Been waiting 6 months for a reply from a London Hospital about Important Thing.
I received the reply at 5.30pm today (Friday). It's nonsense. It's plainly an "It's Friday before half term, I want this off my desk" response.
This is the Linkedin professional profile pic of the sender. Says it all.

Dry Cleaner's shop near me has been closed for a year or so. Not a soul goes in or out. Somehow this has created the perfect ecosystem for the (previously) small Jade potted plant left abandoned inside. It's even happy flowering now 🌱🌵

Left new job after 10 days. Disappointing, but not entirely unexpected. Better a life lesson than working for nasty people.

Week 2 of all-day Zoom meetings. I'm getting irritated, so distracting myself by knitting just out of camera shot.

£40 off Mounjaro & Ozempic at MedExpress with code 1Q3D8R
(TBH the clinics are all much the same. I use MedExpress as they've been easy, fast, on the cheaper side & send via Royal Mail not blasted Evri like many others. But I'm sure other clinics are equally good.)

New year jam making today (pic tightly cropped as my kitchen is ancient). Local tradition says NYE jam predicts the next year. If jam comes out sweet, all will be well. If it's bitter, there's a rough year ahead.

The one with butterflies tells of how a local vicar claimed to have shot an eagle. That's it. That's the Local News there.
Also, taxidermy seagull (black headed gull to be precise).
