Because you're worth it...

Hello all. It's been a slow week to say the least. So much so I've been considering compiling a list of pseudo-science terms used in TV adverts. There's one annoying one in particular for an eye lash torturing device that uses the theme tune from Magnum PI. Why Magnum PI? How can one of the most masculine fictional characters of the twentieth century sell eye crap? All I can think is that women might want eye lashes that look like Tom Selleck's moustache. Like I said a slow week.

Went for lunch in Stratford and had a wonder around. It was a bit cold so the wondering was kept to a minimum, but we did find a sweet shop that sells chocolate covered espresso beans. Although there was some disappointment in Anisa actually liking and eating half of them. She can not stand coffee, and so I thought it was a safe purchase. Perhaps she was chocolate deprived.

I've has plenty of visitors through the week which was good. Thanks again for those who came. Some brought cake. Some did not. I shall not pass judgement. It's probably best I stay away from the cake given the state of my second chin anyway. I tried having a carrot earlier in lieu of biscuits. Fact: biscuits are better than carrots. Still there's Sunday lunch with Anisa's mum tomorrow and there's a treacle sponge involved at some point.

And so the waiting continues. No update on the health front. Still feeling fine. Still due in hospital on Tuesday with the op Wednesday.

Will check in before then.
