It's a cool grey Saturday, temperature about 9 C. Thanks for all the contributions to the Daily, appreciated seeing the photos of today's port, @kazu Jacqui your garden is a credit to you. Chicken and vegetables on our menu for dinner this evening. @HAL Sailer sorry to read of the tractor accident, thankfully help was nearby, very best wishes to your DH's nephew for his recovery. @durangoscots wishing you a very Happy Birthday. Thanks for the Lemonade Pie recipes, @ger_77 what weight is the instant pudding pack? DH has decided to build a Catio for our newly adopted cat. Stay safe, take care everyone.

A quick brief post, am very late after a muddly day. @kazu DH suggested that Jose's books may be of benefit to medical students. @StLouisCruiserssorry that your DH has also tested positive, Hope you are able to get some relief from the cough medication. Stay safe, take care everyone.

@cat shepard When I asked why we were chosen, was told that it was entirely random,the survey request being sent to thousands of addresses around the country, if the occupiers did not make contact with the statistics dept, a staff member would be sent to the address to arrange a time for the survey. This was completely separate from the Census.

Bon Voyage Everyone!

It's a very cold day, wind feels like it has come directly from the South Pole. Thanks for all the daily reports, used to be a blood donor, but had to stop as we had lived in England when "mad cow" disease was infecting the animals. We have visited Alofi Nuie while cruising on the Maasdam. @Rowsby so sorry that Casey has crossed the Rainbow bridge. @marshhawk hope that the treatment helps Bobagingee. @smitty34877 you have a very caring neighbour offering to help with Tana. @kazu thanks for the photos of your lovely garden, yesterday I thought that your Hostas are looking superb. The Lily of the Valley is lovely. @StLouisCruisers so sorry to hear that you have tested positive, hope you have a mild case and that your DH remains negative.. Sending big hugs to you. Stay safe, take care everyone.

@cat shepard the survey was quite different to the census, our address was randomly chosen, some of the information could have been obtained from other sources, for instance, the value of our house. They needed to know our income, can we afford to buy clothes, shop at supermarket etc. Some of the questions were about ability to self shower, dress, walk ,walk stairs, vision, hearing. Each individual occupant of the house had to respond to the questions.

Am late to post today, missed yesterday as we had to do a Statistics department household survey....a compulsory survey. Have not been to today's port, thanks for the photos and information. @Heartgrove sincere condolences on the passing of your sister, pleased that you were able to spend that time with her. @ger_77 the angel wings are beautiful. @Vict0riann my DH also had that procedure after his cataract surgery. @smitty34877 what a horrible experience, thank goodness for the gas alarm. Hope that the repairs will be completed quickly. @Crazy For Cats congratulations on the upsell to the Neptune Suite. Enjoy. @kazu Welcome back, am so pleased to see you posting again on the "Daily". Managed to go for my walk between rain showers this afternoon. Best wishes to all on the Care List. Stay safe, take care everyone.
