Exiled from Lancashire. Still rather fond of dogs, cows, beer, books and The Beloved. Lots of dogs on my social media feed but that's only because cows can't type. Or can they...

If anyone has HBO Max could I please suggest you waste 38 minutes of your life watching 'God Was The Bigger Elvis.' Delightful and sad in equal measures.

I have just been in my email account and discovered 76 messages in my junk box since this morning. I think I'm on some sort of list! All deleted with one single flick of the finger.

Seem to have spent my entire morning renewing our broadband contract only for things to stay exactly as they are for another 2 years. Not sure whether to begrudge the time that feels wasted or rejoice in not having increased bills!

I was today years old when I discovered that the fingers on my right hand are not the same sizes as on my left. If ever I have to order a 'finger of whiskey' I will use middle finger, left hand as a measure!

Following my moans last week re not getting post, we got an avalanche of it yesterday including the missing birthday cards, a hospital letter, two from Govt departments and others that Royal Mail obviously consider non-essential. I stand by my claim that they're not fit for purpose.

The chap charged with ensuring porn sites comply with OFCOM regulations is called George Lusty. It's a job he was born to!

Pizza Express, Woking have just had a cancellation for a birthday party this evening if anyone's interested. Seems AMW will be unable to honour the booking.

Time for my annual rant about the cost of house insurance. Renewal quote is +£240 on last year and we've still never made a claim in the 23 years we've lived here. Harsh. My weekend will be spent shopping around. All suggestions gratefully received!

Now I know why the Government is skint. Just received a letter from the DWP telling me I'll be eligible for the state pension in June 2030, and that they'll contact me 4 months ahead of my due date! What a monumental waste of money...

Both of us struck down with the latest COVID caper, and feeling somewhat grotty. Never realised the sheer effort that goes into making a cuppa!

Good old #RoyalMail A small package, posted on Thursday last week, has just arrived. It was tracked 48hour delivery. It's also the first time we've had a postal delivery in this area since last Friday. Appalling service.

Settling in for a day of Chimney watching. It's weird that I can be so fascinated by the process of electing a new Pope whilst giving not one single hoot about the actual result!

Want to watch Indian Wells tennis but don't want to spend £35 on NOW sports cos I detest the parent company. Not sure whether to just bite the bullet or watch on a tiny screen on the betting sites. Decisions, decisions...

Seems as well as being incompetent, @RoyalMail are blatant liars. Email to say they tried to deliver a parcel this morning. We've both been home all day, can see if the van comes down the street (it didn't), and no card left to say they'd been. Disgusting service.

President Zelensky will meet King Charles at Sandringham tomorrow. A spokesman for the King said the purpose of the meeting was "to annoy the fuck out of that dreadful orange shithead"

At the opticians this morning where I finally bowed to the inevitable and ordered new specs. Home again now and if anybody wants me, I shall be in a corner sobbing quietly at the expense.

Publication day for the latest Jonathan Kellerman novel and, thanks to the miracle of modern technology, it's on my Kindle just waiting to be devoured. If anyone wants me I'll be curled up in a corner, reading happily.

Today I had my first alcoholic drink (truly a tiny amount) in 10 days and it's gone straight to my legs. My journey upstairs to bed will be akin to Hillary and Tenzing climbing Everest. But not quite as cold.

Off for a steroid injection this morning so if you hear a scream around 8:50am it's only me. Hurts like hell but will be worth it in the end!

Had our home insurance renewal quote this week. Considering we've never made a claim in the 22 years we've lived here, an increase of 67% over last year is just taking the p***. And they say that's the best they can do. Time to change provider, methinks.

Just put the Christmas tree up. It's about 18 inches tall, comes ready decorated, and spends 50 weeks of the year in the cupboard under the stairs.

We've reached the time of year for weird food combinations as we attempt to empty the freezer before the Christmas re-stock. Lean mince and parsnips with your apple strudel, maybe? Or braising steak in a Cornetto gravy?
