the time I'd got up, caught my balance and grabbed Metal Mickey (Walking stick), the pains and distortedness had gone?

Jillie said she was coming to do tonight's medications for me and would collect the big bag of clothing then. She took some stuff down from the radiator to take to the charity table in Winwood Court Social area. Helps every time she calls. Precious is not a strong enough word to describe her. ♥ Off she went

A couple of minutes chin-wagging, and I was almost tempted to ask her if she would adopt me. Hahaha!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

All Alone Again

But with the comfort of knowing Jill would be back!

I took some items to refill the radiator top in the hallway. No pain! I have to say that it was as if Arthur Itis had gone away on holiday?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Computer On

And tracked the order with the Marmite biscuits and Thompsons Punjana on it.

Amazon, hello, Amazon! You might, after failing to deliver my goods twice, I thought you might learn a bit? It's looking highly likely that I may, perhaps, get it delivered today.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Got The Health Check Done

Another good set of figures!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Ablutionalisationing!

A total overall of only about six dropsies, and that must be close to a record?

The bashed-up right shoulder is calming down at last. The bruise is stubborn, mind.

As I was in the shower, I did notice the Varicose Vanessa's, were coming lumpy again. Possible that Colin Cramp's attention caused this, do you think?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Worrying Tsunamis of Wee-Weeing

I went to make a brew of Glengettie tea. Got the kettle on, and I had to struggle swiftly to the emergency bucket. With the PP's and this thick long dressing gown on, I didn't think I'd make it in time to the wet room.

Another surprise for me! A brand new mode of weeing to me this one was. No messing or encouragement needed (and that is rare!) No indications whatever of any Pre or Cessational Micturitional dribbling, either. Bit of a surprising day for me up to now, mayhaps?

Washed, and back to the tea making. Poured it out, and going for the milk - I had to hobble back to the bucket? Dead the same M.O. as well? Like someone turning a tap (faucet) on full blast and then off after a few seconds?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Back to the Computer

Had a nosey at the YourArea Emagazine

.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

CorelDrawing

I'm right out of blog top and humour graphicalisations now. Humph! I must go to creating some... back in a couple of hours - Well, earlier if the parcels arrive. The ParcelForce I can hope for, but the Amazon one with the trousers... well?

.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Oh, I'll look at the Tracker first...

Good!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Getting My Slipper On

Accifauxpas

I hit the back of my head, getting back up after grabbing the footwear. Humph!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -.

Argh!

A letter telling me my insurance had run out!

I must beg someone to call them for me.

Brew and a nibble

.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Tried To Put Oder in For Food

JS Sainsbury, I could make contact with, kept getting odd messages in computer Geek?.

So I tried Morrisons - Same result?

Iceland, the site was slow. But I struggled to get an order in, then it wouldn't let me pay?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Forgot About the Graphics!

Back on CorelDraw, tired out now.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Food Order arrived

I wished it was the Amazon trousers order. I fear this is not going to arrive. It's being cunningly ignored my Amazon!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Got the Fodder Sorted

Cheesy mash with butter, Sapoca meat, canned peas, tomatoes of all shades, a cheese portion and a cheese portion

I had my first try of the Marmite biscuits.

Sorry, I bothered! Meal Rating: 7/10.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Put the TV on...

I used subtitles so I could hear if the buzzer went off while viewing.

Fell asleep all the same.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Woken Up By The Evening Carer, Jill

I'm afraid I was still half-asleep and was without doubt muddle-minded. I hope I didn't miss or forget something important that Jill might have said or told me. I remember she took the insurance letter with her, I think. 

By the time Jillie was leaving, I was just coming around a bit. We spoke, I thanked her
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I Must Try Not to Fall Asleep

Mission impossible I fear. I don't really think that the trousers will ever arrive, but there must be a slight glimmer of hope; Else I might as well just go to sleep now. I am fed-up, with so little going right again! Thank heavens above for Jillie ♥.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -.

Updated This Blog

Emailed the link. Went on Facebook.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Nope no Amazon Again

Can't find out how to contact them on the site. Anyone who can help, Please?

Yes, but how, please?

