Did a clean install of Catalina on my MacBook Pro today.

Well, it took six days & huge doses of anti-gout medication, but the condition has cleared up completely: now when I walk I only have an arthritic knee to bother me.

Run away, run away!

Attacks vary. Sometimes ½ a day, this one may linger with slight daily improvements for a week.

Midnight. I’ve been in bed most of the preceding day, severe gout in my left ankle, making walking almost impossible.
Forced myself to go out about 7 hours ago, to top up desperately needed medication as the stuff I was using seemed ineffective.
I needed to use my folding walker to keep my weight off the ankle which is now improving very slowly.
Whilst laid up I have kept myself hydrated but had little interest in food, having consumed ½ a bag of potato chips & 250 a gram tin of smoked sprats.
Having trouble caring about very much at present.

Bloody cat. The end of her elasticised braided polyester collar was so frayed by her scratching at it that it pulled away from the buckle. The whole thing fell off while she was inside, so I was able to locate the ID tag & the hanging magnet that activates the catch in the cat-door to the outside.
Six months ago I bought a flea collar on Amazon (about 50% off normal retail price) and it was still sealed in its plastic wrapping & storage tin.
So now her magnet & ID tag are attached to her new flea collar. It provides 8 months of flea control.

My goodness, whatever happened to require the replacement of the fuel tank?

That wasn’t clear in your original post, it just said iPad.

I asked the librarian for a book about Pavlov's dogs and Schrödinger's cat. She said it rang a bell but she didn't know if it was there or not.
