    My sympathies Flumpy. I’ve had so many ear infections over the years that they put a grommet in the ear drum to aerate/drain it and now I just put up with the discomfort without having antibiotics. This infection was called “tropical ear” when it started in Darwin (before 1974). 😡

    Morning.

    oh no - sounds like germs and ailments are making an appearance. OH has a virus/cold/man flu thing and my throat is a bit scratchy today...yikes! 🤧😷🤒

    Have a decent Friday all. 
    My garden and I live in South Wales.

    If OH gets a cold I expect he’ll blame me for persuading him onto public transport yesterday 😷

    Hello everyone. Hope the colds clear up quickly, and don't get passed on. And ouch, Flumpy - ear infections are SO painful. 

    I'm annoyed with myself. Was just popping round the corner, tripped up a kerb, faceplanted the pavement and now have a split lip, grazed knees, grazed nose / chin. No serious damage but I look a bit ridiculous and am drinking tea through a straw.

    The drought is featuring on our news quite a lot Pat. Dreadful situation.

    Ouchity ouch ouch @LG_
    I've just seen the "stars" in "Celebrity Big Brother" I'm not sure if they're actually even more Z list than the line up for Strictly.

    Hosta, I saw the "star" names earlier and I don't have a scoopy do who they are.  Same with "Strictly".

    L-G, I did the same as you a few months ago when rushing for a bus. Broke a lens in my specs.....£300 for new specs.  Took a taxi into town the following day.

    I've heard of two of them and am not even interested in those two, Hosta!  I've heard of even fewer of the Strictly ones than usual, but I quite enjoy getting to know them through the series, sometimes. Strictly,  that is, not BB.
