I Stood Here…

I Stood Here...Poke in the eye day.  Travel with Carol to work and continue on to the delightful Leigh.  Arrive too early for the Costa to be open so repair unto McDead thing, mainly because I need the loo.  Breakfast and coffee before I head up to to the Walk-In.  Wander up the Avenue,  arrive there at about 07:45.  Hang around 15 minutes waiting on coffee. Then head into the Walk-In. Way too early when I sign in.

Wait around 45 minutes before I get called in to get the poke in the eye.  It goes ok.

Walk down to Leigh and light is a vague issue but not enough to break out the shades.  Coffee and then head to the bus/

Stop off at Asda in Goldborne looking for fence preserver.  Not there so might need a trip out in the morning before I get on with slapping it on tomorrow (weather permitting).

PeacefulA week of lates beckons. News full of Ofcom’s Affordability of communications services: April 2023 update a day of drops beckons.  Sure enough the day pans out that way,  a usual week may have one or two in it.  Today 4 of the buggers.

In other news I end up chatting to someone who works at SLAIS and who knew the McIlwaine’s.  Ia has apparently shuffled of this mortal coil which is sad.  Turns out she has a Wikipedia page the obit is here.

Bus home was a bit of an adventure, came home via Winstanley, no idea why, was a touch weird but what the heck.

Photo today was a Sunday snap when I got beyond a set of gates that are usually shut.  I guess a little light urbex. Either way it was interesting and the string of lights set things off nicely.

Tomorrow’s prompt is ‘found’ so will have to channel my inner Marcel Duchamps.  Be interesting to see what sort of found objects I come across.
