Friday news years Eve 2021

What a crazy few days it's been. Christmas was quiet for us the second day running, watched the Mary Poppins sequel about the Banks children as adults.

Dad's catheter was blocked on Boxing day, spent hours on the phone to 111 services. I was panicking that we wouldn't be able to get any help, eventually, the nurse came. She had called earlier at 8 pm, but because she banged the door, only my parents couldn't hear because they are deaf.

We had soup for dinner which peeved me off, as everyone else was having roast dinners etc. Gemma the lady who lives next door has Covid, yet I've seen people coming and going when she's supposed to be isolating!

The PM wants people to take care at NYE parties, be a lot of idiots in town tonight.

The anti-vaxers are being assholes. They dared to invade a vaccination centre in Milton Keynes & throw cones at people. The government must do something about these idiots who put razor blades in their posters.  Bring out the water cannons!

Penny rang me up a few days ago to say she went to Ogbourne village for Christmas and caught Covid from her sister who came on the train from London. London is one of the worst-hit areas for Covid.

I had to go into town at 5ish for a smear test, I was dreading it. I put the sheets back on my bed and took the rubbish out, there's a funny smell in my kitchen.

Devises Road looks like Las Vegas in places, I like Christmas lights but I wouldn't want their electricity bill!

Watched a Bridge too far and the battle of the bulge, lot of carrying on films were being shown.

At Midnight I'm going to see if any fireworks will be let off, someone earliest was letting a few off on the hill; it's all quiet on the Western front for now.
