    That should be good fun @SheffieldMan1976. It's a shame to miss the grading but if it's been a while since your last holiday I'd say you should treat yourself.

    We've just had some rain too @Johnboy412000. It went incredibly dark and I had to put the light on!

    Yeah, I just think it'll be annoying going for 3 days in a Caravan with someone who can't stop banging on about going to ruddy Lapland to see someone who arguably doesn't exist!

    Even if santa doesn't exist, I think a trip to Lapland would be magical! I can see how it wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea though @SheffieldMan1976.

    Sam (my cat) met his first frog this afternoon. I moved a plant pot and there was a frog behind it. The frog jumped , I jumped and so did Sam.

    Thankfully it managed to go under a bush and Sam could not get it.

    Hi Rachel,

    Managed another ten hours of interrupted sleep last night. Still not managing to make it through the day without feeling tired. Nodded off on the sofa again, woke up and decided to sit on the bed watching the last Harry Potter, alas I nodded off again. I am supposed to watch the new Spider-Man tomorrow morning, however I am 50/50 as I know I will probably end up falling asleep. Going to take things easy, be kind to myself and see how things go over the coming days. I am awaiting blood test results for possible thyroid or diabetes, alongside a Chest X-Ray.

    Glad to hear you're going to be kind to yourself @Rag_793. I hope you make it to see Spiderman but if you're not up to it then don't force yourself. Fingers crossed your results come back soon so you can find out what's going on.

    Torrential rain today, on and off, just like yesterday. Not sure if I can get Gus out before about 02:00. I think our summer is coming to an end.

    We could do with some of that rain here. The grass is now completely yellow and so dry. 😥

    Good morning.

    I've had a really busy time lately out enjoying the sunshine with friends.

    I had my living room/kitchen decorated and I'm pleased with the result.

    It is the start of the Boardmasters festival here in Cornwall and its going to be mega busy with the tourist season in full swing.

    The weather is great and we have lots of free entertainment happening with street stalls, live music etc.

    I may venture out later to the bowling club.

    I only live a short stroll from the town and beaches.

    I hope you all manage to have as a good a day as you can.

    Good morning everyone. Heavy rain here this morning. Out for lunch later with a friend will enjoy a catch up.

    I hope you all have as good a day as you can.

    Take care.

    Good Afternoon,

    Quiet day to say the least, exhausted still. Decided to go for a walk up to the local Chippy for Dinner. Spending the day watching SWAT and may watch a film later before an early night.

    Annoying afternoon because {moderated content} downstairs delights in telling me I can't go to my Parents on Friday because the House car's in use for another resident's birthday bash.

    Been on and off showers here and sunshine. It's cooled off now thank goodness. Went to town this morning and then a bus ride to Halifax and home again. Just a chill out evening now.

    Fed up of feeling exhausted, every time I roll over in bed I wake up. Years ago I could sleep from the minute my head hit the pillow until my alarm went off in the morning. I guess I have my mental and physical health declining since 2023 to thank for that. I have crashed again mentally and hit a brick wall. I keep asking myself what my purpose in life is, which I don’t have a clue. People would say that I am a kind and good person, but frankly I feel like I am by far one of the worse people in the world. I am questioning if I want to head to Manchester in October to watch a theatre show, but being back in the area near where I grew up may bring a whole host of challenges for my mental health. If I have to many things going off, I tend to hit overload and crash. I just keep saying things like “Just” “Why” “What’s The Point” I honestly most days want to give up fighting and just stay locked away in my flat with all the blinds shut. I am awaiting a procedure to take a tooth out, waiting for neurology for my neck alongside some recent tests. People say try to be kind to yourself, but when you can’t catch a break, you just end up hating yourself even more.

    I'm sorry you're mental wellbeing is taking a bit of a crash at the minute. I don't know you much, but from what I do, I definitely wouldn't say you're one of the worse people in the world. You seem friendly and kind to others. I hope you start to feel a bit better. Did you see Spiderman yet?

    Sadly I haven’t seen the new Spiderman as yet, playing things by ear at the moment. Keeping my head down, going to take things one minute at a time. Always fighting this inner demon’s inside of myself for the last 43 years is draining. My fight or flight is always on a heightened level with my mental health is not good.
