There's some lovely heavy rain'n'hailstones'n'thunder'n'lightning out there at the moment. And I'm especially happy because I can watch it inside at home, 40 minutes after cycling home from work. :cool: There are kids in other houses gawking out their windows at it.

Not trivial, but I brought my 15 year old dog to the vet on Tuesday Morning, and was given her death sentence (2 weeks left at most), as her malignant tumour was inoperable. I got a second Opinion Tuesday evening and she was brought straight into surgery. She’s home now sitting beside me, wagging her tail
^^ that was last year.
Last Thursday she started to fade rapidly. Brought her back to the same vet and she spent 2 days in the vets surgery. Friday morning I had her home and brought her for a short walk. She collapsed twice and that’s when I knew what was coming. Broke my heart and I started crying in the public park as she struggled to get up. She managed the walk home.
I don’t know what it is about this dog but she’s made of tougher stuff than me. Saturday morning she started eating. Saturday evening she wagged her tail. Sunday she started to walk. Monday she’s eating, walking around the house, opening doors. Monday was her vets re visit and she was shocked that she came through. She was fully expecting to be putting her to sleep. She’s steadily making progress but old and I know she’s gonna be gone sooner rather than later.
So im happy to still have her for now.0 -
Ordered myself a brand new TV on Monday afternoon from ElectroCity. The delivery information said it would take 3-5 working days or 2-4 working days if local.
Bloody thing got to me half 10 the following morning. I was so happy.
TH at my new TV. After 12 years I really needed a proper upgrade.0 -

When someone gets the vocative comma right, especially in work e-mails.
It takes balls to do that when almost everyone else uses it incorrectly (intentionally or unintentionally), and the incorrect way of using it is becoming the norm.
Hello, Sakana. I had no idea what the vocative comma was until I read your post. Now I'm TH that I do! 0 -

The big gantry signs over the m50 that report traffic have for the past year said things like "stay home" or "holdfirm" or something covidy. Today they said "we're on the road back, make it a safe one"
Nice to see even the motorways are feeling positive 0 -

Hello, Sakana. I had no idea what the vocative comma was until I read your post. Now I'm TH that I do!
Its absence is especially irksome when someone is trying to pull off a flourish like "You, sir, are a something-something-something" but they forget the comma before the sir.
When I see it done correctly in the wild, it's my own personal five-minute salvation.0
