Only one word needed.
I started to write a new post this morning. The words had started to flow, then I realised that I would not have time to finish it so I left it in drafts. I will revisit it tomorrow and add a bit more to it.
I am still dog sitting during the afternoon, then I had to go shopping to Aldi. I went back to Carols house after to take Billy a walk and I sat with him until 7pm. Carols daughter has taken him back to her house for the night. She will let me know when she brings him back tomorrow then I will take over, while she goes to the hospital to see if her mum can come home.
I went to the big Aldi, because there is a hold up of traffic going through roadworks near the smaller store. I thought it's best to give that a wide berth. The big Aldi is near the motorway roundabout on a retail park. There is a layby just there, it's a favourite pull in for a break before lorry drivers join the M180 to head south. This is what I saw in the layby. Lucky that I had a camera in my pocket. Take a look at this amazing beast.
Carol is still in hospital and is expected to be allowed home sometime today. I will walk Billy and sit with him for a while.
A comment has arrived from someone who is just not getting the message from me. Why do they keep coming back if they don't like what I say? I may publish and reply, or I may chuck it in the bin. They need to sort their own life out.
Enjoy your Sunday. Toodle pip. ilona
Saturday morning and my viewing is with Professor Peter C Gotzsche, while I drink my first coffee. Here is a flavour of this eight minute video.
"Big pharma is organised crime. In November 2014, I explained this in an interview that has been seen by half a million people on YouTube. I have now uploaded it on my own website. I said that our prescription drugs are the third leading cause of death, after heart disease and cancer. In 2024, I did more detailed studies and found that our drugs are the leading cause of death, and psychiatric drugs alone are the third leading cause of death. We should therefore take far fewer drugs than we take, which would lead to longer and better lives."
So then I go searching for more information, and find lots more from Mr Gotzsche.
Here is a longer version. 1 hour 16 minutes.
You may be interested in his conspiracy theories, but as we all know, often the theories turn out to be true. By the way I am not an influencer. People can form their own opinion, and either take note, or skip past this post. My blog is about what I do, how I spend my time, where I go, who I see, and my thoughts on a wide range of different subjects.I am on extra dog walking duties this weekend. My friend Carol, Billy dogs mum, she's in her eighties, has had a fall. She was taken to hospital this morning and they are keeping her in overnight. I took Billy out this afternoon, sat with him in his home, then brought him back to my house with me. I didn't know what was going to happen because he doesn't like cats. It went quite well. He was a bit confused, was probably thinking, why am I here. Mayze glared at him from her camp out on the table. He walked around the house looking for dropped cat food crumbs. Mayze never moved from her position. Mickey was upstairs and Oscar was outside.
Carols daughter has taken him home with her to stay the night. She also has a cat so let's hope the night goes without incidents. Sharon will bring him back in the morning and I will look after him for the rest of the day. She will go to the hospital to speak to the doctors and ask if Carol is able to come home.
I had an email the other day from my friend June, also in her eighties. She had a fall three weeks ago, which has done a lot of damage. She is being looked after in a care home.
This makes me think I should be more careful as I move about. It would be disastrous if I became immobile through a fall. No family to look after me. I have tripped up on brambles a couple of times while reaching to pick up litter. I am not superwoman and need to think about my limitations.
I go about things a lot more slowly now. Holding onto a handrail as I go up and down stairs. Concentrating on what I am doing and not getting distracted. Being more mindful about my surroundings. It's easy to let your mind wander. One foot wrong and you can be down on your arse in no time. I have never had a broken bone so I don't want to start now. That reminds me. I have run out of calcium supplements, I need to get some more.
Enjoy your weekend. Toodle pip. ilona
There is always something new to learn, that's why I spend time reading. Not books, but on the desk top computer. I have just had my morning coffee and toast listening to this interview. I came across Dr Reese a few weeks ago and was suspicious that he might be a fake doctor, a charlatan. He speaks very slowly and very calmly. He doesn't waste words on waffle, he is very precise with his diction. He puts out a lot of short videos, and has written a lot of books He has amassed millions of followers. There is a collection of his short videos on his faceboook page.
You may want to check him out, or you may want to ignore this post.
Have a good weekend. Toodle pip. ilona
Shorter daylight hours means less litter picking. I won't be picking in the rain either. During the winter months I will be a fair weather picker. Today I went to the Industrial Estate, I thought I would tackle Park Farm Road, there is plenty of grot stuck in the hedge bottom. Behind the hedge is a wooden fence, and behind that is a metal fence. There is a gap between the two fences but it means scrambling through the hedge to get it all out. I picked as much as I could reach with the stick, but will go back and see if I can get in between the two fences.

