Went out to just do a coupla things oughter ave took 1 hr max.
W to practice nurse, me to PO to post yet another tracked and sign-for letter. wimmins there explained that tother colleague hadn't explained things right with what I had done before.
Then "we" remembered that "we" had to drive all the way across Bournemuff to the Stoma place to pick up a parcel of stuff she needs. (Mad, why the heck can't they just prescribe it so we can pick it up or even get it delivered locally?) So with the rush hour bearing down on us, off we go. Get there, I jump out and pick up the bag, we get back in the car and set off back.
W opens the bag, it contains loads of bags but no flanges, so in effect it contained nothing! Unless I start getting all DIY with her existing flanges! Not funny.
Struggled back through the rush hour swinging miles out of our way, sliding up non-existent lanes on roads approaching roundabouts etc. Luckily in the Pluriel, as the Disco would have been too wide, then as we are approaching home W remembers she is out of her special gluten-free bread. So we have to "pop" into Tesco. Took us so long we only got back in time to feed the dogs before they ate our legs!
So dins will be a bit late ce soir!
Have a good evening folks!!

It is said that if you have a problem or run out, you can simply tape a dog poo bag around your stoma, if you have to.
Wouldn't fancy that, but the flanges can be a bit tricky, changing the bag that clips to it ain't too bad, but the flange has a bit that is very difficult to clean.
GF bread really is poop, but recently we have discovered "Promise" bread from Tesco. Light years ahead of the other cardboard.
Once your missus has tried it she'll empty the shelf!!

Ye better be quick as its going to sink, soon.

Have to confess, rather dreading the MOT on the Disco 2 tomoz.
With all the rest of the poop in our lives at the mo. Don't want it biting me in the BTM.
Normally I am pretty optimistic/fatalistic....
Also don't want to be having to drive it to the Indy on Friday if it has failed. But I have to for him to diagnose it.
Although annoyingly the present MOT don't run out until the 20th. In the old days it wouldn't matter.
I have already put the MOT test off once, don't want to get it to the point where I run out of time if it needs welding or whatever.
I think next year I may move the MOT forward i.e closer to the beginning of the year to give me more time to fix stuff, already did this once.

Tankers can be very tough ships. During the days of convoys many stayed afloat despite torpedo hits. I suppose because they are divided into tanks or sections or summat that meant damage could be localised. . Or were, back in the day. So I think it'll make it to Hull or Grimsby or somewhere.
We'll see!!

Can yer hear the rust wurms munching yer tratter?Got me noo hearing aid. Very high tech, two seconds to shove it in my lug and twenty minutes for the audiologist to match it to my audiograms on her computer. The clarity is outstanding, hearing things I haven't heard for years. My peace is broken forever. Must remember to take it out before I get in me tratter I dread to hear what noises it makes. And it's got blue tooth. To say I am impressed would be an understatement.
