The day has come; largely due to the NHS...no longer does the first digit of my age begin with a 6! I don't do parties, just some grub in the garden with 4 grandchildren & a snifter, of course. More time spent looking back than forward. And I did hold that catch at slip in 1968!

Spotify served up a random @johnowenjones @luciejones1 duet "The Prayer" Added it to my playlist, it comes after Evermore by JOJ. Have a long playlist so I have to wait for evermore, for Evermore & for evermore on the last note of Evermore which goes on for evermore.

Asked Ai about a relative with surname Champion who was a champion in sport. It could not cope with a champion called champion and gave a lot of complete twaddle as an answer.

Inspired by @BBCBreakfast couch to 5k reference this morning, I thought, I can do that. Got in the car, drove 5k to the leisure centre and gave my arthritic knee, shoulder, elbow and back a work out in the gym. I say gym, but the jacuzzi is next to it 🤣🤣

My omage to Richard Chamberlain in Count of Monte Cristo when he says, " ask me to forgive those who caused my father to die of starvation... never madam, never." Well, ask me to pay £10.50 for a creme brulee (my favourite dessert), never Sir, never!

So, this coming week is #BritishPieWeek & with it, probably the worst tradition ever. "Pie jus" in other words, parsley sauce. The origin of which was stewed eel water & a pile of parsley. There is little more revolting than a tasty meat pie floating in tasteless pie jus. #GRAVY

If you are struggling to play the scale of C# major, with its 7 sharps, try Db Major; it only has 5 flats! 🤣🤣

A final thought for the day. Can dice, being a cube, actually roll?

Another thought for the day. Surely all waste collection contractors provide a rubbish service.

I recommend this, but I would as I have known the writer since he was on the breast. A parody of The Little Mermaid it's adults only. Funny, but rude.

Watched the #RoyalVarietyPerformance and one of the #valjeans has got a real vibrato problem. Struggle to believe that was coached, but he really would be better off as Tarzan! It really was most odd.
