I phoned up for a telephone appointment with a doctor.

While waiting for the ring back, I got on with yesterday's blog post.

He doesn't want to know my gmail email, the red light will flash!

Going to wait for that to enter the email box!

The Covid cases in Redditch are higher than Bromsgrove. If we weren't in lockdown, we would be in Tier 2.

We had a email saying half of year 9 and the year my youngest son is in will have to stop at home for the next two weeks. They will do their lessons on Microsoft Teams.

Next up was the fire alarm going off in next door's factory. The red light going off as well.

Next thing we know a fire engine turns up to check everything is alright.

Off goes the fire alarm and red light!

Back to Hell's Kitchen
