Cherry picker

…to the rescue. We had an electricity cut at our power pole this morning. It only affected our house and is probably the cause of all the power problems we have had lately. The wire had rusted or worn away. The power company came and fixed it within 30 minutes. Wow. What a great service. 

My day. Sciatica day 10. I am still only comfortable lying flat but the drugs seem more suitable. I even had a sleep last night.  

We have had a series of thunderstorms today. Nothing much else to report.
