Ante I use good old soap and water but gel is like gold dust at the moment it’s in very short supply. I find it very drying and already we have had people in the pharmacy with their skin very sore from excessive cleaning!
Pizza and TV sounds good to me. Torrential rain again, cats are not impressed!
Good evening Ante. Debs, I'm all for soap and water too. Cannot understand the need for hand gel unless some one is without soap and water. At the party yesterday there was hugging and hand shaking and kissing and no thoughts as to 'should we be being careful'. When we swapped germs they would have been friends and family germs - apart from the bar staff and caterers and I don't think anyone worried.
Ante, your lovely ginger cat looks as if it has been frosted. Has he/she been rubbing under a car or is that its actual colour?
Ooh - forgot to say - chest x-ray was normal.
Cacoethes: An irresistible urge to do something inadvisable
Evening all - another busy day of driving and hospital visiting. FIL was very tired but a little chattier than of late - good to see. Latest news is that the consultant has decided to operate tomorrow afternoon pending a green light from the anaesthetist in the morning. We’ll all be on tenterhooks...
Great news about your X-Ray LB. I think you sort of knew it was just a post-viral cough (as mine has been) but that doesn’t make it any less irritating or draining does it? There just comes a point after many weeks when you just start to worry in case you’re ignoring something more sinister and (very sensibly) need the reassurance from the medics.
The flood waters around York seem to be subsiding but there’s a lot of mud and silt everywhere. I’m itching to get out in the garden again but it will still be too wet to walk on when I get home. However, there will be lots of 30 minute tasks which I can do from paths and the lawn so perhaps I can get on with those this weekend.
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down
Evening T'Bird. You are right. I didn't think there was anything untoward with the cough but feel relieved to have had the confirmation. Happier news about your FIL but I too, can understand the tenterhooks. I've just been out to put some stuff in the bins - before the weekly brain exercises begin at 19:30 and its hissing down again. There is water lying in pools all over the road and the driveway, so my garden will be impassable again tomorrow. I did notice one of my hardy orchids is coming up whilst I was outside this morning, I hope it survives the deluge.

Debs, you are completely right. My hands are so dry from gel but they force us in the school to use gel after every class.
I'm glad that everything is ok with chest x-ray. It's not his normal colour. He was definitely rubbing under the car🤣.
