Scotland Yard has demanded to see dozens of emails between Prince Charles’ aides as they fixed a royal CBE honour for Saudi billionaire Mahfouz in exchange for a 1.5 million pound donation. New evidence shows Charles sent private thank you gift and letter to him after meeting him in England, Scotland and Saudi Arabia..

Celia, were you on blood pressure medication when you had your stroke?  Just curious because yesterday I went to a new doctor at the same practice who said mine is through the roof.  She wants me to buy a machine (around $100) and take it at different times during the day for two weeks and take the results back to her.   I’ve been seeing another  doctor in the same practice for 15 years who thought it inappropriate to put me on medication for blood pressure, so I’m curious.

That’s a seriously huge weight loss Celia, amazing when we are not feeling well, the appetite goes out the window.  Hope you feel better soon.

Please keep us updated regarding your recovery from that awful stroke, it could happen to any one of us at any time, so it’s important.

There must be lots of people like yourself Celia who cannot have the AZ, I hope for your sake the Pfizer becomes available  to you soon.

Once we get to 80% fully vaccinated, we are opening up to the world, NSW residents will be able to fly to Europe for a holiday but not the Gold Coast if the premier sticks to her guns.  Looks likely there will be a booster every year but basically, then we will have to take our chances as things go back to normal.  And those unvaccinated will be in big trouble.

Good one.  When you click on a happy face, a row of questions marks pops up.  Weird.

Hi Celia,

Glad you are getting the pneumonia vax, it should give you some sense of security, the new Sydney curfew should have some effect, although I can see a lot of young people rebelling against it by refuse to stay at home.

Under the new curfew, people from the 12 LGA hotspots — Bayside, Blacktown, Burwood, Campbelltown, Canterbury-Bankstown, Cumberland, Fairfield, Georges River, Liverpool, Parramatta, Strathfield and some suburbs in Penrith — must stay home from 9:00pm to 5:00am.

We have to wait another 3 weeks for the second AZ, can’t come soon enough.  Husband can’t lawn bowl (all clubs are shut) so he’s filling the gap by making meat and fruit pies, experimenting with puff pastry and even making his own.  He also bought a kitchen gadget that has 100 spikes that he punches the steak with to make it tender.  His carrot cake was amazing, it had crushed pineapple in it and lasted for days and was as moist as the day it was cooked.

But I’m getting fat.
