The sun is shining

Well, first thing we went for a swim and go to the pool before it officially opened at 9 am , I thought it opened at 8 am so a few minutes sitting in the sun awaiting the official door unlocking. I always have to be careful at swimming pools as the tiled flooring can be extremely slippery . This pool is not to bad as they have rough tiles is most places except right at the main entrance. No when tells you that when having loads of chemotherapy that it cand , and most likely, will affect not only your balance but also the nerves in your feet and the skin seems to change so that every tile is an ice rink.  However I have a pair of special shoes for the pool and swimming just in case.

Anyway the sun is shining and the sky is blue, sounds like a song, and so we both spent some time on the balcony watching the world go by with Jennifer reading a copy of ‘Abroad in Japan’ and Noel listening to music. For lunch Noel made a smorgasbord, actually cheese and ham with biscuits, most enjoyable.

It was this point things seem to be go wrong. I have a spare mobile phone, for emergencies, which also holds all my years of CD’s and LP’s etc which I use when travelling to listen on airplanes etc, suddenly decided to be corrupted it says. If I was at home I could have sorted it as all the master copies are on one of my hard drives should their be a failure.  Oh well something look at when we get home.

Later in the afternoon there was some football with Brighton playing Notts Forest, a slow first half with the second half better and then extra time going in to penalties with Nots Forest being the winners. Shame really I don't really support either team but thought it would be nice for Brighton to win, but not to be. Dinner was poached cod with some leftover salmon with mashed potatoes and veg and we cheated and had a glass of wine from the bottle that we are due to open tomorrow as we are due to have steak, well it is Sunday.

Now things really started to go pear shape, we have used for some years when travelling a ROKU Dongle which when plugged in to the HDMI slot of any TV and via the internet, Hey Ho, you can access Netflix, BBC I-player etc and which we have used for the past two weeks, suddenly has stopped working. So I spent some trying everything but I think its had it. So it is unplugged and reset and will leave overnight to let it think what punishment it will befall, so know looks like will have to plug the Notebook PC into the Tv and watch programs this way. I could try and order a new one but it will be all in Spanish and arrive to late for areal use.



I noticed that when looking at both Facebook and you tube many US Citizens are having there Tesla cars scratched or keyed as they don't like Elon Musk, last year he was a god, but know he his not liked by the presumably Democrats as he stirs up the US Government finances. Well people fail to realise that the Tesla car is fitted with seven cameras and it fully records the action and so these so called stupid people are getting picked up by the the police and ruining their lives. Clearly these people are idiots when you see what Musk has done with Nuralink and also help saving US Astronauts.
