[This Afternoon playing of MadTrollie:[Bach]:]*

   Except for a couple of trips made by-way-of the halls first just before 07:00 for a couple of items from the breakfast buffet & once just before sitting down to prepare to write this post for an afternoon toffee coffee I haven't been out of my rooms for the rest of the day and have no intention of doing so..and may not venture out tomorrow either.. although the weather looks reasonable tomorrow a check of my pantry and frig(s) tells me that I really don't have a pressing need to walk until maybe Monday or Tuesday..but something may come up..or I might just decide to take a walk..dealing with the weekend shopper during the pre-Christmas season is not what I care to do..../....It hasn't rained that hard most of the day..more a light rain or what we called back in the day an intermittent drizzle.. now if necessary I do have appropriate rain gear to deal with it..but it better be a life or death crises..../....and maybe not even then..../...I'm far too old to take more than the slightest of risk or even less likely to play the "hero"...../....
