aren’t black cats lucky

Filed under: diary — Trefor Davies @ 8:40 am

Correct me if I’m wrong but aren’t black cats lucky? Just see one in our front drive. Better buy a lottery ticket. Well I would if I was going anywhere near a shop but I’m not. Except to the junction of Wragby Road and Queensway. 10 mins 18 secs round trip.

Had intended to go at least as far as Curle Ave but very soon realised it was bloody cold out.  I should have paid heed to the SF which told me the north wind was still a blowin and whilst everyone else seemed to be wearing a coat I was not. Hey…

This morning an old bloke on a mobility scooter that had so much chrome I thought it was a Harley Davidson at first. Zoomed by. I thought he’d pulled up at the bus stop but as I got closer I realised it was someone in a motorised wheelchair. Had an empty B&M shopping bag hanging off the back so obviously off into town for a few bits and bobs. Toothpaste maybe. Just guessing 🙂 

As mentioned I tuned in to the SF this morning as I just happened to be awake but after that came the news bulletin which has no interest whatsoever to me so I looked for something else. Found a programme where someone was talking about the writer Robert Louis Stevenson and his penchant for travel. She discussed his book “Travels with a donkey in the Cevennes” and I thought to myself, hey I’ve read that. It was an enjoyable book. I switched the snooze from 15 mins to “end of programme”. Nodded off after that.

As it is a Friday there is no work today although I will need to do a couple of things. If it’s Friday it is cook a chicken casserole day and then nip to see physio Claire in the Bromhead. Plenty to discuss with her. THG is going to drop me off. Walking to the Bromhead, whilst ordinarily doable, is a step too far at the mo.
