Bright and breezy ... most of the time
25th
April 2018 (Wednesday)
.... 08.00 We have a ‘bright and
breezy’
morning, though there is a chilly feel to the air: it reminded me of a crackin’ September morning
in Windischgarsten in Austria. That
was 19 years ago.

It is a lovely morning for a walk, and it should
be warm out of the wind. I’ll go for a
walk, somewhere, in the afternoon.... the diet begins today, and involves not
eating between meals, drinking much water, and doing a lot of exercise.
21.00 There was a good turnout for Jimmy Preston’s funeral,
at Kinneuchar Cemetery, this morning.
The weather was dry, though there was a cool breeze. The
Minister gave an excellent, Service,
and tribute, at the graveside; awakening many memories. Yes, Jimmy got a good ‘send off’. Sadly I couldn’t go to the cuppa
afterwards: my computer had been ‘hacked’
and was sending out messages to all my contacts in Messenger; and I wanted to sort it out. I don’t use Messenger, but do occasionally get
messages inward; which I try to
answer. Anyway I have now changed my
password .... which is about all I can do.
Contacting FB is a waste of time.
I did scan the computer, but this is not a virus; it’s just the Dregs of Society doing what
they do.

We
have had a lovely, if cool day.... with a few, ‘April showers’. I had a washing on the line, but it was dry,
and in, before the showers hit. This
has been a frustrating day for me; with the computer being contaminated. I’m annoyed with myself because I clicked
on a message that told me someone was trying to get in touch; I must have ‘opened’ it for long enough to
let the ‘poison’ in. The thing is I
can’t disable Messenger apparently;
which is what I would do, because I use e-mail for
messaging – I. ‘Chat’ is never ‘on’.

| ANZAC Day. |
With
this being ANZAC Day I have flown the New Zealand flag. ANZAC Day commemorates the day that the Australians
and New Zealanders landed at Gallipoli, in 1915. There was strong resistance from a well
entrenched Ottoman Army, resulting in heavy losses for the ANZAC force.
Our
weather for tomorrow is another repeat of what we have had today; ‘bright and breezy’ with April showers.
