Highly unusual for me, I decided to get a quick 10 minutes rest and here we are over 4 hours later. I missed dinner (my favourite meal) so will have this for tea.

It’s not everyday you make the front cover of a brochure!

Day 3 of the lurgy, groan! Rough night due to congestion. Sugars now elevated. An easy (easier) day I feel. I don’t usually get affected like this.

I should be asking more, given the storage and copious amount of street cred!

Given the potential for fuel price rises in the near future, I’ve now amended the price on my listing for this to Β£2,995

Careful, looks like you’ve wandered into gang territory; you need to be wary of The Fracture Clinics!

Yes, though it usually passes me by. This does have an air of hay fever about it too.

Groan, been up since just after 04:00 with low sugar alarm going off. Do not feel well at all - my sinus feels like it’s about to explode, with an accompanying sore throat.

Just took a trusty Beecham’s Powder, will see how it goes.

For the beer drinkers out there who also like quality music.

You have to watch good ideas, they make your toes fall off!

These really are lovely bars. This one was free until security spotted me! πŸ€“

Just joshing!

Very rarely normally. Alas, the last few weeks have had me running around, with late meals. I set my alarm for 4.4, so have a chance before dropping below 4. It is a dark art, as two identical weeks can have different results.

Sugars are rapidly dropping, having to resort to emergency medication. Lovely!

Eeek, just had to grab some emergency isotonic glucose gel in Tesco as my low sugar alarm went off.

I expect she”d make a better soup than a Sunday roast.

Similar. Not a train fan, but many aspects fascinate me. I do like N Gauge.

A couple of quickly taken railway pictures. Just as hunter moving carriages around.

That one was way above my head. In fact, it was so far above it was way up in the clouds!

Second mountain bike ride in two days. Got to take advantage of the weather.

It took some arranging: a few phone calls, lots of negotiating, a bit of begging, but I finally got permission to play out.

It’s a dark nebula, not a reflection nebula.

The AI denoise in the app is quite good, but there is something honest about the captured image.

Alas, built up areas are not ideal.

IC434 - Horse Head nebula in Orion. A few passing aircraft trails top right, but not a bad image.

FlacPlayer+ and VOX seem to be relatively popular.

Set the S50 up with IC434 as the target.

As is typical, the clouds come rolling in!

One slight annoyance is the considerable layout changes with app updates. You just get used to it and they go and change it!
