I honestly don't know if I shall post tonight, I feel quite wretched and my sinuses and eyes are quite painful. I know it's only a heavy cold, but I really do feel yuck. I know I should have a better antivirus program.

Bonzi won't stand in for me, his toes are still sore from yesterday - besides his writing is better than mine and I don't need upstaging by a cat, however clever he is.

I'm going back to bed.

Hugs,

Angharad.

I have no problem with adults who want to dress up in school uniforms, but this one went too far and reaped the rewards. This sort of thing must make the British look barmy to the rest of the world. See the link below.

Oh the joys of womanhood! I had to go for my breast screening mammogram today. I should be used to it by now, it's my third one plus an extra last time when they found an anomaly and I had to go to the hospital for further boob squashing.

For those of you yet to enjoy such delights, imagine catching your boobs, one at a time in a printing press, then because you enjoyed it so much, you shut them in the door - one at a time again.

I don't generally scare easily, within the bounds of realistic need to take threats seriously. However, last night gave me a sinking feeling. I hoped that the threat to BC was a temporary one, because the trauma to me personally, would be enormous, were it to close.

90 years ago today the Armistice was signed, ending the Great War. It was carnage on a scale not known before, where over a million British Servicemen and women perished, many in the mud of the Somme. It is perhaps beyond our imaginations to realise how awful this must have been, dealing with daily shelling, the cold or heat, constant sniper fire, poor food, lice, disease and boredom. Then if you cracked under the stress of it all, your own side would shoot you as a coward.
