Getting out the hossy after a 111 call Monday morning with a temp of 40.8
After a CT scan, not appendicitis but diverticulitis caught just in time to avoid surgery thankfully

Glad to be home

The pendulum keeps swinging

Glad they caught it early enough!

My GP thought I had peritonitis but the hospital said no, diverticulitis - phew!

Only in there for 24 hrs but that was moar than long enough.

Yesterday was the first November 5th since 1969 that I neither heard nor saw any fireworks. I was in Germany then.

I left Harrogate Army Apprentice College in 1973.

I remember being sat in Krefeld looking out of the window looking for fireworks.

DOH!

I was in Stuttgart then. I am now in North Wales. Days of wind and rain.

Halloween is more popular than Guy Fawkes day this year where I live ..Not sure why ā€¦Also a new McDonalds has opened nearby on the 5th Nov ..Packed to rafters with parents and offspringā€™s maybe thatā€™s where the firework people were..

Because the shops can sell you stuff for it (I can just about remember my Tescoā€™s stocking boxes of fireworks, I think, but not any more of course).

Quite a lot of life is driven by businesses doing everything they can to part you from your money and they work very hard at it.

At a sparsely attended rugby match between Bristol and an Argentina XV.

Drink up thy cider, etc.

Meeting up today with another couple of old school friends from the year/house cohort.

We were a tight unit anyway but I was very close to one of the guys Iā€™m meeting today - shared a study with him for years.

We lost contact quickly. I donā€™t think Iā€™ve spoken to him since 1987. Itā€™ll be interesting to see how this goes.
