Update on my bashed toe... Probably not broken after all. Just very badly smashed. The bruising is already fading and the swelling has receded overnight. Still very painful, but feels much better. Hooray!

AARRGGHH! Lunchtime today: tripped & accidentally kicked an outside skirting board corner! REALLY HARD! Think I might have broken my little toe. I’ve broken toes before & this feels/looks the same. And blimey, it’s *PAINFUL* As if I don't already have enough trouble getting around...

The Moon, early this morning, loitering amidst the trees...

Just reposted a PKD quotation - and now feel like it needs a pic of the great man too. So here's one...

Pic of the brilliant writer Philip K Dick.

The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use the words. —Philip K. Dick,

Today’s walk: 14 mins And shattered again, like yesterday, with the added joy of my feet going numb towards the end. Nice. [Trying To Get Fit] I am pretty fed up of being “infirm” & I’m aiming to get some *proper* fitness back this year. But... well... <sigh>

Story idea #42 - LAURA NORDER: SUV [crime series] Laura Norder, a quirky ex-DCI who enjoys archery, drives round the countryside in her Toyota Land Cruiser and often finds herself entangled in peculiar crimes and weird murders, which always seem to end with an off-road car chase.

A still from the TV series Colin’s Sandwich, showing Colin (played by Mel Smith) at his typewriter, writing his latest story.

Today’s walk: 11 mins ...and absolutely shattered! [Trying To Get Fit] Not walked much in 2024. First few days of January I went out, but since then cold, rain, wind, general health, etc, have limited me to a 6-min & a 4-min walk, both over 10 days ago. Now feel like I’m back at square one... <boo>

Story idea #27: NICOLA’S PARSONS [comedy/horror] Nicola inherits The Century, a small Norwich hotel, from a distant uncle. But she’s no hotelier & looks for a buyer to take it over. Unfortunately her plans for the sale of the Century are complicated by 3 spectral parish parsons who haunt the place.
