I washed my favourite woollen beanie (recently had a short haircut & it's mid-winter) and laid it out to dry. Damn thing stretched & is no longer a tight fit. Went internet shopping & found a nice one at a store called Boating, Camping & Fishing. They have a 48-hr flash sale on right now, with significant discounts for buyers club members. Joined up, bought the hat for $13 instead of the normal $28. It's in stock at the local outlet & I can collect it tomorrow.
@phoneboy I rarely eat bread these days, when I do it's something like dark rye, sourdough rye or a multigrain variety that sells in a ½-sized loaf.
Other ones I don't mind are spelt & oat breads, the latter only using oats, no other grains. It's also a sourdough.

It's mid-winter. We're five days into the second Covid-19 lockdown since March, this time for a 6-week period. It's less strict than other nations as far as lockdowns go but we're asked not to leave home for other than four reasons: shopping for food or essentials; medical/health or caregiving; going to work if it can't be done from home & exercise.
This can lead to vitamin D deficiency, by which I suspect I may be affected. This time of the year I'm normally outside a lot more, so I need to employ that exercise aspect of the out of home in lockdown process.

For a change as I prepare for another night's sleep I have no aches or pain in my left shoulder & upper arm. No drugs or special creams used, either. Simply heat, heat with vibration and vibration alone from a mains-powered hand-held massager have combined to put me in this relaxed state.
‘I’ before ‘e’ except when weighing, surveilling or reimbursing either a seized caffeinated deity or a heinous seismic poltergeist on a heifer whose neighbour reignited eight feisty foreign sovereign atheist reindeer after a heist. That’s weird…
@jextxadore Looks liken there is something hinky with the TB3/DVI adapter: I'm no longer getting the ghosting issues now that I'm using the USB 2 DisplayLink adapter.
@jextxadore Same problems when hooked up to a TB 3-fitted MacBook Pro. I'm about to try using a USB 2 DisplayLink external video card.
Damn. We’re back in lockdown for six weeks as of midnight tomorrow. Residents in affected areas will be barred from leaving their homes for any purpose other than work, food, exercise or medical care. Retail businesses will remain open subject to density limits, markets will be for food and drink only and hairdressers will remain open.
The results are in, I have failed my Covid-19 test. They were looking for evidence of the virus & didn't find any sign of it in my samples.
