Plague 51

Another happy day on the fens , himself and the cuckoo have taken themselves fishing so im doing not a lot today just a potter around sort of day , im so tired i may be feet up and fall asleep with some inane rubbish on the TV day . Yesterday turned out a much better day , the third son biked 30 miles to see us for the first time in months , more to ask me if i could get the mould out of his very expensive motorbike jacket , hed left it in his boot and the boot had leaked , nothing what half a gallon of  white vinegar couldnt tackle in the washer , i struggled to get it in the washer hes such a big lad , he will pop back sometime next week for it, i cant figure out how to get all the armour and liners into it . He was made redundant back in March and his landlord has dropped his rent down to Housing Benefit level till hes working again because hes a good reliable tenant , plus hes doing a bit of work for the landlord here and there .  Hes been very quiet of late so i had already gathered hed found a girlfriend but was keeping it quiet . Watching young Baldrick prancing around he did comment that he was glad his girlfriend had a couple of small kids as he wouldnt dare have any of his own .  Hes fortunate that hes the least affected of the males in his mothers family apart from having cataracts he just has a few very minor joint problems . Its a syndrome that comes as a lot of letters and numbers , females are carriers and have Ehlers Danlos and early onset dementia to look forward to , males can have anything from cataracts to severe autisms ,EDS and loads more goodies but have a much lower rate of passing it on.  In this day and age why would anyone plan to have children without genetic screening at least .knowing this is in the family .
So the sofa and the TV remote are calling , day of sloth and working out a very cheap online shopping list . Tesco gripe , they sent me some £8 off a £40 spend vouchers which is a very useful amount , sadly they are only to be used instore , i havent ventured into Tesco since March , mainly because by the time ive queued for ages i need the loo. They abandoned the village back in March for online shopping and have only just appeared  again . Morrisons continue to be dire online, this week we got no milk , no eggs no meat its like a lottery.
