Sorry to hear of illness, HNY to you too!

and in other positive news....
I found the missing watch and watch strap.
Hiding in plain sight.
I was searching for other watch related stuff, (I have boxes and bags of old watches) and suddenly came across the new (second-hand) strap in a plastic bag, like it came from the seller. Not managed to find it before despite searching that box, It had somehow hidden itself behind a flap of cardboard.
So the box got emptied out onto the bed and there among them was the watch.
How the human mind works! I was convinced that I had been more careful with where I had put the watch as it is a decent one, but then the whole box contained watches much like this, only none were separated out or put in a lickle box of its own, which was what I was expecting.
New Year's Resolution, "stop presuming and assuming"!

No wonder the army is gerrin tid. Playing who gets stuck. Gerrin um wet. And the clip of being towed darn hill. Embaraskin as pop eye wood say.
