I’ve done some housework today and feeling very pleased with myself. I put Amazon music on and jigged around with the hoover (which is not a hoover but a Panasonic but it wouldn’t sound right to say I’ve been doing some Panasonicing and how would I spell it?) The house looks better for it and it gave me an excuse to dance onto the balcony but sadly, not a soul in sight. My plants are coming along nicely and when it’s finished I will put some photos up. I planted some sunflower seeds, not sure they’re the correct plant for a sixth floor, on a hill balcony. If they grow and it’s a big if because I’ve had them about five years, they will probably sail away on the first windy day.
Now for the newsworthy news items about survival. A man in France was given a surprise birthday present by his employees. A ride in a fighter jet. He wasn’t happy and in his panic he grabbed hold of the ejector button and 😱 was thrown from the plane. He fell 2,500 feet through the air but was unhurt. Btw, my birthday isn’t far off and I don’t fancy a ride in a fighter jet either. Just in case.
Then in Poland a man in a 4 wheel drive hit a roundabout at speed, he and his car flew over the roundabout completely landing in a graveyard 😱 whereupon it burst into flames. The driver was taken to hospital by ambulance but had escaped with only minor injuries.
On to the good news story. 99 years old veteran war hero Tom Moore has raised 1 million pounds for the NHS. He is walking 100 lengths of his garden which he hopes to finish before he reaches 100 at the end of the month.
I have to say he is a bit of a sweetheart and in the photo of him when he was young looks just like a penpal I was writing to when I was a teenager.
That’s all my darlings, it seems to get harder to find things to write about now we have entered the fourth week. But it’ll be ok. China, Italy and Spain are, to differing degrees, beginning to relax the isolation rules. Maybe we’ll be next. Sleep well my lovely loners, try not to have weird dreams. Nighty night 😴💤😴
