This morning the acid in the mouth didn't wake me up until 630. Rather than disturb Ev I decided to get up and sit in a chair with a glass of water until the nasty taste went away.
This morning (for the benefit of readers away from the UK shores) a bit of History was made with the retirement from his Breakfast Show of Sir Terry Wogan. The guy has with a break of 10 years been doing the business since 1973. I indulged myself by listening to the last show. To add to this, my brother Charles was reading the news on the show. Wogan had invited him and the other members of the crew to Lunch, which was still going strong at 5.00PM.
I resolve not to go on too much about food except to say that with my Soup I tried a slice of toast at Lunch and this evening I had some slices of Pizza. The "procedure" has made a huge difference. There is still a tendency to be constipated but I am sure that can be rectified.
It was very nice in the hurly burly in the run up to Christmas to have a couple of quiet hours this afternoon. The next few days are going to be very hectic.
From time to time I have written about the ferry services and the difficulties when the Companies have no spare capacity. I heard tell of someone today who had booked on the 1030 sailing to the Mainland. This was cancelled. He was not able to get off the Island until the 12.00 sailing. He had a 100 mile plus journey to do as well. We hope the service will be fully functional when we next use it on Wednesday. The worst of it is these Companies are accountable to nobody.
