OK, so my new hot water system can heat 26 litres per minute vs the old one's 16 litres per minute. Tomorrow I'll increase the water pressure at the water meter tap out the front. Then I'll be able to utilise the massage/pulse settings of the showerhead more effectively.

Personally, the worst 2016/69 combination was my dear cousin's wife. Back in July she was feeling unwell one evening and went for a lie down on the couch. Sometime in the next five hours she had a heart attack & never woke up.

And another 340ml cup of hot tea (not Earl Grey) is disposed of in double-quick time.

It's a brute-force fix. I want something more subtle. Bring on the nanobots.

dry now.

Walking any sort of distance is difficult enough with the osteoarthritis in one knee & sciatica affecting all of the other leg when it strikes, but now I've strained a muscle in my lower back on the sciatica side. No idea what or how, but any movement is now feeble & painful. I twitch & lurch more than I walk.

Only light rain now. The cat has come inside from taking a dump in the back yard & her fur is only slightly damp.

An nation with its priorities properly sorted.