Inchies Day: Thursday 19th August 2021. Diary, and sometimes the odd ode, that might be told?

LAST NIGHTs FARCE!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

 Wednesday Evening 

I waited from 13:00hrs until just after 22:00hrs for the 4 items Amazon delivery of three trousers and a double pack of pyjama bottoms to arrive. Having been up by then for over 18 hours. Bedraggled, tired, dirty and smelly cause I dare not get a shower and miss the delivery; Oh, and fed up!

The internet going down so often at times; it was off more than on! A pig of a day, nowt going right much. 

Looked at the tracker again... and got this screen - after being told for hours that it would arrive before 10:00hrs (Lying Scumbags!)

I was doing comments on Facebook at the time, replying to comment about Virgin Media Internet, and was in a gritty, grumpy mood anyway at the time.

Minutes later... I got this:

My insides were twisting and churning; I'm afraid I swore a little, quietly but viciously. My EQ shouted at me, keep calm. It's gonna get worse! Things got worse! Then, seconds later, I got this come in...

Your Package has been Delivered?

  What the _ _ _ _!  

.After going into a stage-two panic, I had a good look around outside in case the box had been left anyway, but no! I had to look it up. I farted about trying to discover how I could talk to someone at Amazon. But I was getting all het-up and getting nowhere... I needed a wee-wee; I think that helped me to regain a limited modicum of mind control. I cannot remember how I got to it, but there was an option I eventually found to talk to a Valley Girl Robot, as mentioned by Tim Price in his last comment on the blog. It was all written, and you had to pick from a selection of options that came up, no opportunity to write anything you want to write in explanation, choose an answer sort of jobbie. I'm none the wiser now! 

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

THURSDAY 19th AUGUST 2021

Gone midnight now, and I've still not finished the Facebooking yet: But first, I looked to see if any comments had come in, and there's one from Master of Science in Teaching (MST), Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), Institute of Physics (IOP), and Associate Professor of the NOSRCMA Near Ohio Red Car Monitoring Assessment (Financial Donations Accepted). And I thought I'd replied to it - But No? I believed I probably lost my comment? So I did that first, then got on with TFZer and Winwood Heights Facebooking again.

What a palava!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Due to Jill encouraging and helping me sort out the place ready for the expensive declutters to arrive and sort me out, there has been very little time to work on this post. So things will be a little terse and to the point today, a sort of readable shorthand. Hehehe! I thang You!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Having been up for a total of 28hours, thanks to the Amazon cock up and none delivery, did not help me get much sleep. Tsk! Only about 4 hours of bliss for me...

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

06:35hrs: Woke, wee-wee'd, and got some waste bags made up. Wee-wee'd again, had a facewash quickie, made more bags up, got them in the box ready to go to the finger-trapping, toe-stubbing chute room.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

♥ Carer Jillie arrived ♥

The gal soon had the medications sorted for me. Jill kindly said she would come back later to help me with the sorting-out for an hour or so. The gal is so good to me. Bless her! ♥

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Continued Updating

I am so drained after so little kip. It's Amazon that I can keep awake... Oh, I meant amazing! But the connection and blame for Amazon's failures caused this humour!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Photo From The Balcony

The new car park at the end of Chestnut Walk had even fewer cars in it. But then again, it was much later than I would usually take a photo, thanks to Amazon failing to deliver the parcel yesterday. Thanks! Then I took a sap of a van and workmen below in the Emergency Vehicles Only parking space. 

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -.

Health Checks Done

Then realised I'd not done the Health Checks yet - So I did them".

Gobsmacked!

Yet again, an even lower BP! Yippee!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Handwashing Sorted

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Espied Ghost Clouds?

Can you see a figure in this one?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Checked the Amazon (Sorry To Use That Word) Tracker

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Jillie Returned

Two hours hard labour, Hehe! Only joking. Jillie was a treasure, and she kept me going at clearing away and shredding the paperwork. She even knew when I was getting weary. The gal is a genuine, gentle, ingenious genius! Fell of good advice. We, Jillie, mostly got more clearing done in two hours than I have done for days and took some stuff away with her for the Social table and bags for the chute! And she is beautiful with it! ♥ She departed to her next client. She used her downtime to come and help me again. Bless her cotton socks! ♥

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Hoovered Up & Took Photos

The big pile that was on the armchair has been significantly reduced! Thanks, Jill ♥.

