A Little Poem Regarding Computer Spell Checkers…

Eye halve eh spelling chequer;
It came with my pea sea.
It plane lee marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

Aye strike a quay and type a word
And weight fore it two say
Weather eye am write oar wrong.
It shows me strait aweigh.

As soon as eh mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long,
And eye can put the era rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.

Aye halve run this poem threw it,
I am shore yaw pleas two no.
It's letter perfect awl the weigh – 
My chequer tolled me sew. 

Seeing my GP tomorrow afternoon. I had a fall at home yesterday morning and suffered a headache and sore back for most of yesterday. Those conditions have passed but I have soreness across the lower part of my stomach, it hurts when I cough or make twisting movements. Likely a strain of some kind. We shall see. My GP is an old-fashioned one: prefers poking and prodding to automatically getting imaging services involved. Getting up from a sitting position has its moments,too.

TIL the rear entrance to a bar and gaming establishment is on Stumblers Lane. How appropriate.

Bigamy is one wife too many.

Some would argue that monogamy has the same definition…

When I submitted the details of my old iPad mini to Apple’s trade-in partners, they estimated it to be worth up to $155. When I removed it from its case I found a dent on the back of it. I sent it off last Tuesday anyway, expecting to be notified of a reduction in the trade-in value.
Didn’t happen that way. They paid the full agreed sum of $155.

Today’s weather forecast this time yesterday was for a high temperature of 31°C. That was revised six hours later to 34° at around 4pm. The actual highest temperature reached was 36° a little after 3pm.

@matigo Home temperatures were 32ºC on Saturday, 36º on Sunday, 38º on Monday and 37º today vs the seaside escape location's 29º on Sunday with significant overnight rain, 27º on Monday and 28º on Tuesday.

I'm back home again from my sojourn by the seaside - I went away for two days to escape heatwave conditions inland where I live. There's a cool chane coming through at last, now it's 24ºC whereas it was 37º when I returned home four hours ago. Much relief.

We’re having something of a heatwave at present, four consecutive days of temperatures in the mid to high 30°C range.
I ran away to a tourist/fishing village to the south where the conditions are much milder, stayed overnight in a motel and will stay tonight as well.

"The dildo of consequences rarely arrives lubed" might be my favourite saying of the week.
