Off grid living has its drawbacks. Makes you appreciate how grim life was pre electricity and petrol. Even the wood burner relies on petrol for the chainsaw.

Morning! Enjoy your rest.
Small trauma last night when the battery ran out of power. Obviously the lack of sunshine and heavy need for lighting was more than the solar panel could manage. Generator now running.
We are heading to a Christmas market later, trying to feel festive!
Happy Friday everyone

That makes sense. I've seen some quirky animations which I think were Polish, very entertaining.

Difficult question but how would you describe Polish humour?

That sounds an interesting topic. Do they have close equivalents in Polish?
Yes, the lockdown effect on nature was amazing, and the general recovery of the planet once travel was greatly reduced was notable. Shame no lessons were learned.

Morning, grey here but dry, a warm front coming through. Hope the lessons go well. We had a lovely walk in the Chรขteau park at Regniere ร‰cluse yesterday, didn't see wild boar though they had dug extensively. Tried a new restaurant, excellent.
Meeting friends for a walk later.
Happy Thursday!

Ooh, a new gym outfit for me? The cape might get caught in the chest press though.

Randomly! Can insomnia be considered a superpower?

Excellent, a decent breathing space now. Do they backdate it?

Morning! How soon do you hear about the benefits?
A lovely sunny day here, the forecast is much improved too. We are planning an afternoon/evening trip to Amiens in the next couple of days.
I got my music finished and sent to my singing partner. We both have a lot of learning ahead.
Happy hump day!

I was going to say thank goodness I have David Tennant and Olivia Coleman, then remembered I watched an old episode of Inside No 9 last night. So I have to rely on Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton.

Fingers crossed for you. It must be obvious to anyone that you are disabled, I hope that ibcludes the authorities.
We are currently in the queue to load onto the train. Hoping for a smooth journey and some dryish weather. This visit is mainly for clearing and closing up for winter.
Happy Tuesday!

Wow, haven't heard this one before. Variations indeed, the motifs still shine through it all.

I was sure I replied, maybe failed to press send! All packed and ready for an early start tomorrow. Roofer will come and roof while we are away.

I hope the boys are doing well. Will you see them over Christmas at all?

Winter is never good for arthritis. The damp encourages inflammation it seems. Do you have a lot of snow now?

Afternoon! It sounds like a happy busy, that's good.
I'm home alone with Mosey, made a carrot and ginger cake and some lemon and ginger cordial.
My right knee is starting to be painful. Hopefully this is just a passing flare-up. I know it too will need to be replaced in time, just not yet please.

Thanks, it's a horrible condition. Though a swift end is much to be desired in these circumstances. His wife is a nurse and has managed amazingly throughout the while thing.