The space behind the £300, second-hand, decrepit, c1968, rickety recliner. And the collapsable desk. (All Jills work!♥) It was practically cleared! ♥ I must try to get a photo of Nottingham's finest carer ♥.

The Steptoe & Son room was still looking horrendously messy, but that is because it was! But I could see some improvement!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Checked The Tracker Again

Mind you, according to the tracker, he was yesterday! But that didn't stop that man from failing to turn up! He's getting closer.

Oh, I'd better mention that this is yesterdays trousers and pyjama bottoms, it's the Tabet cloths. The clothing should, could, might possibly, perhaps be arriving tomorrow.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Too tired Now, to Continue

Got the meal finished off, sat down in hopes of nodding off. Realised I can't afford to in case the trews arrive, fed-up, got the stew made.

It looked fine, smelt delicious, tucked into it... Whoopsiedangleplop! Foul Tasting! Gawd know what I'd done wrong? I fear only a 2/10 for Taste-Rating this time. And that being for the peas and bread. Oh, heckithump!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Head Down

Trying not to fall asleep in case Amazon Trews or the Brit Marmite biscuits arrive! A task (staying awake) that was not going to be easy this, so I found some crap that might not send me to sleep on the TV to watch. Zzzz!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Stirred Back Into Imitation Life

I Woke Up about two hours later, still blurry-eyed, and had an argument with myself about should I get up or sod it all? 

Whoopsiedangleplop! First-Class!

Then It became evident to me that I'd fell asleep while eating some of the crap beef stew! I'm quick at noticing things like that!

Mainly through the squelching and feeling of the cold gravy, as it made rivers and streams in the folds of my stomach, as it ran down into my PPs! Which saved the recliner cover from getting wet, but Little Inchy got a soaking!

 Having to clean things up and the need of a wee-wee forced me to get up anyway. As I stumbled to the kitchenette limpingly, gently banging my right shoulder on the door frame and dropping the walking stick, the door chimes rang out...

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Evening Carer Arriving

I'm was a little confused and not really with it, but Carer Julie, bless her, spotted this straight away. I suppose the gravy, and the stuck-on peas clinging to my belly, and stained jammie-bottoms was a clue!) 

Julie showed genuine concern and checked I was alright. ♥ At first, she thought I'd had a tumble with seeing Metal Mickey on the floor. Julie helped me sort things out mess-wise, and we got the medications taken. I hobbled with her to the door and wished her my thanks-her. She told me to forget everything and get back to sleep. Bless her!  

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Cleaned Myself Up

By the time I'd cleared up the mess I had made, I had got new PP's on; nodding off was not on the cards. I was not sleepy at all. 

I suppose banging my knee on the cabinet corner, getting redressed and stubbing my toe on the recliner when I got back to the computer chair sort of rejuvenated me? No, that's not the word? But anyway, I don't think I could have got back to sleep.

The Thought Storms and self-recriminations were flowing again, mingled with the Amazon failures and letdowns, along with the pain of the toe-stubbing. Disgruntled, displeased with myself, irritated, annoyed, exasperated and in an insurrectionary mood!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

New Car Park Checked

I placed this here for the attention of AAB: Associate of Applied Business, ASPT-APT: Associate in Physical Therapy, Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA), Master of Computational Finance, Master of Science in Teaching (MST), Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), Institute of Physics (IOP), and Associate Professor of the NOSRCMA Near Ohio Red Car Monitoring Assessment (Financial Donations Accepted). Hahaha!

Blimus! A maroon and a white car in there tonight! The regulation since opening three red vehicles were in there.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Well, would you believe it?

The Witching Hour Again?

Down Again! Absolute Crap!

Does Steve Fries know about this?

