How are the Foggies?

I'm in the bed with coffee. What to do what to do.
I would like to stay in bed but too much makes me go a bit.... funny...
I need to ponder a bit more on this.

My prints arrived so I will go buy frames. I could have bought them framed but they were expensive that way so I'll pick up a few in The Range.

It's all go here today! Big Grin

Oh! I forgot. Tomorrow is dentist day which means IV sedation which means lovely floaty sleepy sleeps Big Grin

Oh the Range - thank you, I have a print that I'm finding quite hard to get a frame for, and I haven't thought of there.

Speaking of frames, I got myself new glasses ordered yesterday. I sat on mine last month, and they haven't stayed on my face properly since, so went and got new ones. My prescription hasn't changed too much, and I get my new glasses on Thursday Smile

I didn't win anything on the lotto, the injustice is almost overbearing. ?

I have a day of sketchbook work ahead (mainly lots of pritt stick and printed images)

Don't work too hard, maybe take a break around 7. And I've just realised that the TV Sheep reveal is on then. Angel

What an excellent suggestion!


RE: We don't know where we are, but at least we know what to do - BuileBeag - 16-01-2022

I did it. Just one of those days where I didn't have any motivation but then once I got moving I had a great time. I had three big dogs with me and we met the teeniest, tiniest, little dog you have ever seen. Could have fit her in my pocket and she was chasing my three around like a boss!! It was so funny and cuuuute!


RE: We don't know where we are, but at least we know what to do - ari101 - 16-01-2022

Right I need to take this as motivation, get off my behind, put on my shoes and get some exercise!

Haha, well I decided to take the bins out on my way, got as far as the bin room and found some other apartment's keys in the door! No sign of a person.
I've left a note with my number (bin room door and main block door). I assume it was someone heading out who will only find them missing when they get back. Hopefully they have a phone and can call my number when they arrive home to get their keys. Needless to say I'm not heading off for the walk until they claim the keys. If no taker over night I'll organise to pass them off to the caretaker guy tomorrow.

Maybe I should have left them there, I just didn't want an unscrupulous person to find them...


RE: We don't know where we are, but at least we know what to do - Mam of 4 - 16-01-2022

Fair play to you@ari101 .
Many people would have just left them there .


RE: We don't know where we are, but at least we know what to do - BuileBeag - 16-01-2022

I think you did the right thing there @ari101 or someone might have cleared them out! I did that one day, left the keys in the door and I was sick when I realised.

It does make you think twice. I used to do a lot of rambling by myself. I think everyone of us needs to be mindful of our surroundings and take care to be safe as best we can no matter our gender.
Men dramatically overestimate their ability to self defense and women don't 
This means that men walk around acting like random cerial killer wouldn't be able and while men are far more likely to be murdered or attacked tebyvact like they won't and aren't .Wmen are far more aware of their vulnerability and so they react to terrible crimes like this with the appropriate amount of terror and worry.

We don't know the details although It dose sound like this was a sexuall attack on poor Aisling. 

Do a practical self defense Couse no matter what your genetallial and while carrying tools  is frowned upon in this country I'd look into it. Can of mace might be illegal but there are some alternatives that aren't . Mini cans of etch primer work just as well but maybe bug spray or spray on plaster might be easier to explain.
Same with the whole knife dilemma. Get a decent pen and in a pinch it's just as pointy as a knife an twice as legal.

You think I'm mental right up to the second someone bigger and stronger than you decides to take out their mental on you and in that second you better have an answer or you are fuck d.

Port activity report  ( somewhat tedious followup to @thomil s last post on same. )



So, The Cadets turned up and they were, indeed, put on sentry duty. A couple of days later they sailed. So that left The Roald ( which is still tied up ) and the rather down at heel small ship that was mentioned previously. It is named Ocean Nova  https://www.cruisemapper.com/ships/Ocean-Nova-1113  and seems to be no shrinking violet when it comes to pics on the internet.  Maybe alright poking around costal shores in it but I would not fancy being in it on the high seas.


A few days ago The Mexicans parked up where The Germans had been

Boat tours


Wild music

Even if it is steel hull & masts the lifeboats look the real McCoy ( they have some modern liferafts too ... so thats OK Smile  )

The neighbour reclaimed the key Smile (I understand it is the spare set, he had given it to the GF and she was obviously taking out the bin on her way home). Got my walk in too! Big Grin

For my birthday, my mum sent me a screenshot of the confirmation that she'd bought me an amazon voucher. I could see it said "click here to access your account to download it" but she hasn't managed that. What chance do I have? Tongue
