Rather weirdly I've been blocked by people who thought I was another David Blanchflower. A well known economist.

I was suspicious about the one called Vlad 😉

Had my hospital appointment. Will have various scans at some point. Took blood they did.

Missing the word "warm." I'm half asleep!

Funny thing is its been really all day and this evening.

Thano you 🙂

It was alright. Not as good as the first one.

If it was any windier here the wind would be complaining it was too windy.

Tomorrow I've got an outpatient appointment at the Neurology department of a local hospital. No idea what will happen. Best and worst case scenario is scans. Although my MRI earlier year was a blurry disaster.

My sky is clear but there's a windy wind. I tried taking some handheld Moon pictures earlier. Didn't go well. Shaky hands and shaky wind. 🔭 #astrophotography

In the past year and a half I've stared at the moon for hours and hours. I've taken dozens and dozens of pictures as the moon goes through each of its phases. I've seen a total eclipse and a supermoon.
I'll never get bored of the moon. It amazes me every time I see it🌙

Amazing!

Tasty!

I'm at the pictures to see "Sisu: Road to Revenge." Really looking forward to this. Big fan of the first film.

Happy Birthday Adie. Don't look a day older than me😉