At $22m salary plus expenses, does he care? Should he care? His bosses are obviously content to let him carry on number crunching and conning them... but I don't imagine they would give a toss about customers either?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

CorelDrawing

I started on a graphic on CorelDraw whilst hoping for the led-by, bedevilled Steve Fries, Liberty-Global Virgin Media Internet, to start again. It took a while. So irking!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Virgin Media Internet Still Down

Virgin Media Internet, owned and ruined by Liberty-Global not back on yet. So, I washed the green long sleeve tee-shirt in the sink.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Virgin Media Internet Still Down

I ointmentated the stubbed toe; well, heel it was actually.

The feet are looking fine, by the way.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Ah, Internet Back On

Got this blog updated and then sent the email next on to Facebooking.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Evening all!

Wednesday 18th August 2021: Inchies Day, and sometimes the odd ode, that might be told?

♥ Aha, What's all this then? ♥

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

WEDNESDAY 18th AUGUST 2021

04:50hrs: The body twitched, and the stomach folds flitched, and it was up and off to the NWWB (Nocturnal-Wee-Wee Bucket) for a wee-wee. Passing it, the brain joined the body in an elementary semi-consciousness in an imitation awareness, of sorts.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Action Stations!

The meandering around from one task to another began. I got the kettle on, had another wee-wee, and checked the front (well, I don't have a back door, Hehe!) for any mail or messages I may have missed. Made a brew of 99 tea, made up a waste bag or two, put them near the door to go to the chute later on... clouted my right shoulder on the wet room door as I went in to clean and sanitise the NWWB (no injuries, but it made me jump, Hehe!) Then off the computer. 

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Here we go Again!

It came back online in a couple of minutes.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Tended To The Health Checks

Phenomenal!

Back down in the amber again on the NHS assessment chart! Smug-Mode-Adopted!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Comments Commented On

Tim and Bill's comments replied to. I was appalled afterwards when I read what I had written, and the grammar was terrible. This was due to having a visit from Confused Kenny and Hazy Henry when I was writing and a short but worrying Dizzy Dennis moment. Tsk!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Another Few Moments of Confusion

I wander off from the computer mid-updating? Put some bits on the radiator for any caller to help themselves to.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Porcelain Throne Duties

Constipation Konrad, as opposed to Trotsky Terence, was in charge this morning.

I started a new crossword while waiting for the evacuation to begin. A solid torpedo, painfully and slowly, with much encouragement needed, was released. At least it was not bloody or messy. Although Little Inchies fungal lesion will need cleaning and ointmentating later. I'm not looking forward to that.

While I was crosswording and awaiting any movement, I thought of the Morrison order to come, then much later on, probably tonight, the tews and jammies should arrive. The tracker last night said it would be here before 22:00hrs.

Blimey, I hope so!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

End Car Park Picture

Same again, three red cars and three Nottingham City Homes maintenance vans.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Back to the Computer

A Carer should be here twixt seven and eight o'clock. Oh, it's gone 07:00hrs already! Do I start creating some much need graphics, or wait until the Carer has been? Then there is the Amazon-Morrison delivery to come twixt... erm... I'll have a look at the email, back in a bit... I'm back! Between 8 -10:00hrs. Then the Hemp oil is due too... I'm confusing myself now! It's not hard to do!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Amazed Myself Then...

Why I can't say. But I Made up another small bag of waste and put two done earlier in the new, sealed it, and return the new bag near the door to take to the chute? Why? I even took a photo of it? So there had to be something about doing this that interested me?

It the photo looked similar to a black and white pig or pug dog? But that cannot be the reason I took it. Cause I didn't see it when I took the picture... then again, I can't remember taking it anyway! Innit confusing?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Carer Arrived Late

I'm getting worse with remembering names, but I think it was Julie, but don't bank on it. Hehe! Got the job done in record time. And took the waste bags to the chute for me and glass jars to the recycling bin, bless her. ♥ 

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Morrison-Amazon Delivery

Within seconds of Julie (?) leaving, the delivery of food from Morrisons arrived. 

The shopper man flicked bits of what looked like sellotape on the floor as he checked who I was. I might have said something to him.

