Makes it difficult to drive as it can get stuck in the spokes of the wheel...

IIRC there was a Great Sigh of Relief since it was the end of the line (until now) for Picard & chums.

Now you see the first season of Discovery was not too bad at all - if you can get around the fact the main protagonist is a man (or woman) who now identifies as a woman (or man) I never could get which....

So i kind of look forward to old baldy making a reappearance.

Indeed, Number One, hence the "until now".

Engage.

Happily enough for me, since it's streamed as is "Discovery", I'll never see it.

In much the same sort of way that I don't bother watching the J. J. Abrams reboots with "Star" in the titles.

You are actually missing some great special effects and very tight dresses.

I'm off to the hospital this afternoon so somebody can peer gloomily at the weird section of my operation scar and prognosticate about it

There and back on foot in under ninety minutes

Would have been even quicker without the obligatory twenty minute wait after the appointed time

Anyway, turns out my scar is mildly hypertrophic but not worth bothering about. So I've been referred on to the occupational therapists who will issue me with some kind of stretching exercises I can do that probably won't have any effect, but the fact of telling me to do them means I can be signed off as having had Something Done

(He didn't put it like that; I'm reading between the lines a bit.)

By the by, it's dashed hot out

Going to cool down for a bit from tomorrow, it seems. Fine by me

[DoctorStrangelove]

Picking with rain here.

Much colder & it'll snow, I reckon.

Tea, unusually for a Tuesday, was M&S breaded haddock, followed by a generous helping of Bird's custard with stewed blackberries.

I had to reheat the previous batches to sterilise them a bit so they could go in the freezer, the fridge not being cold enough at the moment.

I shall defrost the fridges sometime this week in an attempt, no doubt vain, to improve their cooling effectiveness.

Clouding over a bit here now

I think I might go to the chip shop for my tea…
