Lucky, lucky, lucky day for me today. I was over Westfield Stratford (again), collecting a new pair of boots that had been changed under warranty and I popped in Waitrose to get a few bits - pasta and rice etc. Anyway, I paid for them at the self service checkout, put them in my backpack and went to leave. As I did, the security guard blocked my way and stopped me. "Look sir", he said and pointed to the checkout I was on. My bloody watch was on it!!! The pin had come out of the head and it had dropped off. Luckily just outside the store was the Omega boutique and they fitted it back together for me. It’s not my most expensive watch but it’s not exactly a cheapie either. Strap was new at Christmas and it’s a genuine Omega strap too with new spring bars. Excuse the poor quality picture.

Cappuccino and flapjack yesterday, afternoon tea today, you’re living the life of Riley up there! You retired or just on holiday?

Today I texted my elderly neighbour (she just hit 70 last year) to let her know I’m available if she needs any shopping or anything. I hadn’t seen her for a few days and was going to go in (I have a set of keys to her house as I look after it when she’s often away cruising). I got a text back saying she was fine but if I needed anything for ME to call HER before the 70 plus lockdown begins. Blooming cheek - I’m 62!

Today, I have been royally mucked about by B&Q. Yesterday I ordered and paid £200 for a DeWalt multi-tool on their 'click and collect' service. Received an email, come up and collect after 1.00. So, up I go and feck me, it ain’t there. They called 'Nicola' over to deal with it. 'Nicola' was a fecking bloke dressed as a bird! "Some problem with the payment" it said. Ballcocks I said and told them to cancel it. "Can’t" it said, as there’s nothing to cancel. "You’ll have to call your bank". I phoned them but busy busy effing busy so set I off home. It wasn’t until I was almost home that I spoke to a real person. They told me it had been authorised. I told them to cancel it, they said they can’t as it’s gone through, just that B&Q haven’t taken it. Now, I’ve either got to wait until it goes through or ‘naturally expires' in 5-10 working days. Wasted a good couple of hours of my time - good job I’ve got lots of it. Currently stuck in limbo.

He's been advised that, apart from him stopping smoking , eating cheese no more frequently than once a month is what he has to do from now on.