But he was about 6ft 6in, muscular scar across his right cheekbone, what looked like a broken several times nose, tattoos on all skin showing, and he spoke a Lithuanian sounding accent and a sneer that could have scared Arnold Schwarzenegger. So, I didn't!

I got the packages into the kitchenette.

Unpacked and got the fridge utilised.

Just the odd bit of comfort food today. Fresh Cream French Horns... not for me! Oh, no...

Well, that might be a slight exaggeration, a fabrication of the actual situation here. It just popped out, so it seems that the above statement could have, mayhaps, possibly, perhaps, have a smidge of sanctimoniousness... OK, I lied!

A lot of unavailable items were noticeable by their absence when I put the things in the fridge. There are no garden pod peas, whole milk, and fresh ready cut potato mix veg stew packs. A shame that is.  

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

More Waste Bags to the Chute

A fair bit of recycling from the excessive packaging in the order. Of, without Metal Mickey to the waste chute...

Amazing Lookalike! (To me)

As I collected the bags to take out, I was so surprised at the shape of the plastic, and paper carriers had made; I hope you can see what I mean? Think robot.

Accifauxpas!

Getting in through the door of the chute room is the moment I realised I had not put my slippers on! As I stubbed my toe on the edge door corner! Argh! - well, it made me jump! I'm quick like that! Thick as a plank as well!

Accifauxpas!

I got inside carefully and put the bags in the tunnel...

No trapped fingers or other limbs, no dizzies, Nicodemus and Peripheral Pete did not attack, and I think an unwarranted Smug-Mode began to come on, as I backed out of the room... And clouted my poor old already battered a bit left arm on the door as leaving! 

I was wondering if I might try for adoption again? Hahaha! 

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

CorelDrawing Again Eventually

Got back to the flat and made a brew of Thompsons Punjana. Then got carried away sorting stuff in the junk room. I didn't stop for ages, but I made little impression. Then onto CorelDrawing, tired now.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Got The Nosh made early

This is Why!

Frungleclumps!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Waiting For Carer & Amazon

Tried CorelDrawing again. Just got one graphic made...

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Evening Carer Arrived

Using the Door Chime First; so I knew it wasn't Jill. It was Valerie. She looked so tired out, bless her. After she sorted the medications out for me, I soon had her and me, smiling and even the odd laugh. She was happier leaving than she seemed coming in, and that cheered up, too, exponentially.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Hanföi Hemp Oil Arrived

Amazon delivered the oil, the driver left it outside in the flats lobby. Now, just the

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I felt an Ode Coming on

One and off, all day it rang, the mobile phone,

Twice when I was on the Porcelain Throne,

The buzzer buzzed while I was applying cortisone,

To Little Inchies delicate fungal-lesion zone,

The care las late, but I didn't moan,

Staff failed to in again, so I didn't miscondone,

Medical deliveries were coming, but no methadone,

Hello, it's off again, that flipping ringtone, 

Trousers ordered, and a box of Toblerone,

Too early to eat, but I could manage a zabaglione,

The shakes taking the tablets hit my cheekbone,

Then it was the turn of the landline telephone,

Heavy breathing, the caller remains unknown,

To date, 6 stubbed toes, all making me groan,

The noise from above sounded like a trombone,

Agony on the Porcelain Throne,

Others must suffer this; I'm not alone?

A dicky-fit, tantrum, I could have thrown,

Parcels are to be here soon. Do they use a drone?

In came a message of a different tone...

Now the ETZ is around the midnight zone!

With my luck, I should have known!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Let Down Amazon!

The Amazon trousers are now due, according to the tracker, at 10:30hrs. The ETA had started at 13:00hrs - and has grown longer as the day has! Humph! What chance for getting any sleep for me again tonight? Minimal? Hopeless? A daydream (or a night dream)? Still, they are probably having trouble getting drivers, judging by the nasty, uncommunicative sample they are employing.

I'll get this blog ended now, and if Virgin Media Internet allows me, post off the link, go on Facebook. But not get my head down, or fall asleep, for fear of missing the 13:00hrs delivery... oh, silly me, that's changed in stages to 22:30, hasn't it? What next, midnight? Tomorrow? Next week?
