The yabby went by the way side a while back. I think it had an argument with the main pond pump and lost. I probably should have kept it in a separate
tank until it got a bit bigger and stronger before putting it in the pond.

That's a bit vague Bonny: bad day;some stuff.
Our grid appears to be working so we got some new fish.
We've made some rearrangements around the house so I've now got a proper workshop again. I haven't had one since we moved back to Adelaide nine years
ago. It's centred on a large work bench that I built out of scrap wood when we were living in Sydney. There's an old garden shed here where I've been
able to do various odd jobs but it's not a very hospitable environment and just wasn't the same thing. I've been getting all kinds of odd jobs done
around the house and garden and yesterday, to help improve organisation in the worksop, I made myself a little bench out of wood salvaged from my
youngest son's old bed. The garden's looking really good again too. It was easier to get back in shape this Spring as a result of all the work I did
last Summer.

Went to the dentist for the checkup, it's looking good, return in Feb.
After that I cycled to Aalst - on my last visit to the Timco (big shop that buys stock from bankrupt shops) I saw that silver polish with actual
silver particles, HG Silver Plating Polish. Originally it's quite expensive stuff and I have a collection of 7 adorable silverplate duck-shaped
moneyboxes which could use maintenance. On top of that we have some silverware that sustained damage when a much younger BBP tried to be helpful by
cleaning them with a scrounging pad.
Stuff doesn't work. Good thing it was 70% off at that shop, it's only 50 ml and quite expensive at 16 euros retail price.
Tried to get Fine Girl in my head while polishing but had to settle for the Dutch version of Rubber Duckie Song.

Sounds exciting.
I managed to drop a very large rock yesterday and got my finger jammed between it and a section of tree trunk. The top segment of my finger got
crushed so hard that it burst and produced what looks like large cut. It's the ring finger of my left hand so no guitar for a while. I can still play
the piano with nine fingers so it's not a complete wipe out of musical activity.
The locum doctor who came to see me last night put a butterfly strip on it, which was not really necessary and he put it on too tight. I should have
cut the bloody thing off last night before going to bed because I woke this morning with it in worse condition than before I saw the doctor. The
swelling had increased and moved into the joint which was fine last night and it was throbbing like hell. I cut the butterfly strip off myself and it
proceeded to get better almost immediately. I saw my usual doctor today and the nurse put a really groovy bandage on my finger and gave me tetanus
shot.
I don't need this injury right now and it's my fault. My stupidity astounds me sometimes.

Aw Poly, accidents like that happen, you can't help it. No need to talk yourself down like that, you're hurt enough already.

I managed to get it pretty tidy in a short time though. Reason was my boyfriend came to visit. He'd been on a business trip to Germany and was able to
visit me and the Glow lights festival yesterday. He'd planned to go back the same night but we could hardly send him back on the road for a three-hour
trip at midnight, so we had to improvise a place to stay. For me, since I let him have my bed. Ended on the floor with a few foam mats and a chilly
sleeping bag. So I'm exhausted but at least BF had a decent night's sleep. He's off again.
And we went to visit Glow, which was ace!

The airbed is in one piece but my back isn't. I'm exhausted.

And the scanning is done!
My ankle has been giving me trouble lately, to the extent that I'm thinking of having the pins removed.

You've got pins in your ankle? I didn't remember. How did that happen?
