@variablepulserate I’ve just watched the two new Dune films. They were better than I expected.
@variablepulserate Wow. Mine is a 2012 model and it's fast approaching the 30,000 mile mark. 🤔 Well, not fast, it's actually on 28,924, but hopefully I'll add 600 to that when I get up to Yorkshire next month.
@nitinkhanna I'm not averse to a spot of birdwatching, as long as it’s not competitive. I enjoy being able to identify some of the birds I see or hear. I definitely enjoy seeing more rare birds. It was a real treat to see the only known albatross in the northern hemisphere. I enjoy watching birds of prey, and birds in the forest when I’m out early. They make quite challenging photography subjects, too. Time slows and it’s good to pause for a while. Currently YouTube is doing a good job with some live nest cams of ospreys not far from me.

@variablepulserate Ooh that sounds like rather good fun. Perhaps not with a nosey Schnauzer on the loose - though most of the time I'm gardening I have to shut her indoors, because she’s an absolute pest.
@peemee You’ve had a rough time of it recently. Intractable pain is very demoralising. I hope you get some relief soon.
@variablepulserate It’s much better now. A bit tender in places, but nothing significant. And the way it responds to external sensation is back in line with my other fingers - for a while everything felt different when touched with that finger. There’s a slight dent along the line of the cut, but that’s probably less noticeable than the redness and swelling of the nearby joint which is arthritis. I was lucky, could have been a whole lot worse.
@variablepulserate That’s good news! Tendon issues are awful - I’ve had issues with various ones over the years. The pain can be really nasty.
