Pinged

No, not me! Thankfully, nothing to do with the covid app. The seeds on this wild geranium in the 'yard have started to 'ping' out of their seed pods. But the number of Covid cases in the town are rising exponentially, and are apparently at their highest since the beginning of the pandemic...

Not please to discover, as I was getting ready for bed last night, a large tick very firmly embedded in the top of my leg. An awkward place to get to, but luckily MrM removed most of it with tweezers and a sterilised needle. Hopefully the last tiny bit will work its way out. Just need to keep an eye out for an ominous rash over the next few weeks. Here's hoping!
