Tasted nice though. And it had a lovely crust.

That's the plan. But it's doing your gut no good at tool.

Did the bird have any giblets?
I finally got around to mounting the kitchen TV, on a cantilevered bracket. I've long been mulling over, how/where to fix it, on to a wall, or the side of a kitchen unit, and just couldn't find a good location, to get it off the worktop. Today, I got it in mind to hang it - but fixed hanging below a unit, hanging from it. It was designed with a two section arm, and the joints lacked enough friction to take the weight, and remain in the position set, so I redesigned it with just a single arm, but pre-pinned the arm position, by drilling and inserting a split pin. It now just swivels side to side, and tilts, but that's all that it needed.
Then this afternoon, I moved onto the mkII version of adapting the stair lift, into a dog lift. Just a piece of board with a metal bracket, so it hooks and latches in place, onto the stair lift foot rest. I managed to snap the first board Mk I, when I knelt on the unsupported end, and the dog was none too impressed with the board covered with foam, then a vinyl surface to lay on. Mk II, has a thicker, stronger board, with a support for the over hanging tail end, a ledge at the leading edge, to stop her paws getting caught between board and stair nose, foam and then covered with carpet.

Unable to sit presently...
Had a Biopsy on the Prostrate this morning - OUCH!
The fun bit was the 'Ride' in the dirty great big Magnet a. fortnight ago. Really interesting images of what I look like inside.

Many years ago, I used to be a subscriber to "New Scientist".
IIRC, there was some developments in treatments of the prostate, which overcame the drawbacks with conventional treatments (ED, incontinence).
Again iirc, a treatment was being trialled, whereby little glass beads were injected into the prostate: this eventually killed it off, so that it basically withered away.
I wonder if this treatment went anywhere, is still in trial, or was given up on?

I had one of those. Out of 69 samples taken, one was found cancerous. They also couldn’t get to the other side where they thought they might have seen something so I had to go back for another biopsy - this time under a general anaesthetic as they went in through my groin. Out of 70 samples taken, nothing found. Oh, in case they haven’t warned you, be prepared for some raspberry jam to come out of the end of your cock the next few times you get your leg over. Although initially frightening, it’s perfectly normal apparently!

Woodland walk with the dogs this morning - still a mud bath over there and the stream is still running - the dogs liked it though.
Went up to the workshop to finish of painting the floor. I did the edges on Saturday so it was a case of moving all the stuff from the middle of the floor to the edges and basically painting myself out of the door. What surprised me was that garage floor paint has changed since I last painted it 10 years ago. It’s now water based instead of oil based so virtually no smell and you can was the brushes and roller out with water. Did all that outside and left all the stuff in the yard. Probably going to give the outside a spruce up when I’m next in.

Revolutionary new microbead prostate therapy gets NHS green light
Procedure using synthetic beads ‘as effective as invasive surgery’ and has fewer side effects

Very interesting. Sounds very promising for enlarged prostate.
I had originally thought you might mean implanting radioactive beads for prostate cancer.

All this prostate talk - it’s like being over the allotment!
My PSA the first time the alarms sounded, was 11-ish, which triggered US, the big magnet and the long finger, then following year 12-ish with more of the same. Last week PSA down to below the threshold of 6.3, at 6
You can ask for a copy of the scan on a DVD, and the software to show your insides, as a souvenir. .
My garden is the same. We've had to limit the dogs access, to just the concrete, with ladders - otherwise she comes in plastered.
