Log pile envy.  Woodburning stove is only heating here now since I stopped ordering gas.  It is COLD and we are almost out of logs.

Hope DH escapes custody Weds

So hoping to collect himself tomorrow. Had chat to GP (about me I mean, not DH).

He has his own nightclothes on today instead of a hospital gown so that must feel better.

I'm reading the most awful book. Spelling mistake on first page, dude doesn't realise indices is not a plural...

There's nothing more off-putting in a book. I hope the rest of it is ok!

Fingers crossed you get DH home tomorrow. I had an appointment at a hospital in your neck of the woods that involved a 5 hour round trip. I thought the drive was bad but then I got lost trying to find the entrance, then couldn't find my car again. Hospitals are exhausting even without being ill or worried.

You're not kidding about hospitals. Stressful.

One good thing is the first car park I tried turned out to be close enough to keep using it. That NEVER happens to me.

LOL - I have remains of tree strewn down the side of our house... I have log pile envy - and I only have a fire pit - so have log burner envy too although they seem to want to outlaw those.... Stands well back...

Is that just in built up areas?

This will be a PM 2.5 thing

I get very ranty if there's a spelling or editorial mistake in a book and refuse to read the rest.  The book often ends up in the bin as it's not fit for reading.

I have absolutely dire spelling abilities and my grammar and editorial skills are next to zero but if I find one, it must be bad.

Fingers crossed release goes well tomorrow. He will heal much better in his own bed.

I don't seem to mind a real typo, but really hate the there when it should be their.  Books used to have editors who used to make sure that sort of thing didn't get through.

Unfortunately it doesn't pay well, so we had to go and get proper jobs...
