No walkies today

I'm full of fever and antibiotics. Bloody flu again.

After only an hour of effort I got out of bed at nine. Made a nice hot cuppa tea and I'd drunk half of it before I realised 1) it was in a bowl instead of a cup.

Not terribly good walkies weather anyways. Overcast and rainy. Light's all wrong for photos.

I'm going to read a few blogs then totter off for a little lie-down before lunch.

Send vodka.

Finlandia or Vodka-O?

I wanted to let you know that the blog Blissed died in the arse. But I have a new Blog called Pleasant Avenue, which is pics from around the northern beaches/Pittwater (not as much writing).

Cosseting? Is that one of those aussie expressions that don't quite mean what you think they mean? Shouldn't you be conserving your strength?

Suzanne & Pattie, LOL. I am indeed conserving my strength. Got cabin fever and determined to go walkies tomorrow.

Right now I'm sitting on the balcony soaking up the morning sun's strength then it's back to bed.

No waterview. Would if I knocked down the house in front but they might object.

My balcony gets the full sun all day. Glorious spot in this sort of weather. I sit out there under a blanket and drench myself with warmth.

Think you might be right. The Dear Old Things have been telling me horror stories of this year's flu strains lasting for a fortnight. Might shoot myself if it comes to that.
