Home leave from tomorrow 13:00.

Meeting at Fieldhead 14:00 Monday; if weekend leave has gone well, full discharge.

Crying. It's nearly over.

This is wonderful news.

First night went well. We both mostly slept through the night, she's comfortable, she's happy to be in her own house and bed more than anything.

Community team have visited and looks like she can get access to free bus travel for up to three years plus a passport to leisure to use the local gym. She's got loads of TV to catch up on, Switch is charged, crochet needles are to hand, so she can keep busy as well.

Things are finally going good for us.

Christmas Day always feels so nice and lazy.

Good thing it's a Saturday, so I get 2 full days to recharge before starting work again.

Final discharge meeting today at 2.

She's nervous but I am not. It's been a normal boring weekend as far as I've seen it. I think she's just nervous because she doesn't want them to put her back in there and she's worried that they might do that for some reason or another (they won't).

Thanks mang, forgot to check in this morning, went well! Ended up having to wait for a good 3.5 hours for meds so we went on an approximately ten mile walk around Wakefield. She's a bit wiped today but overall things are good.

Beating Citeh. Also beat Arsenal, Spurs and the Bin Dippers already this season. Haven't felt this happy about a Utd team in years.

Wife had gotten me tickets to see HARRY POTTER & THE CURSED CHILD for Xmas, but she was sick and unable to attend with me, so I took my adult niece at the last minute, but we found it wonderful. I own the book/script for it and found it "fine".....but the performance was much better, and the production.....the production itself was the most insane and expensive and excellent production I've ever attended in a stage play. Some of the ingenious things they do to affect the wizarding world were amazing. Really worth the cost.

TIL the Gadgetmobile from INSPECTOR GADGET was a slightly modified 1983 Toyota Supra.

That's hella cool.

I did not know that. Cool.

More widely known.
The futuristic cars from Back to the Future 2 were modified 1989 Ford Probes.

Amazing!

I always loved the Police Car design in that flick. It always felt like a softer, less grim dark version of the Spinner from BLADE RUNNER. Like out of all the cars that fly in BTTF2, the police car is the one that looks most like it SHOULD fly.

Sidebar someone bought the prop from the movie which had been restored to it's movie-look after it had been left to rot on a backlot for decades...for $50,000.

Because we were on holiday at the time, Mr Not a Blacksmith and I gave up early on in the scrabble for tickets to Peter Kay's tour. I don't remember doing it, but I must have set up a ticket alert for the Leeds dates at the time.

Popped up yesterday with last minute availability - so we're going to see him tonight! :D

Was it cheap? Nope. Is it the sort of one-off that's worth it? Yep!

Looked up some of his standup comedy on Youtube. Couldn't understand a word, but from the context clues he's very funny!
