Hi, Page! (Sorry - was stuck in Zoom)
-
And she'll probably expect you to pay for the gas she'll need for the drive there and back, as well, Albert...
-
Well you know what thought did...
-
And there he was. Hassling me last week about needing at least 8 hours of sleep a night....
-
Greetings, Drew!
-
Sleep well, Mr B!
-
And a slightly belated "Hi!" back at you, young Albert.

Thanks, bro. Of course, I'm not being totally serious with all my whingeing. It's actually good to have something worthwhile to occupy my mind. Thanks, bro. Oh, by the way...

Well it's ten after midnight as I start to type this... It's been busy night, and going to be a busy day tomorrow. Think I'll head to bed in an attempt to recharge the old brain cells. Night, my friends!

I assume you're referring to the pizza when you say it was so good...

Zoom meeting starting in little more than 40 minutes time... Another one tomorrow evening. Before which I will have to watch 10 separate 5 minute YouTube videos to adjudicate a debate for Concern Schools Debates, and decide which school wins (the marking sheets are not easy!). These debates have gone online this year, due to Covid. Normally I would travel to the proposing school to see the kids debate face-to-face. And another Zoom meting on Wednesday evening... So apologies in advance if I'm a bit quiet for the next few days. (Although some of you may be quietly celebrating that fact.)

About seven years ago I took the following photograph of a disused railway station about 25 miles (40 kilometres) away from where I live. Every time I look at it, the following song comes into my head

My driving licence expired back in August. But the NDLS (National Driver Licence Service) have emailed me telling me it's still valid until next March, due to Covid-19. The email informing me about it includes the following: Which means that for the next four months or so I can legally drive without an up-to-date licence.

It's also dry here at the moment. But that probably won't last too long...
-
Hope all's good in Albertsville with you and Steve?

Greetings, young Albert!

Greetings, Drew!

Reminds me of a silly joke I heard when I was a kid... If you cut a glow worm's tail off, would it be de-lighted?
-
It's sad when your back goes got more often than you do, isn't it? (And when you get to that age when you have to be careful that it's only a fart...)
-
Any mention of a wall always makes me think of Pink Floyd.
-
I had my tongue firmly in my cheek at the time, Albert. (And I've since edited it to try to make that a bit clearer)
-
Pity wee Donald never got that wall built. That might have kept the dastardly aliens out.

Perhaps be careful what you wish for...