Let's start the day with a laff. Some poor sad soul checks in to my blog every night, and spits forth a load of bollocks. I put extra posts out to keep them happy. What would they do if I wasn't here for them. Would they bully someone else? Will I stop blogging? Don't be silly, of course I won't. Onward and upward I say. Toodle pip. Have a nice day. ilona
Oh dear, where has this post gone. The art of deleting.
Hooooray I have finished this mandala. It is eight and a half inches across. The background is a piece of black fabric. The hoop is wrapped with pink ribbon. The big coloured stones were given to me by Jane at the Crafty Club. I have picked up some of the trimmings from Arts and Craft Fairs. The Range shop has a pretty good selection of trimmings for crafters. Everything is stitched on, I don't use glue. The back is fully enclosed.

Smashing up France is just part of the global plan. It will spread, it is already spreading across other Western World countries. It may have started with students being dissatisfied with the education they are getting, but light that fuse and chuck it into a city centre and the violence will quickly accelerate.
I saw some footage of the clean up operation in one city. Strangely not all shops had been looted and set on fire. In between the boarded up wrecks were several shops which hadn't been touched at all. Why was that? It is said that the rioters, students initially, had been joined by every other protest group you can think of. It is also said that they had a list of shops they wanted to destroy. This makes me think that some forward planning had been done behind the scenes. Rather than it being wanton destruction by a gang of hooligans, the shops were on a hit list. They knew what they were looking for.
What we are seeing is the total destruction of western civilisation. Millions of people being implanted in countries around the world, countries that they have no connection with. Facilitated by the richest people on earth. I used the word 'invasion' a long tome ago, and that's what it is. You can be sure that the riots will come to the UK.
All these distractions that we read about are part of the bigger plan. The list is too long to write about here. Stopping the boat crossings, and those who enter the UK in other ways, would slow down the invasion. But they, the Government, won't do it.
THE WORLD'S BIGGEST BANKS ARE CRASHING, AND IT IS A MAJOR WARNING FOR STOCK MARKETS.This is at the heart of it. Money of course. The Globalists want a level playing field. One Government, one religion, one currency. Get rid of all those who are costing Governments money. Hoover up all those disadvantaged people who don't have very much, distribute them into all the richer countries to even things up. A Robin Hood scheme, take from the rich, give to the poor. Trafficking people while destroying the fabric of established societies. Except the richest at the top of the pyramid will become even richer, and they will have control. A bit like Amazon closing all small local shops. People fall for it.
I will not enter into any discussions on this subject. I have neither the time of the inclination.

PS. Short video from Matt Goodwin.
It's been a murky day today. Dull and overcast. Best stay indoors this afternoon, and do some sewing. I knocked up this video. Something to laff about. Today I'm in the pink.
Another “independent” think tank has declared that Britain cannot cope with global crises unless we rejoin the EU. It wants to build a strategy to persuade people to all change their mind and agree to re join. I think fear seems to be the main persuasion tactic.
The Institute for Public Policy Research is a ‘progressive’ unelected organisation
And look who funds this think tank (from its own figures)…
Up to £750,000 from George Soros’s Open Society Foundation.
Up to £775,000 from Quadrature Climate Foundation.
Up to £350,000 from the European Climate Foundation.
Funding from Labour Together.
