A Lovely 10C Site!

Program for the day: get ready for Zoom conference with statewide men’s health & Awareness group. Today is their AGM on Zoom & I’m our local delegate.

Sometime today I receive my Apple AirTag, it’s with a courier driver out for delivery.

Midafternoon I have a physiotherapy session, he’ll massage the knee that’s been troubling me since Sunday.

Buy a pool noodle from a nearby hardware store: the leisure centre now requires swimmers/aquatic exercisers to bring their own accessories. I reactivated my Covid-dormant aquatic membership fees & will resume a thrice-weekly 40-minute exercise routine provided by the physiotherapist.

Then in two week my GP’s practice will arrange for what’s known in Australia as a Medicare Care Plan, which gives five free visits to a specialist of some sort, I’ll be having the next five physio visits fully paid by Medicare.
I can have one care plan per year, this is a big help with costs & access to practitioners.

And tomorrow, also on Zoom, the Apple User Group holds is AGM - the same event last year was the first full Zoom meeting held after a few months of intense trials.

I have this condition that prevents me from going on a diet.

I get hungry.

@variablepulserate I’m not familiar with your monetary unit. How sound is it?

@jws Whereas the Fahrenheit scale is deadly in its extremes. Zero will kill you, so will 212.

@variablepulserate This one is a Mazda 2. Cheap, cheerful & economical. Not very refined or quiet. Mine is an October 2012 base model, with a couple of features requiring the next model up in other markets. Mazda Australia cecided that all models sold would have stereo system controls on the steering wheel & all models would get cruise control. It’s nit as practical as the Toyota Yaris I had before it, the rear seat area is more cramped & less supportive.

@variablepulserate I’ve never had them go beyond white. That in itself is sufficiently inconvenient.

Strongly suspect my foot circulation problems to be Raynaud Phenomonen. Toes get cold, go numb & lose colour. Exercise & warm multi-layer socks are ther best fix. But when the circulation normalises, the tingling sensation can be rather intense, bordering on painful.

Pretty thorough, this mobile mechanic. He’s shifting his van out of the way, taking my car for a test drive. It’s in rather fine condition for a thing that hasn’t had the proper service schedule followeed. It’s 8½ years old and isn’t far short of 200,000 km travelled distance.
Thinking about my first few cars, they were real clunkers compared to this thing & it’s just a cheap hatchback.
