A little drunk.

Not sure how, when the pub has closed down.

Now reopened as a "fusion style restaurant and bar" called Cartel.
Hope that won't mean painting the brickwork grey.

The days of the jovial British pub are nearly over.
Smoking was banned to discourage the working class from using them,
and now they're being turned into expensive restaurants for Liberals.

1. No pub landlord ever opted to ban smoking.
2. Middle class people too both used pubs and smoked.

Today I had three needles stuck in me. Beat that.

I almost beat that when I went to the dentist and had three injections up my front gums.
They were so painful, I was nearly lifting off the chair, and afterwards my signature was
so shaky that I thought it was a forgery next time I saw it.

Hope yours weren't mRNA jabs.

I've had so many needles stuck in me here and there that I've ceased to notice the pain.

One of today's was a blood test and the others flu and Covid booster jabs; I don't know if they were mRNA or not. Last week I had an RSV jab, and I promise never to have another.

I'm sure you would notice the pain I described above.

I think you're crazy having covid booster jabs.
Were they Moderna or Pfizer? Or don't you know that either?

I dare say. I feel all the injections, blood sample takings and catheter insertions, of which I've had so many, but that's something else.

I don't, because I work on a need-to-know basis only and follow medical advice, accepting that it may be wrong (as it proved with the chemotherapy) but is the best available advice at the time. Two friends have had the latest Covid variant and were quite ill, and for me that presents a greater risk than the vaccine.

Funny how the jab fanatics tend to get these things and the unjabbed don't.
Perhaps the jabs are damaging their immune system.

But to get back on topic: my father was middle class and he smoked in pubs.
But he was Conservative, not a loony Liberal, and believed in a free country.

TBA about the effect of the jabs, which left my upper arms so sore that last night I couldn't lie on either side. But the blood test was worth doing. I got the result today, and evidently the 7-week, 5-days-a-week course of pelvic radiotherapy which I finished last month worked, my PSA having dropped from 1.27 in July to 0.07.

That's good news. Perhaps it was also the effect of seeing so many storks.

When a stork appears in your life, it’s believed to bring good luck and signify positive changes on the horizon. Whether it’s in dreams or reality, a stork sighting could mean that delightful things are coming your way.
