  1. @alysonsee I cried at this. To consider an act of kindness the best Christmas-pressie, does that imply your poor neighbour is not at the receiving-end of much kindness? #LoveInAction aka #agapē aka #kindness can cost nothing and each act can be priceless. Bless you both! 🙏🏻🌈💕🤓

  2. My ‘orange‘ #risotto topped with #asparagus (SP). (This portion was 1.5 #syns on the #SlimmingWorld regimen.) Accompanying was a #lamb-chop - removing the fat meant it was #SynFree. And a wee Padrón pepper (SP) - luckily it was not an ultra-hot one! Smothered in freshly-ground black-pepper (FREE). Very tasty repast. 🤤

  3. A delicious, healthy and filling meal prepared by el Chico (housemate): smoked-salmon (FREE) off-cuts (they mostly charge less per kilo), eggs (FREE) and half-a-bag of baby-spinach (SP). Served on a half a wholemeal toasted bagel (HB) makes a smashing Christmas morning breakie - although the Bucks Fizz that accompanies it might be a tad synful on #SlimmingWorld regimen!

  4. Another & , but this time quite watchable - if one ignores the preposterousness of this actually funny rom-com, (2023). TH’s hair looks a bedraggled mess throughout, but p’raps matches her exuberant character. plays an (uncharacteristically for ) introverted love-interest. I should view again, but donæ recommend one searches it out.

  5. Another #TeriHatcher & #DanPayne #ChristmasMovie, but this time quite watchable - if one ignores the preposterousness of this actually funny rom-com, #ChristmasAtTheChalet (2023). TH’s hair looks a bedraggled mess throughout, but p’raps matches her exuberant character. #WilliamDeVry plays an (uncharacteristically for #ChristmasFilms) introverted love-interest.

  7. #GoodFriday dinner: baked, fresh salmon; boiled, new potatoes; steamed asparagus; boiled petits pois; steamed, purple-sprouting broccoli; lemon; tartare-sauce. Delish! The chilled #GrünerVeltliner 🇦🇹 was a refreshing accompaniment.

  8. The easiest way to save every UK householder money in relation to the #CostOfEnergy is to vote, to vote for a party that is willing to either adequately regulate the #EnergyMarket or re-#nationalise the #EnergyCompanies. Are there any #PoliticalParties with such policies?

    Image is a screenshot of #BEIS advert about saving pennies from #twitter - #UKgov not worried about supporting Musk!

  9. Not long since finished re-watching #AScandalInBelgavia, my all-time favourite episode of the BBC's #Sherlock. I always laugh so much. I always weep so much (there is a pile of damp tissues by me as I type). The love-stories (note plural) hit me every single time I view this televisual masterpiece. #LaraPulver is a superb foil to SH and #TheOtherWoman to #TheWoman, in this instance #Watson. ;) If the series is ever resurrected I hope they bring by my fave #dominatrix.

  10. @tomkindlon I disagree with pts. 2 & 5. Having #SevereME I do very much #suffer with/from #MyalgicEncephalomyeltis. #NICE use the term ‘mild’ however infuriating - using different terminology is not necessarily helpful. In this case ref. to #NG206 / #NICE classification &/or the caveat re 50% loss of function ought to be included in articles.

  11. @tomkindlon I have shared your post, Tom, as I agree that we need to share, collate & analyse the treatment experiences of #pwME. However, given that these posts can be read in isolation, I must add the caveat that #NICE via #NG206 advises that no treatment can cure #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis only d/w symptoms.

  12. @FrooView
    Housemate is finally en route home (now 23.23) and will give me a meal idc, more than 26 hours since my last.

    With #SevereME one is supposed to eat & drink small quantities and often.

    Per #NICE guideline #NG206 1.12.21:

    “Encourage people with #MECFS who have nausea to keep up adequate fluid intake and advise them to try to eat regularly, taking small amounts often. Explain that not eating or drinking may increase their nausea.”

  13. 4/4 #VerySevereME

    “Very severe ME/CFS

    People with very severe #MECFS are in bed all day and dependent on care. They need help with personal hygiene and eating, and are very sensitive to sensory stimuli. Some people may not be able to swallow and may need to be tube fed.”

  14. 3/4 #SevereME

    People with severe #MECFS are unable to do any activity for themselves or can carry out minimal daily tasks only… They have severe cognitive difficulties and may depend on a wheelchair for mobility. They are often unable to leave the house or have a severe and prolonged after-effect if they do so. They may also spend most of their time in bed and are often extremely sensitive to light and sound.

  15. 2/4 #ModerateME

    Moderate ME/CFS
    People with moderate #MECFS have reduced mobility and are restricted in all activities of daily living, although they may have peaks and troughs in their level of symptoms and ability to do activities. They have usually stopped work or education, and need rest periods, often resting in the afternoon for 1 or 2 hours. Their sleep at night is generally poor quality and disturbed.

  16. 1/4 #MildME

    “Mild ME/CFS
    People with mild #MECFS care for themselves and do some light domestic tasks (sometimes needing support) but may have difficulties with mobility. Most are still working or in education, but to do this they have probably stopped all leisure and social pursuits. They often have reduced hours, take days off and use the weekend to cope with the rest of the week.”

  17. #HarryPotter fans, who knew!

    #BOGGART, s. - A bugbear or scarecrow, an unreality and thing powerless to do injury, which works in a frightening way on the imagination.”

    ‘Cheshire Glossary’, p.25 in “A Glossary of Words Used in the #Dialect of #Cheshire”, Egerton Leigh, 1877.

  18. Many folk will never have heard of or have forgotten the life-long actor #CliffRobertson. In 1978 the mini-series #WashingtonBehindClosedDoors (1977) was broadcast in UK, and I developed a man-crush on the character of William Martin! Ha ha ha Some will recall CR’s rôle as #UncleBen in the noughties’ #Spiderman saga.
