My dad's home from hospital
Apparently he's still not feeling 100% but he's much better, and the tests didn't show any sign of sepsis, so they now think he was dehydrated

No, proper retired. Or at least until next year and then I’d be picky, certainly no full time “nose to the grindstone” work.Originally posted by DoctorStrangelove View Post

Popped into the pub (Princess Victoria) on the way back from Waitrose. Had a couple of tapas dishes and a G&T as it was way past lunchtime. This time, being wiser, I asked to have the tonic on the side.
Potched around a bit, and then had a flurry of sorting out in the patio that has resulted in a number of things being moved around. As everything was happy where it was, I expect things to die off in the next couple of weeks or so. However, room had to be made for the tomatoes when they're properly potted up and the chillies need to be in the sunny corner.Comment

The Curse of Oak Island S1E5, series finale.
Swamp diving with metal detectors at 'Mercy point'. A copper coin was found with an 8 on it. Assumed Spanish and 17th century.
The loony brothers hired a chap to literally get down and dirty in the swamp. He found a flat rock.
The metal detectors appear to be malfunctioning as the earlier signals are no longer reproducible.
A chap confirmed the age and origin of the coin but a single coin does not a treasure make. It was decided more money should be spent to search for said treasure.Comment
