Blue Origin’s space flight, pirate names, onion harvest and twin temperature top tips

Grumpy is really excited about the successful Blue Origin space flight, which took the oldest and the youngest person into space. Lippy was relieved that Wally Funk had a windows seat, however as Grumpy explained it, the capsule was similar to a very fast conservatory, with plenty of opportunity to see the view.

Lippy has been on a trip to Cornwall to see a friend, has consumed many pasties and the odd ice cream. Her friend’s dog’s first swimming lesson didn’t go well, however he was back in the water the next day so no harm done!

We discuss the pirate name of various family members and friends, great fun!

We have a rant about people being horrible and also not considering any other view than their own and we’re reminded of the saying “When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser”

Grumpy has harvested 10kg of onions and garlic and is very pleased.

The sink hole outside Grumpy’s house is nearly complete and he’s been wondering whether the digger could be hotwired for a bit of evening fun.

We have twin temperature top tips and a medical fact.
