    Good morning

    As I've started three posts in a row with Oh, I was trying to think of a way to follow with 'it's tragic' but such wit is beyond me.

    Beautiful sunny day, blue skies and not a cloud to be seen from my vantage point. It's currently 7 degrees ('feels like' 4) and that's as good as it'll get. Unlikely to have any rain today. Barometer up to 1024 mBar.

        Couple of bangs on head. Upper back hurts. Shoulder hurts.

        Waited 70 minutes for ambulance then cancelled it. She seemed fine.

        Friends are repairing a chair and had dropped it off. MrsBP went upstairs to get something - probably went up too fast. Fell down about 4/5 steps.

        I am now going to designate her a dalek and keep her away from stairs.....
        Hope she's ok BP. Don't seem as serious as what happened to my neighbour last year, broke his spine in two places. Walking around now but not the bloke he was.

          Called the parentals. They reported that they were given the Pfizer vaccine. Sore arm but otherwise well so far.

          The community centre they went to seemed well run, took all your details to record the vaccination being given to the right person. When they got home, they received a text telling them they had missed their appointment.

          Next jab will be given on 8 April.

            Hope she recovers soon.
            She is saying nice things about me! I will get her straight in for a scan.

                Decided to see if my car would start. It was last driven two weeks ago but wouldn't turn over. Maybe the battery saga is rearing its ugly head again.

                Started ok with the battery pack. Now sitting in it while it ticks over for a while.

                    Seems to be this bloke. Hope ok, these searches often don't turn out well.

                      Quite slowly but yes. Second time in two years when I've just been at my front window by chance and seen someone carried out on a stretcher.
