I have to force myself out. I am not sure what you can do with arthritis. But I was wrecked from lack of regular exercise and started back with short daily walks or cycle and now am back on long walks. I also find cod liver oil is great.
Trundle time here, did manage a pretty decent sleep though..
I'm genuinely envious - I've been suffering from some mild arthritis in me hips for the last year or so and it's just being able to go out on walks that I've been missing lately :(
Was offline for a few days and come back to find Duvet gone ๐ข
Come back, girl.
Some pics from today.
grandeod; so sorry about your cat. They take a very special part or our hearts ...
One of mine was missing 24 hours this week. I do not let them out but there were deliveries etc so I thought he had escaped. Tramped the lane calling him, alerted the neighbours.. went to bed upset... As I was almost asleep I heard a familiar cry... And he appeared in the kitchen.. I have no idea where he managed to hide.. New name is Houdini So relieved..
The box of tree and decorations are cluttering the kitchen floor ready for take off. The Advent Wreath has been up earlier and the new candles are looking elegant... I have a huge white star for the tall wild fuchsia tree on the drive.
I've only been to Bergamo in Italy. For a wedding. There is a beautiful old town there. Also you could probably even get a day trip to Venice or Bologna or ... from there, and they'd be quieter at that time of year.
Just guessing ... don't plan your trip based on speculation on boards ๐๐๐
Plane lands in Bergamo, Milan is close (ish), but I've got accommodation in Bergamo.
Happy with toodling around Bergamo, tbh. Mr. Google seems to indicate there's plenty of stuff to see and nice restaurants etc. And it's just at the foot of the northern mountains there, so might even have some snowy stuff to please the eye!
It's somewhere I've never been and someone else is footing the bill, what's not to like? ๐
Iโve said my piece (peace?) ah jaysus
no, its piece. I had it right first time.
thats ok so. Im happy with that.
Mine neither. I'd rather eat feet
Just do it. A nice city is a nice city anytime of the year. Or where in Italy ?
I won a 7 day trip to Italy (only time I could go is in Jan '23, so hope the weather's not too ****).
Just me going. I thought, fรบck it, might not get another chance.
Paul Heaton,. Jacqui Abbott ( housemartins and beautiful south ) ... See my video post above ... in 3 arena feb ( also in Galway, Belfast, Kerry ! )

and Kraftwerk in trinity college June
Ticket prices about 50 quid each for both which is good considering that's the price of a half decent meal these days.
Have not been to a proper concert since before covid , so looking forward to just going.
Have to see Kraftwerk at least once and Paul Heaton should be good craic on a Friday night in feb.
๐๐๐
The main thing is to break the ice and just do it. Past few years have been awful for me. So here is to 2023.๐พ
I love an oul mince pie but haven't indulged yet. Soon! I'm in the leaba. The ladies are watching the tellie. Zulu at the end of my bed. On a Michael Caine thing tonight.
@SuperBowserWorld , ah great , who are you going to see?!
I'm not that much of a fan either.
Just bored and tired.
But I have taken a leaf out of @Gremlinertia book and booked some concert tickets for next year!
I have to admit , mince pies are not my thing .
Exciting Friday night here ๐ not ๐
More tea
And Mariah Carey's song is the absolute worst.
According to my 78 year old Dad, Last Christmas is the best Christmas song ever written. So be it!
A song to play when someone leaves boards ...
I love this version ๐
Found some at last and mince pies already.
Getting statins off Santa for Xmas ๐
@[Deleted User], I'm in one of my rare good moods too!
@Autosport, I hope you have an absolutely ball on your travels.
I'm watching The Italian Job after a chat with my Dad over a pint this evening. The original version. What a movie. Suppin a can and looking forward to a lamb shank, mash, veg aaannnnd some crispy chips!
The cat is sitting on the couch with Ms G. As happy as a family can be in the circumstances.
Hello all, Iโm out in the wilds of Europe now and itโs a tad bit cold ๐ฅถ
Hope all is well with Duvet ๐ค๐ค
Sending a selection box , if you're not too fussy about the chocolate.
Tea and search for chocolate time.
Edit cupboard is bare.
Tea solo so.
You can tell how cold it is outside based on how long the cat stays outside.
Summer time. Asleep in the hedge all day. Except for meals and sitting on the wall scowling.
Winter time. Has to be pushed out to go to the toilet.

Happy Friday ๐๐
