Good Morning Thursday, 21st August 2025

Hi

OK, just bruised and feeling very annoyed with myself.

I can’t remember what happened and was woken up by the call centre trying to get me to answer.

I took too long and so now people will be all over me because of that.

I could do without all the fuss.

Thanks for asking though Bob.

We just have a router in the lounge. the signal is srong enough to be able to use the internet in any room. It also is the same router for the telephone, which is a DecT system being cordless with at the moment 2 telephones on it. the phones can also be used anywhere in the house or garden.

That means if I had stayed with BT apart from maybe commercial poperties a lot of my wiring of houses has gone. Thank goodness I got out when I did

No Rose, here in Yorkshire we now start conversations about the lack of rain…Give it time though, and we’ll soon be back to normal.

On the local radio in the last few days was some information about a Wollongong Uni project (I think it was) to help people recover from falls. There was an interview with a lady who had benefited from it, she had previously had falls and been unable to get up again and couldn’t get to her phone.

She said that the program trained her in techniques to get up and since then has been able to recover from falls. I was tempted to enrol myself.

Personally I haven’t had many falls but I do have problems getting up after doing some activity on the ground. in the garden I always take a milk crate with me or have one nearby :grin: (and always make sure my phone is in my pocket.)

I hope you are fully recovered from your fall.

Hi

Thanks for that Bruce, it means a lot.

Nope , not fully recovered and will never recover from incidents like that.

I am in end stage Heart Failure, I will never get better and every time I have an issue, I can’t get back to what I could do before I had that event.

No great shakes,death is as reliable as being born, it comes to us all.

The thing is, enjoy every minute you can.
