Can information that isn’t true be leaked?

I’m really not sure it can. I feel that if the information provided isn’t true then it’s just someone making shit up.

Clearly Sleepy Don believes otherwise.

Given the inconsistencies between Trump’s (and others’) statements, I’m really not inclined to believe what he says about their munitions, particularly given the claims that they have more than they need, but require significant emergency funds to replenish them.

Another tomato harvest today.

I’m trying to get into the habit of picking anything that’s ripe every time I go into the polytunnel so that I don’t end up with overripe tomatoes that drop onto the ground and squidge.

It’s all giggles at the surgery

I saw this when I parked at the surgery to pick up a prescription today.

I can’t deny that I laughed out loud.

If it wasn’t the owner of the vehicle who did it, I wonder how long it will take for them to notice?

A poor effort

Just managed the morning reading today

I think they’re missing the point

This plan for mental health centres is, I think, commendable.

What surprises me however is that they can still find enough open banks and libraries to make it work.

It’s all gone a bit wonky

This wasn’t a good start to the day.

Then I forgot the afternoon reading (it’s not a normal day if I remember them all 😀

In the evening I took a reading which was pretty much where I expected it to be other than the heart rate, which I find quite concerning.

So I took another one half an hour later. That wasn’t exactly much better.

The GP seems unstressed about this. I’m sure it can’t be good long-term though.

Scary on so many levels

Interview with a West Bank Jew

What the interviewee wants isn’t anything to do with punishment. It’s out and out genocide. Probably based on a hideously distorted view of his religion that tells him his views are right and anyone who doesn’t share them is less than human.

This quote is crazy:

“But this is the truth, because God chose us [and] because of this you are jealous.”

Grandad, we’re not jealous. Some of us have absolutely no belief in your (or any other) magic sky fairy and the only feelings we have towards you are that you’re delusional and need taking somewhere that you can’t hurt anyone.

The civilised world needs far fewer of these people. Preferably none at all.

And back to normal…

Yes, I forgot the evening reading again 😀

Everything pretty much where I expect it to be otherwise though.

A very tough day

Started fine in the morning, but 128/94 is way too low for me to cope with and the afternoon was basically a write-off. Things didn’t get much better in the evening, either 🙁

I can’t claim to be very happy with a heart rate of 100bpm when I’m not doing anything, either.

A small harvest from today.

Plenty of different tomatoes beginning to ripen, and our first courgette. May the glut commence! 😀

I also spent a little time picking blackberries. I shall pick more in a week or so.
