I caught up with my sleep last night, and did so heavily,
But managed to catch up with Sheffield Jane on video before I crashed
It was Roger who eventually woke me up wanting a wee at 9 ish.
Unlike Dorothy who used to gently occlude my airway with her own neck, Roger tapped my face playfully with a heavy paw
Mary, as usual was dead to the world.
I’ve walked and fed them and when they settle, I will go to Chester to meet my friend Nigel for lunch
This has pleased me as later tonight I’m off to see Troy Hawke a stand up comedian in his one man show.
As you can see from his improv video, he’s quick witted and as sharpe as Margot Channing.
I’m going with Rhian, one of the doctors at work.
Troy Hawke is brilliant isn't he, always seems to say the right things to the right people, although I have seen him get a few black looks. :-)
ReplyDeleteHe almost got thumped once
DeleteThat's a great line - vitamin enriched Brian Blessed. I must remember it. I'm trying to think who I can use it on! Glad you got a good sleep, and have a great evening planned. Enjoy! xx

DeleteGood young Roger!
ReplyDeleteNice to have a reason for a daily walk.
I need to do more walking
DeleteSo...question from the U.S.A. "Do you currently hold an allotment?" in the video. What exactly does that mean? Are you a homeowner vs. a renter? What is an "allotment" in the UK? (I laugh with my guy because he will catch me Googling words from various blogs to get a better understanding.) Thanks for the fun clip!
ReplyDeleteAn allotment is a small area of land, which you can rent from the local council, to grow flowers, fruit and/or vegetables on. xx
DeleteNot only flowers, frut and vegetables, we keep some hens on ours too although not all councils will allow livestock. A bit of tending to the hens, a bit of gardening then a cup of tea on the verandah of the shed before going home with veg and fresh eggs. Bliss.
DeleteThere are lots of videos about allotments on You Tube.
DeleteWe also have allotments in Canada, apartment dwellers use them.
DeleteI used to have a field full of allotments
DeleteOf course you are! Aren’t we all.
ReplyDeleteXx glad you’re home xx
DeleteHahahaha, fun video! Enjoy his show tonight!
ReplyDeleteWe did , he was articulate bright and incredibly funny
DeleteI will now be going googling to find this wit , since you have shown him before. I really like his energy and straightforwardness for the skit. Made me grin and still am grinning. Once you leave the hospice all docs are fair game! I figure it is a woman and you have just given us a name that could be likely either. :) Your a sly one Mr. Grey.
ReplyDeleteRhian is a lady indeed……
DeleteWhat a compliment! I've always loved Brian Blessed.
ReplyDeleteYour plans are delightful and it's lovely that you and friends will have such oggd time togeher.
It's raining here and am ging through a lot of stuff to have a clear out.
in two weeks DS1 and his wonderful wife will pick up a rental truck to beging thir move here. Joy!! Hope they find a new homee not too far way.
Hugs!
It was lovely havinG a full day , and we were sat next to a couple from the village at the show, and before we started another group waved at us madly from the stalls
DeleteI have no idea who Brian Blessed is -- but have fun!
ReplyDeleteHe's a wonderful english actor, built like a man mountain with a voice to match! The guy at the door looked like him but a bit smaller!

Couldn’t we all use a it of cheer like Troy Hawke gives in that video?
ReplyDeleteHe talked about that in his wrap up, about giving a compliment without any caveat
DeleteThat guy could indeed be Fancy Smith with a beard.
ReplyDeleteHe’s a delightfully clever performer , the night flew
DeleteNice to have people to meet and things to do david
