@thegrahamparker.bsky.social There's a certain German supermarket that sells their own brand of Jelly Babies & they're called Aldi Young Dudes.🤣

@thegrahamparker.bsky.social If you fancy watching some nostalgic TV some old episodes of "Call My Bluff" are available on BBC iPlayer.
I used to enjoy them back in the day & it's good to see them pop up again.

Crutches are gone, I'm able to walk unaided.
The swelling can take quite a while to sort itself out, but apart from that the healing process went well.
The care I've had from the hospital has been first class.

I had a look on Amazon UK yesterday & I see that there are plenty of Bigstir releases on there, so that solves the postage issue.
I also saw that LCTLTT vinyl has all 5 star ratings apart from one miserable oink who gave it 3.

It looks like it might mean an operation,I'm back at the hospital tomorrow morning & I'm half expecting Sharon to be leaving me there.🤥

What I thought was a twisted ankle turned out to be a fracture.
Damaged while on holiday in Crete 3 days before leaving, went to A&E back home & I'm now in a plaster cast for a while.😬

The inventor of the electric chair was a dentist by profession.
The guillotine was named after a French doctor.
"Since You Left Me Baby" by @thegrahamparker.bsky.social mentions a doctor & dentist & it's stuck in my head at the moment.🤪

I've had the watch for a while, but the case was a new arrival today.It automatically winds the watch & it runs on mains or batteries.
It's so soothing watching it in action.

Renewing our garden bench and chairs,I was using a Dremel to cut stubborn bolts & I think I burnt it out.
Picked up these bolt cutters from Screwfix for £18,they made short work of a difficult job. Bloody marvellous 😀
