Well, it's apparently a Whippet day. Fortunately, I got the memo.

Thanks! Yes, I did contract the dreaded Whippet Fever for a while last year. Might be worse than the Covid. I know it cost me more to get over the Whippet Fever than. It cost me to get over the Covid!
You had Covid too? My wife and I must have caught it at The New Year's Eve dinner/dance that we went to. For me it was like a miserable heavy cold but it really laid my wife low. Mercifully we are through the worse now, both tested negative, but the lady has had all her energy sapped.

This evening though, I cheered her up, she's finally off the soup diet, it was all she could manage whilst in Covid's grip, I cooked our meal and served her's on a tray so that she could finish watching the TV program.
It made her smile when she saw me dressed up in one of our old dance costumes.

"Cha-cha-cha dear," I said,as she took the tray. "I wish," she replied. But it was good to see her smiling again.
Here's the top part of that costume.

Oh NO…. I had heard there were now variants and sub variants of HAS going around the lounge. Very very contagious!

Glad to hear you're both on the mend, Robert. And by the looks of things it hasn't dimished any of the usual panache. Best to pamper the lady some more for a bit; where are you ever going to find another like that!?

Is there something lost in translation this morning? "On some days a very bright shining orb could even be seen in the sky. Very strange. Think I should report that?" Followed by a very rain spattered Stefan.

Today's choice would have to be the Tonak Jota. Their website says: "Unique TONAK head gear are designed to not only guarantee refined style and quality, but also to fulfill required functional criteria." Can't argue with that.

That military raincoat could use a new home, I love it.

The orb that you speak of has made an appearance here too, not strong enough to give you the colour of today's lid, in fact, even the blazer hardly looks it's true green and the shoes are more khaki looking than the green that they are. Time to get a decent phone with a half decent camera.

Thank you, Robert. I'm happy to see your usual spiffy self around, even if that strange orb didn't warrant going out.
