Day 2356 Just like back home.

25th January 2024

The two pints of Old Speckled Hen went down a treat with Bangers and Mash. Talk about an English meal, although it was an Irish themed pub, it was still great.

We finally arranged an evening out with Scott and Karen from down the road. Scott often stops to see what we are doing, sometimes he brings me stuff from his mother’s house, that belonged to his father. He is over six feet tall, and has a few health issues.

“I died last night” he once told us “but my pacemaker kicked in and I didn’t know anything about it”

Now I didn’t know that a pacemaker was supposed to do that.

“ The only reason I knew” he said “was the doctors office phoned me up and told me”

Apparently they monitor his pacemaker, wow! They do that here, what else do they listen into.

Some say that fridges send information back to the manufacturer sharing details of food usage.

I think ours should, but as we don’t speak Italian it doesn’t understand us.

Scott has other issues, like the time he passed out in his car and crashed into a tree, that was the start of his heart issues.

I’ve asked him to tell us when he’s out and about again so that we can stay home.

Karen is a graphic artist, she sketched all the time and some of he drawing are so detailed, if you stand still long enough she’ll draw on the back of your head.

It was a fun evening, Kelli managed to find out their political leanings, alway a good idea avoiding treading on dangerous territory. Of course once you start the conversation, you can’t stop them, so it’s time for, another beer.
