Sick lakeland moaner and the nephews of Oz

November was a rubbish month, did make my 200K today, but it was a struggle.

Was ill most of the month, end of last month I was flattened by the dual Covid/Flu vaccines, then after recovering I came down with flu and a lung infection. Things got so bad I called the doctor surgery and even got an appointment same day! Was put on antibiotic and steroid, but it didn't clear my lungs, so went back again and was given another drug which did not a lot, though my lungs slowly improved days after the drugs. This blog is becoming the musings of a permanently ill old git.

Anyway, I hope next month is better, that next year is better, as am pissed off that my immune system seems to be on strike!

Oh well, at least I am still on the go, other people have more serious afflictions, my dad is not doing good at the moment, though he was better today than he was last Friday when I visited. 

My nephews Philip and Oliver I last saw on Friday, they are now on the other side of the world, in Melbourne to be exact, off for at least a year, possibly 2 years, maybe forever. Apparently you get an extra year on a one year working visa if you do farm work for x amount of time, the possibility to stay longer arises if you get an employer to sponsor you, this could lead to permanent residency. Either that or they marry some Australian bird :-) 

I spent 3 nights alone down in Ulverston last week, its a place I know well, and really I did almost nothing there, apart from supporting the hospitality industry. The one good day was the Tuesday when I walked up to the hoad monument after walking the lovely canal.


Font and set out getting my tits, so I'll post anyway, good bloody bye Novemebr.
